The new dual output option for the HS35 hollow
shaft encoder from BEI provides redundant encoder signals to help ensure maximum
control system reliability. This feature uses two sets of internal electronics
to send identical isolated output signals to two separate connectors. If one
output becomes electrically damaged, the user can move the cable from one
connector to the other.
The dual output feature also has the capability to supply two separate controllers from a single encoder. Since the connectors are mechanically parallel and electrically isolated, connecting to a second controller and routing the cable is straightforward. Now you can save the cost and space of a second encoder with a single installation.
The HS35 series encoder is a hollow shaft design with a cast metal housing and dual preloaded bearings for reliability. Rotating shaft seals and a sealed connector give it NEMA 4, 13 and IP65 ratings. It can accommodate a variety of shafts bores, up to 1" in diameter, and has a compact installed package length of just over 2". This makes the HS35 useful for equipment with constrained axial encoder mounting space.
