MHAD – Absolute encoder without
bearings with additional incremental signals.
The
HDmag
series by Baumer, a product platform of high-resolution absolute and incremental encoders with magnetic sensing, offers a wide product selection for direct installation at large shafts.
Our customers in mechanical engineering and industry automation
rely on the robust technique.
New
HDmag
MHAD builds further on our successful technology
concept. With a pole wheel diameter of 50 mm the encoder is all
but perfect for shafts up to 42 mm. Forgoing any additional fi ttings
or shaft couplings, it provides most convenient and quick installation capabilities.
Lots of product benefi ts
where space is a constraint.
Minimum space requirements
With its narrow dimensions of only 20 mm in width the compact housing fi ts into any tight spot. The pole wheel allows
fl exible attachment to the shaft, the end remains available for
any other purpose.
Quick and easy installation
The integrated LED indicator acts also as an installation aid and
will ensure observing the tolerances during attachment. This
way, pole wheel and sensor are quickly and accurately installed
without effort.
Capable of large shaft tolerances
Allowing for a wide air gap up to 1 mm between rotor and
sensing head, the sensor provides dependable operation even
with axial shaft displacements of ±1 mm.
Ultimate level of operational safety
The magnetic sensing technique withstands dust, dirt and
humidity. With an extended operating temperature range
between -40 and +85 °C and insensitive to condensing the
encoders master also outdoor applications.
Two interfaces in one device
Besides the absolute value, the singleturn encoder provides
additional incremental signals via SSI or CANopen interface
which can be used for speed control or further processing in
a second loop.

Maximum availability thanks to monitoring
functionalities and redundant sensing.
Absolutely precise and reliable position values at all times: You can
be sure by virtue of the integrated sine/cosine signal monitoring
functionality. The integrated LED will always provide you with the
current encoder activity state. Any errors, alarms or warnings are
immediately transmitted via interface to the master control.
The special housing design opens up new possibilities for reliable
and cost-saving deployment in applications with up to four
sensors. Flexible redundant systems with maximum availability
and minimum space requirements – the perfect fi tting solution
for your application.
Ultimate reliability and
nearly unlimited
longevity.
Bearingless encoders with non-contacting technique forgo any
mechanical wearing parts. Your product benefi t: A nearly unlimited
service life which is further backed by the tight sensor housing
enclosure compliant to IP 67.
Baumer encoders operate on the magnetic sensing technique.
It allows for large mechanical tolerances of 1 mm on the air gap
between sensor and pole wheel, thus eliminating any direct sensor
impact by shaft displacements. Shocks and vibrations are compensated to ensure absolutely dependable measured values even
under extreme conditions and in demanding applications.
