LP12 Optical Rotary Encoder

About LP12 Optical Rotary Encoder

Quantum Devices Model LP12 optical encoder provides an improved feedback solution in applications typically using modular encoders. With an overall height of less than one inch and the stability of a bearing encoder design, model LP12 can provide significant performance upgrades in applications limited by traditional modular encoder solutions. Outputs consist of a quadrature with index pulse (incremental or sinusoidal) and three-phase commutation. A flexible member allows for much greater tail shaft run out and TIR than can be tolerated by modular encoder designs, plus it provides 30 degrees of rotation for commutation timing.
