Pepperl+Fuchs RHI90N-0IAK1R61N-01024 is an incremental rotary encoder. Here is a detailed introduction:
General Information
Manufacturer: Pepperl+Fuchs, a renowned and leading professional sensor company founded in 1945. It has extensive experience and a high reputation in the sensor field.
Model: RHI90N-0IAK1R61N-01024. The "RHI90N" indicates the series of the rotary encoder, and the subsequent characters represent specific features and parameters. For example, "0IAK1R61N" might represent details such as the output type, housing material, and shaft characteristics, while "01024" indicates the number of pulses per revolution, which is 1024 in this case.
Technical Characteristics
Measurement Principle: It adopts photoelectric sampling technology. Through photoelectric conversion, it can convert mechanical quantities such as the angular displacement and angular velocity of the output shaft into corresponding electrical pulses and output them in digital form. This enables precise measurement of rotational motion.
Electrical Specifications:
Power Supply Voltage: Usually operates within a voltage range of 10 - 30V DC or 5V DC ± 5%, which is suitable for a variety of power supply conditions in different industrial environments.
Output Type: It may have output types such as push - pull and RS - 422. The push - pull output is suitable for driving some load devices directly due to its large load - carrying capacity, while the RS - 422 output is suitable for long - distance transmission and occasions requiring high anti - interference ability.
Other Parameters: The no - load current is typically up to 70mA, and the maximum load current is 40mA/channel for push - pull, incremental output and 20mA/channel for RS - 422, incremental output. The maximum output frequency can reach 200kHz, with a rise time of 600ns and a power - off delay of 600ns.
Mechanical Characteristics:
Compact Design: With a housing diameter of 90mm, it has a small volume, which is suitable for installation in environments with limited space.
Hollow Shaft Option: It provides hollow shaft specifications ranging from 16mm to 45mm, which is convenient for integration with various mechanical structures, allowing for flexible installation according to different application requirements.
High - Quality Materials: The housing is made of aluminum, the flange is 3.1645 aluminum, and the shaft is stainless steel 1.4305/AISI 303. The total mass is approximately 900g. Optionally, it can be equipped with an insulating sleeve made of PPS GF40 material, with inner diameters of 16mm, 25mm, 30mm, and 38mm available, and an insulation voltage of 3kV.
Performance Advantages:
High - Precision Measurement: With 1024 pulses per revolution, it can provide relatively high - resolution and accurate measurement results, which is suitable for applications requiring precise control.
Strong Stability: The encoder is enhanced with shaft insulation through a durable plastic insulating sleeve, which improves its stability and reliability during operation. In addition, it has excellent functional safety - related parameters, such as an MTTFd (Mean Time To Failure) of 140a and a mission time (TM) of 20a, ensuring long - term stable operation.
High Protection Level: With an IP65 protection level, it can effectively prevent dust from entering and protect against water spray, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments, such as those with dust and water vapor.
Application Areas
This encoder is widely used in various industrial automation fields, such as CNC machine tools, textile machinery, metallurgical machinery, printing machinery, plastic machinery, testing machines, elevators, motors, and instrumentation. It is also used in industries such as material handling, logistics, and packaging. It is suitable for applications that require monitoring of rotational speed, velocity, acceleration, and direction. In addition, through the use of racks, measuring wheels, and constant - force openers, it can also be used to measure the linear motion position.
