General Description:
The RM21 Series is a highly reliable, low cost bearingless (modular) encoder
built using SMT technology.
The 1-2-3 set-up simplifies troublesome features of typical modular encoders.
With a single push on the slide/lock mechanism, the RM21 is aligned, centered
and gapped for maximum performance.
No adjustments are required and no mechanical rubbing exists once installed.
The cover has an integral positive locking mechanism to eliminate mounting
hardware. Sensors are set up differentially under a single LED light source.

GATING OPTIONS:
Specify Gating Option Index Width
_______ _____________ ___________
0 Ungated 360° ± 20%
1 Gated W/A&B 90° ± 45°
Gating option 0 (Ungated) is standard. Ungated index
is random with channels A and B.
Output Configuration:
Minimum transition to transition edge separation
of A and B is 45° over operating temperature and
frequency. Complementary outputs are not shown for
simplicity. CCW viewing PC board surface.
