Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between single-turn and multi-turn encoders?
Single-turn encoders measure position within one revolution (0-360°), while multi-turn encoders like the HES-10-2MHC can track absolute position across multiple revolutions, providing position data even after power loss or system restart.
What are the advantages of hollow shaft design?
Hollow shaft encoders mount directly onto motor shafts without couplings, reducing mechanical complexity, eliminating backlash, and improving system rigidity and accuracy.
What is SSI interface and why is it important?
SSI (Synchronous Serial Interface) is a digital communication protocol that provides reliable, noise-resistant data transmission between encoders and controllers in industrial environments, ensuring accurate position data transfer.
What PLC systems are compatible with the HES-10-2MHC?
The HES-10-2MHC is compatible with most industrial PLCs that support SSI interface, including Siemens, Allen-Bradley, Mitsubishi, Omron, and other major brands with appropriate interface modules.
What is the operating temperature range?
While specific temperature ratings may vary, industrial encoders like the HES-10-2MHC typically operate in the range of -10°C to +70°C, with some models offering extended temperature ranges for harsh environments.
How do I install and align the encoder properly?
Proper installation involves ensuring the hollow shaft fits snugly on the motor shaft, using appropriate mounting hardware, and verifying alignment to prevent eccentricity that could affect measurement accuracy.
