Nemicon OSS-02-2HC OSS series Encoders with HC suffix

The Nemicon OSS-02-2HC is an incremental encoder in the OSS series, designed for precision motion control applications. The "HC" suffix typically indicates a voltage output type with enhanced noise immunity, making it suitable for industrial environments. Here are its key specifications:

Technical Specifications

Parameter Details

Resolution 200 pulses per revolution (PPR)

Output Type Line Driver (differential voltage output, "HC" variant)

Supply Voltage 5-24V DC

Maximum Response Frequency 150kHz

Maximum Speed 6,000 RPM

Shaft Type 6mm diameter with D-cut (keyway)

Protection Class IP50 (dust protection)

Operating Temperature -10°C to +70°C

Dimensions 30mm x 30mm x 30mm (compact design)

Key Features

High Precision:

200 PPR resolution provides accurate position feedback for servo motors and motion control systems.

Voltage Output (HC):

The "HC" suffix denotes a voltage output (differential line driver), which offers better noise resistance than open-collector outputs, ideal for long cable runs or noisy environments.

Compact Design:

Small form factor allows integration into space-constrained machinery (e.g., robotics, automated assembly lines).

Wide Voltage Compatibility:

Works with both 5V and 24V systems, simplifying integration into existing equipment.

Reliability:

IP50 rating protects against dust ingress, and a robust design ensures durability in industrial settings.

Typical Applications

Industrial Automation: Conveyor belt speed control, robotic arm positioning.

CNC Machinery: Milling machines, lathes, and routers.

Textile Equipment: Loom control, yarn winding.

Printing Presses: Precision paper feeding and alignment.

Installation & Wiring

Mounting: Bolt-on installation with 4 mounting holes (M3 screws).

Output Signals:

Phase A/B: Quadrature signals for direction detection.

Z Phase: Index pulse for reference position.

Cabling: Use shielded twisted-pair cables to minimize interference.

Compatibility

Compatible with most servo drives, PLCs, and motion controllers that accept differential line driver inputs.

Pair with a signal conditioner for applications requiring higher noise immunity.
