Non-contact rotary encoder captures motion in harsh environments

The PE18 ProxEncoder from Joral LLC is a non-contact rotary encoder product line. Modeled in a threaded proximity switch housing, the 18mm true non-contact encoder is designed to capture rotary motion where conventional sensors fail.Two USPTO patents enable thePE18 ProxEncoderto detect on-axis rotation with up to 0.5” (12mm) air gap between the application and sensor.
