 … and many more applications, where linear position detection is necessary

• Easy to integrate as it is the smallest absolute linear encoder with fieldbus interfaces
• The fieldbus interface can be changed without having to exchange the encoder
• It offers high-level process dynamics due to its small size, low weight and high permitted traverse speed
• 100% availability as it is wear and maintenance-free
• It is resistant to contamination and condensation
• The SSI version is real-time capable thanks to its SinCos output
