Rotary angle measurement.

Variohm EuroSensor are supplying Contelec's Vert-X 79 magnetic rotary encoder designed for high accuracy angular measurement on construction machines and heavy-duty mobile vehicle applications where extreme conditions call for the highest levels of durability.

With the convenience of straightforward application adaptation through its MH-C and MH-C2 technology, output interfaces include 0.1 to 10 V, 4 - 20 mA and CANopen with optional half and fully redundant versions available. The Vert-X 79 series has a 0 … 360 degree continuous range with a choice of 12- to 16-bit resolution depending on the output type with independent linearity down to 0.1% of the measuring range. Contelec’s contactless magnetic measuring principle ensures long life whilst the robust aluminium housing with IP68 / IP69K protection ensures maximum durability for extremes of humidity, dampness, dust, and vibration.

The compact sensor has an outer diameter of 79 mm with overall height of just 50mm and electrical interfacing is via an M12-m connector. Series options include special characteristic curves, factory programmed electrical angle within a range of 30° to 360° as well as support for field-programmable direction, range and index points. The CANopen version also offers custom bit-rate to 1000 Kbits/sec. Other customisation options include shaft and housing modifications, and alternative electrical connection.

The Vert-X 79 can be supplied with a driving disc that can be used as a coupling element for the rotating drive mechanism. This connection method allows precise measurements even under radial impact and can tolerate a high level of axial misalignment.
