Why Use an EMS22 Magnetic Encoder?

The EMS22 can offer enhanced reliability in harsh

environmental conditions such as mud, dust, grease,

oil, water and dirt, giving this product an edge in

performance over traditional optical and contacting

encoders. Figure 4 illustrates examples of harsh

environments.

In addition, there are no contacting parts between

the magnet and the ASSP to degrade the life

expectancy of this type of encoder. As a result,

the EMS22 can have more than 50 times the life

expectancy of traditional contacting encoders.

The designer and end user can expect cycle

life performance without degradation of signal

accuracy, a clear advantage over encoders that use

optical or contacting technology.
