SICK AFS60 Inox, AFM60 Inox and DFS60 Inox high-resolution encoders

Click2Contact

The AFS60 Inox, AFM60 Inox and DFS60 Inox are high-resolution encoders from SICK, suitable for a range of applications.

The AFS60 absolute singleturn encoder and the AFM60 absolute multiturn encoder offer a high resolution of 18 bits (AFS60 Inox) or 30 bits (AFM60 Inox) and a large selection of programmable parameters. Due to their high resolution, high IP enclosure rating and stainless steel housing they can be used in applications with harsh ambient conditions and strict requirements regarding resistance to aggressive media such as cleaning agents or salt.

The encoders are equipped with the SSI interface; the AFM60 Inox is also available with combined SSI plus incremental and SSI plus sin/cos interfaces. Both encoders can be programmed via the PGT-08-S PC-based programming device or the PGT-10-Pro handheld programming device.

The DFS60 Inox is a high-resolution incremental encoder with a diameter of 60 mm in stainless steel design. It offers a large range of mechanical and electrical interfaces and can also be programmed by the user. The rugged mechanical design, the wide temperature range as well as the IP67 enclosure rating make the DFS60 Inox suitable for applications in harsh ambient conditions. The range of options for programming the electrical parameters includes the output signal level, the number of pulses per revolution or the zero pulse width.

These encoders are suitable for use in the food and beverage industry, packaging machines, medical technology and outdoor applications in port and offshore plants.
