XR56A
Reliable Performance in Hazardous Environments
The XR56 SMARTSafe™ 4.5″ Magnetic Encoder delivers exceptional reliability in hazardous environments with its modular, no-bearing design. Certified for ATEX and UL applications, it withstands gas and dust exposure while eliminating the need for barriers, isolators, or explosion-proof glands in Level 2 installations.
Whether in paint booths, draw works, or coil tubing rigs, the XR56 ensures continuous operation in the harshest industrial settings. Built to endure vibration, shock, liquids, and contaminants, it outperforms traditional encoders that rely on fragile bearings.
For Level 1 applications, the XR56 integrates with XRB1 or XRB2 isolators, allowing intrinsically safe wiring instead of costly explosion-proof conduit.
Unlike conventional optical encoders, the XR56 mounts directly on your application shaft, providing unmatched durability and fault protection against short circuits and wiring issues. By eliminating bearings—the most common point of failure—the XR56 keeps your critical systems running 24/7 with minimal maintenance.
