MODELS ZBG AND ZBH STANDARD DUTY ENCODER (Replaces MODEL RPGB)
MODEL ZHG HEAVY DUTY ENCODER (Replaces MODEL RPGH)
CURRENT SINK OUTPUTS
HIGH PULSE PER REVOLUTION (PPR) RATES
Up to 1200 PPR for fine, high-resolution counting or precision speed
measurement from slow shaft speeds.
QUADRATURE OUTPUT
For position measurement, bi-directional counting and in systems with
backlash counting requirements.
AVAILABLE WITH MS AND M12 CONNECTORS
MODEL ZBG and ZBH - FOR GENERAL
INDUSTRIAL SERVICE (Replaces Model RPGB)
mounted, slotted disc. An internal pulse-shaping amplifier circuit delivers a
rectangular pulse signal from the current sinking output in response to the passing
slots as it rotates. They can be direct-coupled to a machine shaft by means of a
flexible-bellows, spring, or rubber sleeve type coupling that allows for axial and
radial misalignment. They can also be coupled with light instrument timing-belts.
Timing-belt drives also allow convenient gear-up or gear-down speed ratio
changes that can be useful for obtaining non-standard PPR rates.
DIMENSIONS In Inches (mm)
The units contain an L.E.D. light source and a photo sensor that scans a shaft-
MODEL ZHG - HEAVY-DUTY SEALED HOUSING
(Replaces Model RPGH)
These heavy duty units feature a heavy cast aluminum housing with 1/4"
thick aluminum cover plates and 0-ring seals. Heavy duty bearings are doublesealed and allow radial shaft loading of 40 lbs (18 Kg).
A 1/2" (12.7 mm) NPT Conduit entry permits signal wiring to be run via flexconduit to an internal terminal block. Electrical characteristics are identical to
those for the Model ZBG. Terminal board markings correspond to the Pin-Out
identification of the ZBG.

SPECIFICATIONS
ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
1. SUPPLY VOLTAGE:
+4.75 to +28 VDC @ 80 mA max. from 0 °C to 85 °C
+4.75 to +24 VDC @ 80 mA max. from 0 °C to 100 °C
2. OUTPUT: Current Sinking
ZBG and ZHG (Single Channel): 250 mA max.
ZBH (Quadrature): 250 mA max. current per output. Incremental - two
square waves in quadrature with Channel A leading Channel B for clockwise
rotation. (Quad. Phase relationship is 90° ±22.5 electrical degrees)
Note: NPN Transistor outputs have 1.5 K load resistors returned to supply
for internal feed back purposes. This does not interfere with the ability to
use these outputs as conventional “Open-Collector” outputs as long as
the supply voltage for the ZB is supplied by the indicator or control
receiving its output signal. The ZB’s internal load resistor also allows the
output to be used as a current source, however, load current must be
limited to 1 mA max.
3. MAXIMUM FREQUENCY:
Single Channel: 20 KHz
Quadrature: 20 KHz
PPR available up to 1270 for both single channel and quadrature.
