HS6M hollow shaft magnetic absolute rotary encoders offer excellent performance and durability in a cost-effective package.  By utilizing Wiegand wire energy harvesting technology combined with magnetic sensors, Avtron has created an absolute encoder design which requires no batteries, long-term capacitors, glass disks, or gears!   Also available:  solid shaft model (AV6M), severe duty models (AV30, HS40), as well as optical models (AV6A, HS6A) for ultra-precision applications. 

HS6M encoders have superior shaft seals and bearings that stay sealed to keep contaminants out, through temperature cycling and liquid sprays.  Moreover, the magnetic sensor can see through oil, dust and dirt that disable ordinary optical absolute encoders.  Optional coated circuit boards and GORE-TEX® weep/breather drain configurations are available for the roughest locations.

The HS6M features a broad range of industry standard communication protocols:  from analog outputs to CANbus, DeviceNet, J1939, PROFINET IO, andSSI, you will find the communication protocol you need. 

Our HS6M encoders combine magnetic sensors and superior bearing and seal technology to give top performance in industrial applications.  Select HS6M today!
