Description

Construction and design

The resilient encoder housing has a flange dimension of 58 mm and comprises anodised aluminium. The absolute rotary encoders in the series GEL 2035 are available with a clamping flange, heavy-duty clamping flange or clamping flange with tooth wheel adapter. A very compact redundant system is realised by combination with a resolver. The complete electrical isolation of the resolver from the magnetic absolute rotary encoder ensures true redundancy of the absolute position values. For integration into a CANopen network, the absolute rotary encoder GEL 2035 is available with a CANopen interface. This version is available in stainless steel as standard and is equipped with a semi hollow shaft. For use in extremely dusty, dirty or aggressive environments, the absolute rotary encoder GEL 2035 is available in an IP 69K variant. Compliance with protection class IP 69K is ensured by the robust stainless steel housing with radial cable gland and the two-chamber system.

Battery saving mode

In order to preserve the battery power, the encoder is delivered in battery saving mode. In this mode, the encoder is not active. Applying the power supply, activates the encoder which provides postion values. To extend battery life, this mode can be re-activated. In the following cases, activation of the saving mode is useful to save battery power:

  • Long-term shutdown of the plant without voltage supply.
  • Storage as spare part.
  • IDisassembly of the encoder, followed by long-term stor-
    age.
  • In case of a faulty encoder, before returning it to the fac-
    tory.
  • Protection class up to IP 69K

You have two alternatives to activate the battery saving
mode:
1. Using the PRESET push-button
     In de-energized state, push the PRESET push-button
     for at least 0.1 s.
2. Using the PRESET input
     In de-energized state, apply between PRESET input
     and GND a voltage of 3 V to 30 V for at least 0.1 s.
In battery saving mode the encoder is disabled. After
switching on the power supply, the encoder provides the
adjusted PRESET value independent of the position of the
encoder shaft (→page 6). Electronic adjustment of the
encoder is required. For this reason, battery saving mode
is recommended only in the cases mentioned above.


Sensing principle

The multiturn absolute rotary encoders in the series GEL 2035 provide an unambiguous position value for each angular position with a resolution of up to 24 bits. The single turn and multiturn stage each operate with a resolution of 12 bit. The multiturn stage is based on an electronic gear. A buffer battery ensures the function of the absolute rotary encoder also in case of power failure. Even if the rotary encoder moves in de-energised state, the current position value is accurately output immediately after power is switched on.

Interfaces

The absolute rotary encoder supplies the position values either in binary or gray code via a fast synchronous serial interface (SSI) or as per encoder profile DS406 via a CANopen interface.

Temperature ranges

High precision SMD components are used in the absolute rotary encoder. Despite careful selection, thermal ageing of these components cannot be excluded. For this reason the encoder should be stored at a temperature from -40°C to +85°C. Operating temperatures of -40°C to +85°C are allowed, an installed absolute rotary encoder is not allowed to exceed this temperature range. The function of the absolute rotary encoder is ensured within the operating temperature range allowed, (DIN 32878); here it is the temperature at the encoder housing that applies. The temperature of the absolute rotary encoder is affected by the installation situation (thermal conductance, thermal radiation), the heating caused by the absolute rotary encoder (bearing friction, electrical power loss) and the ambient temperature. The operating temperature may be higher than the ambient temperature depending on the operation of the absolute rotary encoder. Depending on the supply voltage the heating caused by the encoder can be up to 10°C. At high operating speeds >5,000min-1 the heating caused by the encoder can be up to 20°C due to the bearing friction. If the absolute rotary encoder is operated close to the limits of the specifications allowed, the ambient temperature must be reduced by suitable means (cooling) such that the operating temperature range allowed is not exceeded.

Synchronous serial interface

The synchronous serial interface transfers the position data at a clock frequency of up to 2 MHz. Prior to further position sampling, a minimum clock pulse space of 25 μs must be met.


Principle of the serial data transmission [gray code (25 bits), RS 422 / RS 485 standard]

   f       >40kHz
   T       Length of the clock signal period (= 1/clock frequency)
   Tp     Clock pulse space,
            between the clock sequences TP At least 25 μs

Direction of rotation

The encoder can output increasing position values on the clockwise or counter clockwise rotation of the shaft. The direction of rotation can be selected by using the CW/CCW input (counting direction).

Cable length

With the synchronous serial interface protocol the transmission rate allowed drops with increasing cable length. A screened, twisted pair cable is recommended for the signal cables (± CLOCK and ± DATA).

Cable length [m] < 50 < 100 < 200 < 400
Clock frequency [kHz] < 400 < 300 < 200 < 100

PRESET function

The output signals can be set to a PRESET value from any position value. As supplied the encoder is set to half the maximum resolution. The PRESET is set electronically if the supply voltage UB is briefly t > 100 ms applied to the PRESET input (do NOT apply continuously). Other PRESET values are available upon request. As an alternative there is a PRESET push-button recessed into the base of the housing (IP 67). The PRESET pushbutton can be operated using a pin ( t > 100 ms).
