HS6M

HS6M Hollow Shaft Magnetic Absolute Rotary Encoder

The HS6M hollow shaft magnetic absolute rotary encoder offers exceptional performance and durability in a cost-effective package. Utilizing Wiegand wire energy harvesting technology combined with magnetic sensors, this encoder design requires no batteries, long-term capacitors, glass disks, or gears. We also offer solid shaft models (AV6M), severe duty models (AV30, HS40), and optical models (AV6A, HS6A) for ultra-precision applications.

HS6M encoders feature superior shaft seals and bearings that remain sealed to keep contaminants out, even through temperature cycling and liquid sprays. The magnetic sensor can operate effectively through oil, dust, and dirt that would disable ordinary optical absolute encoders. Optional coated circuit boards and GORE-TEX® weep/breather drain configurations are available for the most challenging environments.

The HS6M supports a wide range of industry-standard communication protocols, including analog outputs, CANOpen, J1939, Profinet IO, Profibus, SSI, and EtherCAT, ensuring compatibility with your system requirements.

Combining magnetic sensors with advanced bearing and seal technology, the HS6M delivers top performance in industrial applications. Choose the HS6M encoder for reliable and durable performance in your operations.
