Incremental Functional Safety Encoder

Rotary Encoders

Rotary encoders, coupled to rotating equipment, provide a digital feedback signal to a controller.

Linear Encoders

Based on an inductive principle, these linear sensors are well sealed and especially rugged.

Hall Effect Sensors

Hall effect sensors measure the position of a rotating magnet to produce an analog position signal.

Potentiometers

Potentiometers use a variation in resistance to measure rotary or linear position.

Inclinometer Tilt Sensors

Tilt sensors indicate an angular position relative to the local gravity vector.

Draw Wire Sensors

Draw Wires have a wire spool attached to a rotary sensor; this converts the wire length into a value on the sensor.

DROs

DROs or Digital Readouts give a visual, numerical indication of position when used with a linear encoder.
