Le/12/S Linear Encoder  

Linear Encoder, LE

 

Solartron Metrology linear encoders are highly accurage optical gauges designed for use in applications where consistent sub-micron measurement is required. Accuracy is maintained along the entire measurement range. The Linear Encoders are available with both the iBox for TTL output and Orbit3 Compatibility.

 

  •  A choice of 12mm or 25mm measurement ranges
  •  Spring, free, pneumatic, cable release
  •  Choice of IP65 or IP50 (probe only)
  •  Up to 0.4µm accuracy
  •  Up to 0.00125µm resolution
  •  CE approved
  •  Verification/calibration traceable to NPL (National Physical Laboratory)
 
 

 

 
 

Pretravel Adjustment Key

Pretravel Adjustment Key

For adjusting the pre-/posttravel on analogue spring push gauging transducers. Not for use on digital or pneumatic sensors.
Replacement Gaiters

replacement gaiters

Gaiters can be replaced when damaged. Only pneumatic push probes require gaiter rings.

AXS Special

Analogue Gauging Probe - AX/S Special

 

When space is at a premium the extremely compact dimensions of the AX/S special probes can be exploited whilst retaining standard 8mm diameter fixings. For placing measurement points close to each other the A6G/1/S probe can be used with its smaller 6mm case diameter which still incorporates a ball bearing.
