High-end Magnetic Rotary Encoders with Solid or Hollow Shaft Family HTx36E
The rotary encoders of the HTx36E family stand for what is technically feasible today in the eld of contactless
angle sensors with gradient-based magnetic data acquisition. They oer maximum resolution and accuracy when
measuring the largest possible angles.
Absolute encoders HTB36E/HTS36E:
Battery- and gearless Energy-Harvesting / True-Power-On multiturn measurement acquisition method
High single- and multiturn resolution
High system accuracy for the most precise measurement results possible
Outputs CANopen, CAN SAE J1939 or SSI
The digital communication interfaces CANopen, SAE J1939 and SSI ensure reliable digital transmission of
the measured values. In addition, they guarantee a smooth integration and monitoring of the encoder in the
application. Furthermore, each encoder is automatically calibrated to a standard before it leaves the factory. In
the version with battery- and gearless energy harvesting technology, the encoders also record the number of
revolutions made in the de-energised state.
Incremental encoders HTI36E:
Resolution from 1 to 16,384 ppr
ppr. value can be selected in steps of 1 increment
The option to set the index pulse to any position
HTx36E rotary encoders are the high-end encoders with magnetic sensor technology in the MEGATRON product
range. This is due to the cutting-edge electronics, metal housing, the high IP protection class and a double
ball-bearing stainless steel shaft that withstands high axle loads and allows high actuation speeds. The signal
processing is digital and based on magnetic recording of measured values and uses the patented Energy-
Harvesting technology needed for battery-less multi turn encoders even of power is turned o while turning. The
gradient-based evaluation ensures high interference immunity, e.g. B. against temperature uctuations and EMC
inuences achieved. This technology leaves the disadvantages of conventional Hall sensors far behind. HTx36E
rotary encoders are designed for maximum service life and even outperform the robust optical data acquisition.
