STRING ENCODER CABLE REEL CONFIGURATIONS

Celesco has introduced PT5600 model String Encoders that consist of industrial rotary encoders mated to Celesco's linear cable reels. String Encoders are commonly employed when the end users need a linear measurement, but require a signal output provided by a high-resolution incremental or absolute encoder. The PT5600 model provides a variety of linear measurement ranges from 10 to 250 in., as well as 4 different measurement cable directions.

The units can use any type of incremental or absolute encoder, including many well known encoder brands, the company says. The PT5600 units support the common 2.0 and 2.5 inch square flange mount encoder mounts, as well as the 60 mm face mount encoders; other sized encoder mountings are also available. The encoders provide common digital outputs such as quadrature, 5 V line driver, universal line driver, SSI and DeviceNet. The PT5600 consists of a cable spool that is coupled to the encoder shaft: the spool translates the linear cable motion into the rotary motion of the encoder. The PT5600 design results in 8 in. of linear measurement per encoder shaft turn.
