Economical Encoder

Dynapar announces the introduction of the HC20, a commutation encoder priced over forty percent lower than previous models, designed for use in brushless servo and step motor applications. Unlike some other encoders in this price range, the HC20 features direct-read non-interpolated technology that stems from a custom phased array ASIC, and is available with a wide 5-26VDC operating range. In addition, the high 120oC temperature rating won't limit motor performance, allowing manufacturers to keep from de-rating torque specs. The encoder is capable of up to 2500PPR (pulses per revolution) and is available with commutation tracks for 4, 6, or 8 pole variants of brushless motors.

Compact Design:
The space-saving design of the phased array ASIC allows for compact dimensions on the HC20. With an industry-standard 50mm diameter and short 36mm mounting depth, the encoder is perfectly suited for use on NEMA 23 and 34 size brushless servo and stepper motors. The compact dimensions al
