ROBUST HIGH RESOLUTION ABSOLUTE ENCODERS

POSITAL has introduced new communication

interfaces for its high-precision line of IXARC

magnetic rotary encoders. These versatile, com-

pact and cost-effective devices are now available

with PROFIBUS, PROFINET, EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP

and POWERLINK interfaces. POSITAL’s precision

IXARC magnetic encoders provide a maximum re-

solution of 16 bit, 12 bit accuracy and rapid dyna-

mic response that rivals the best optical encoders.

Based on magnetic measurement technology, the-

se rugged devices are engineered to operate reli-

ably in wet and dirty conditions. Multiturn models

count any desired number of revolutions, provided

by a unique self-powered revolution counting sys-

tem that keeps track of absolute positions under all

conditions.

New Communication Interfaces for IXARC Magnetic Encoders

ROBUST HIGH RESOLUTION ABSOLUTE ENCODERS

POSITAL VersatilityPOSITAL’s field bus and industrial Ethernet enco-

ders offer many advantages in factory automation

control systems and process industries. Simplified

wiring, diagnostic LEDs and messaging combined

with available real-time communication ensure in-

stallation, production and maintenance all occur

smoothly.

POSITAL Variety No other encoder manufacturer can rival the vari-

ety that POSITAL offers. Optional stainless steel

housings are appropriate for food and beverage,

marine and chemical applications. ATEX and IECEx

approved housings offer further protection in oil and

gas industry.

A Million PossibilitiesLike other POSITAL sensors, IXARC encoders

are available with multiple options for housing size

and materials, flange configuration, shaft type and

diameter, connection/wiring type and level of en-

vironmental protection. The online product finder

at www.posital.com helps users navigate this

wide range of available models and provides more than 280,000 specific data sheets in 11 different

languages.

Fast Delivery From the CloudPOSITAL encoders are assembled in a state-of-the-

art facility using a cloud-based manufacturing sys-

tem. Each sensor is built to order and assembled to

meet a customer’s specifications, simplifying ins-

tallation and reducing costs.
