ELAP HLS linear wire encoder for packaging equipment

The ELAP HLS linear wire encoder provides a number of pulses proportional to the linear displacement of the wire. The inside spring controls the return of the wire to the starting position. The transducer consists of a bidirectional incremental rotary encoder operated by means of a wire-reel mechanism; the wire is manufactured of stainless steel covered with nylon.

The encoder is suitable for industrial applications which require high accuracy and measuring lengths. It has a high IP rating against environmental agents and is available with strokes ranging from 1000 to 12,000 mm, resolutions ranging from 0.04 to 1 mm and push-pull or line driver output signal.

The types HLS-S, HLS-M and HLS-L differ for mechanical size and measuring stroke. Typical applications include X-Y tables, oil/air pressure cylinders, packaging equipment, woodworking machines, marble and sheet-working machinery. The device complies with CE standards.
