SICK A3M60 PROFIBUS Series Absolute Absolute Encoder, 8192 ppr, 15mm Shaft

OverviewAt a glanceRugged absolute multiturn encoder with up to 31 bits (14-bit singleturn and 17-bit multiturn) Face mount flange, servo flange or blind hollow shaft Compact design (<70 mm) Integrated PROFIBUS interface with DP V0, V1, and V2 functionality (depending on type) Connectivity: 3 x M12 male connector Protection class up to IP67 Operating temperature: –30 to +80 °C (depending on type)Your BenefitMaximum system throughput, even under extreme ambient conditions Reduced maintenance costs due to wear-free magnetic singleturn and multiturn scanning Space-saving and cost-efficient design - the best solution, particularly when installation space is limited High productivity thanks to fast communication and position calculation Immune to contamination and condensation - ideal for tough ambient conditions High performance at a cost-efficient priceThe A3M60 PROFIBUS is an extremely rugged absolute multiturn encoder inside a 60 mm housing. Maximum reliability even in the harshest of ambient conditions is attained by means of magnetic scanning, both with singleturn and multiturn detection. New singleturn technology combines the durability of a magnetic sensor with high resolutions, previously only possible with optical systems. The innovative, gearless multiturn technology keeps the number of moving components on the A3M60 to a minimum. This results in a long service life with low maintenance costs and consequently optimum system availability. The highly compact technology in single and multiturn detection provides the user a space-saving and cost-efficient solution. Together with the integrated PROFIBUS interface, the A3M60 is particularly suited for applications where installation space is tight.ApplicationsMeasurement of absolute position in various machines and systems such as palletizers, high-bay warehouses, cranes, presses, printing machines Position detection of the crane gripper Monitoring the positions of wafer carriers Positioning and speed measurement Positioning the lift SICK encoders for crane systems Adjustment of the spreader for containers of different sizes Synchronization of drive motors in the hot rolling process Rotary valve operation for carbon and sinter supply Position detection of furnace door in collection and holding furnacesNote
