| New 2nd Generation Fiber Optic Incremental Encoders |
Micronor's new MR320 series Fiber Optic Incremental Rotary Encoders represent the 2nd Generation of the MR310 series originally introduced in 2004. With 8 years of customer usage, these fiber optic sensors have demonstrated their intrinsic immunity to EMI and inherent safety in all manner of challenging environments. Design and performance improvements include: Duplex fiber design increases optical loss budget by 6dB Maximum distance extended to 2500 meters Duplex LC interface is user friendly and better performing Same package and extended temperature options as original MR310 series ATEX classified Simple Apparatus for safe use in mines & haz locations |
