Small Series of Incremental Rotary Encoders



Nemicon offers its 7S series incremental rotary encoder. Measuring 7.2 mm (0.28346") in diameter (body height is 10.5 mm / 0.41338"), the 7S series shaft type encoder is designed to provide enhanced resolution, noise immunity and reliability.

The 7S offers three signals, A, B and Z (index signal), and three options for resolution, from 100 to 400 pulses per rotation. Output type is open collector with a maximum current consumption of 30 mA. Maximum operating frequency is 100 kHz, starting torque is 3 gf•cm or less. The 7S comes equipped with a 50 cm cable. The operating temperature range is -10°C ~ +80°C, and the 7S series is rated at IP50 environmental resistance, suitable for industrial machinery applications. The 7S series is compatible with all standard interfaces and is CE certified.

"Space-saving and designed to aid in the miniaturization of equipment, the 7S series is ideal for use in a wide variety of applications where space is limited," said a company spokesperson. "Applications include robots (especially sensing robot arm parts), small motors, electric actuators, measuring instruments, inspection equipment, assembly machines, mounting equipment, semiconductor and LCD manufacturing equipment, medical equipment, surveillance cameras and other industrial machines."
