Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the difference between absolute and incremental encoders?
Absolute encoders provide a unique position value for each shaft position and retain this information even after power loss. Incremental encoders provide relative position information and require a reference point (homing) after power is restored. The Heidenhain EQN1325.001-2048 is an absolute encoder, making it ideal for applications where position retention is critical.
What does "8192 position values per revolution" mean?
This means the encoder can distinguish 8192 different positions within one complete revolution (360 degrees). This provides an angular resolution of approximately 0.044 degrees per position, enabling extremely precise position measurement.
Can this encoder be used in harsh industrial environments?
Yes, the Heidenhain EQN1325.001-2048 is designed for industrial applications and can withstand typical industrial conditions including vibration, temperature variations, and electrical noise. However, specific environmental ratings should be verified for extreme conditions.
What type of output signals does this encoder provide?
The encoder provides absolute position data through its 12-pin electrical connection. The specific output format (parallel, serial, or fieldbus) depends on the interface electronics used with the encoder.
How do I interface this encoder with my PLC or control system?
The encoder requires compatible interface electronics that can interpret the absolute position data. Heidenhain provides various interface modules that convert the encoder signals to standard industrial protocols such as PROFIBUS, PROFINET, EtherCAT, or simple parallel interfaces.
What is the expected lifespan of this encoder?
Heidenhain encoders are known for their reliability and long service life. Under normal operating conditions, these encoders can typically operate for millions of revolutions. Actual lifespan depends on operating conditions, maintenance, and environmental factors.
