Overview
The Allen-Bradley 845H-SJHZ24-CNY1-C is an optical incremental encoder designed to provide accurate feedback for motion control and positioning applications. This Size 25 encoder features a 3/8-inch shaft with a servo flange configuration, making it compatible with a range of industrial servo motors and actuators. The incremental output delivers high-resolution position data essential for closed-loop control in manufacturing, material handling, and assembly operations.
Key Features
- 500 PPR Resolution: Delivers 500 pulses per revolution for accurate speed and position measurement across the shaft rotation.
- 8–24 V DC Power Supply: Wide input voltage range simplifies integration with multiple control voltage standards.
- RS-422 Output: Digital output protocol ensures noise-immune signal transmission over longer cable runs in industrial environments.
- Axial Connector Termination: Industry-standard connector interface for quick connect/disconnect without soldering.
- Servo Flange Mount: Rigid, direct-drive flange coupling with 3/8-inch shaft provides solid mechanical integration and minimal runout.
