NR25 series encoders - Modbus TCP/IP

Automated Control Engineering Group (A.C.E) and AMCI announce the newest EtherNet-based communications protocol supported by the robust NR25 series encoders - Modbus TCP/IP. These heavy duty rotary sensors provide an overall measuring range of 16 bits (single-turn resolution) plus 14 bits (number of revolutions), or 30 bits total. With both single-turn and multi-turn versions available, AMCI’s Modbus TCP/IP encoders are ready for any application.

NR25 Modbus TCP/IP Encoder Features:

• Up to 30 bit (65536 steps x 16384 revolutions) Resolution
• Absolute Single-turn and Multi-turn
• Power over EtherNet (PoE)
• Resolver-based Durability
• IP67 Ingress Protection Rating
• Solid Shaft and Hub Shaft Versions
• Stainless Steel Units Available

The NR25 encoder is resolver based, meaning that it is designed to provide absolute position feedback without glass discs or sensitive LED components; enabling it to withstand high levels of shock and vibration. The IP67 rated package is the solution for single-turn and multi-turn position applications requiring protection from dust and water ingress. Stainless steel versions are also available for food grade and marine environments.

AMCI NR25 Series encoders are now available with both Modbus TCP and EtherNet/IP connectivity. Profibus connectivity will be added to the NR25 series later this year.
