Rotary sensors are available for EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP/IP, Profibus, or DeviceNet communication.

July 31, 2011 - Advanced Micro Controls (AMCI), announces their size 25 (2.5” diameter, or 63mm) rotary encoders are available for EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP/IP, Profibus, or DeviceNet communication, with both single-turn and multi-turn versions.

Package Specifications

AMCI networked rotary encoders are offered in a 2.5” diameter package. Solid shaft and hub shaft versions are available, and both types incorporate an oversized double row bearing that supports shaft loads up to 100 lbs radial / 50 lbs axial. These encoders are resolver based, meaning that they are designed to provide absolute position feedback without glass discs or sensitive LED components; enabling them 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. Leveraging over twenty years of experience in the design, development, and manufacturing of resolvers, AMCI boasts one of the industry’s most comprehensive offerings of heavy-duty encoder products.
