Originally designed for use in the wind energy sector – the absolute signal measuring the position of the rotor blade and the incremental signal for the motor inverter – the new encoders could be used in any applications where a dual signal output is required, potentially to eliminate the fitting of dual encoders.

The new units can be supplied as mounted stator coupling versions or for shaft connection with up to IP 66 protection.
