Draw-Wire Encoder SG61

robust design with 6000 mm measurement length

open expert video
Universally usable wire-actuated encoder with measuring lengths of max. 6000 mm, robust design as well as precise and safe wire guidance; prepared for the attachment of various types of rotary encoders with 58 mm standard flange. In combination with a safety encoder from the PURE.MOBILE sensor platform, the wire-actuated encoder can also be used in safety-critical applications up to Performance Level PLd. Furthermore, the wire-actuated encoder can also be used in safety-critical applications up to Performance Level Pld for easy parameterization.

Profile SG61:

  • Robust design
  • Easy mounting
  • Measurement lengths up to max. 6000 mm
  • Flexible wire outlet thanks to Wire-Flex technology
  • Incremental or absolute encoder
  • Also available as a safety version in combination with WV58MR rotary encoder
  • High flexibility thanks to free choice of rotary encoders with 58 mm standard flange
  • Various wire types

Additional information

Hint for mounting

When securing the wire it must be ensured that the wire is straight and vertical in relation to the wire outlet.  Recommendation: Only select the starting position after an unwound length of approx. 5 mm. This prevents the wire hitting the end stop when it is rewound.
