Dynapar™ brand
APPLICATION/INDUSTRY
The Dynapar brand M21 modular encoder
M
provides high-performance, cost effective
O
feedback for stepper and servo motor controls.
T
O
DESCRIPTION
R
Using industry standard package
dimensions, the M21 is easily installed
M
onto the motor without time-consuming
O
adjustments or special tools. Its unique
U
mechanical design automatically centers
N
and gaps the disc during installation.
T
For Brushless DC (BLDC) servo control,
optional 3 phase commutation tracks
replace the traditional Hall Effect sensors.
These optically-generated signals provide
higher accuracy and reliability, improving
the performance and reliability of the
servo system.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
• The M21 design operates up to 120°C.
The high temperature plastics, phased
array sensor, and low current requirements stabilize the output signals over a
wide range of input voltage, ambient
temperature, or output frequencies.
• The M21 provides 30 degrees of
adjustment to align the signal outputs to
the shaft position. Using an industry
standard Size 21 modular mounting
pattern, the index mark on the disc hub
can be coarse aligned to the index
sensor position on the housing. The
housing rotates to allow further
adjustment of the index or fine alignment
of the commutation channels to the
BLDC motor windings.
• The M21 enclosure is dirt-tight, rated
NEMA 1 / IP50. The cover is gasketed to
seal the disc and optics from contamination. Additionally, the base can be
sealed to the motor for further
environmental protection.
• The M21 outputs are protected from
short circuits, and operate on 5 or 12
VDC power.
