Shaft Encoder RL Series - Optick Shaft Encoder
RL General Purpose and Heavy Duty
The model RL rotary shaft encoder comes with a 3/8", 1/2", 5/8", 8mm, 10mm, or 3/8-16 or 1/4-20 threaded shaft for heavy duty applications where a face mounted encoder is required. The rugged 3" diameter by 2-3/8" deep enclosure is constructed of 1/4" thick aluminum with a 5, 6, or 10 pin connector on the side.
Metric bolt holes are available - see M96 and M105 modifications below.
***Optional modification number (see modified versions table below)
***For other accessory options, see the accessories table below
Notes: * 120AC supply voltage and Triac output require the 3/8" single or double ended shaft.
Note: Not all features are listed. Some combinations are mutually exclusive.
Standard Features and Options:
• Shaft: 3/8" x 1.25" length, single or double ended. 1/2" x 1.25" length. 5/8" x 1.25" length. 8mm x 32mm. 10mm x 32mm.
• Short-Circuit, ESD, and Surge protection are available
• CE Marked (specific models only)

- AC Voltage: 120vac (see 120ACT datasheet)
- Current:
- 50 ma max (no load)
- 100 ma max (line driver)
- Pulse Rate: 0-30 kHz
- Pulses per Revolution: 1 to 1200 (specify when ordering)
- Operating Temperature: 0° to 70° C
- Output Circiut: (specify when ordering)
- Current sinking NPN transistor with pull-up resistor* (50 ma max)
- Current sinking NPN open collector (50 max, 30 vdc max)
- Current sourcing PNP with pull-down resistor* (50 ma max)
- RS422 differential line driver (requires 5, 5R, or 8-30 supply)
- Triac (see 120ACT datasheet)
*see Load Resistor value in DC supply voltage table
- Output Waveshape: Square wave; outputs A and B are 50/50 duty cycle nominal; output Z (index output) is approximately the width of one cycle on outputs A or B.
- Pulse symmetry: 180° +/- 30%
- Pulse intervale jitter: 30% max
- Quadrature: 90° +/- 30% max
- Phase jitter: 30% max
- Anit-Jitter: Increases the pulse hysteresis to 1/2 of a pulse width, eliminating the effects of mechanical vibration and the possible dither than results in false output pulses. For example a 10 pulse per revolution output would have 18 hysteresis (i.e. 360° ÷ 10 x 1/2).
