FAULHABER AES-4096 L magnetic single-turn absolute encoder

Click2Contact

The AES-4096 L magnetic single-turn absolute encoder supplies a unique angular value within a motor revolution for each shaft position, with a resolution of 4096 steps. The position is available immediately after power on. It is equipped with a line driver to eliminate interference during signal transmission. This permits the motor/encoder unit to be positioned up to 5 m away from the controller.

The encoder can be combined with brushless DC-motors of the B, BX4, BP4 and BXT series. It transfers the signals using the BiSS-C protocol via an SSI interface. The BiSS protocol is designed for industrial applications in which high transmission speed, flexibility and minimum implementation effort are required.

The AES-4096 L encoder can be used for both speed and motion control. In addition, sine commutation of the motor is possible, providing efficient operation with minimal torque ripple. Digital Hall sensors for commutation of the motors are generally no longer needed.

The encoder is connected with a flat ribbon cable; suitable connectors are optionally available.
