Frequently asked questions
Answers to the most common questions about our products and services
No. The analog table lists 1500 mm versions with P for potentiometer, U for voltage and I for current. The listed digital version has a 2400 mm range and a TTL output.
They are different encoder signal configurations. TTL01 provides A, B and a reference signal; TTL02 also includes complementary A and B signals. Match the input configuration to the model suffix.
Both analog and digital tables specify IP65. It uses a reinforced plastic housing and specifies −20 to +80°C operation.
No. The 1500 mm analog version specifies ±0.15% FSO, or ±2.25 mm. The 2400 mm digital version specifies ±0.05% FSO, or ±1.2 mm.
Maximum wire acceleration is approximately 5g, maximum extension force 8 N and minimum retraction force 1 N. A wire clip connects it to the moving part.
