8.2 Limitations
Encoders with cable outlet
Due to the cable material (PVC as standard), encoders with
direct cable outlet can only be used up to -30°C [-22°F]. If you
need a wider temperature range, please contact us, see
chapter Contact [} 64].
8.2.1 Definition Temperature Measurement
Under specific conditions, the maximum permissible ambient
temperature must be limited. Therefore one also refers for
encoders to a maximum operating temperature, which is
composed of several components.
An encoder is a mechatronic system that heats up differently
according to the variant. For critical applications close to the
maximum values, we recommend measuring the actual tem-
perature of the encoder in operation.
Measuring point at the flange:
62 - EN
NOTICE
Both the ambient temperature and the mechanical and elec-
trical self-heating are included when measuring the temperat-
ure on the flange.. Therefore, the temperature measured on
the flange gives the operating temperature of the encoder.
Comply with the maximum ambient temperature
When using ATEX encoders, observe the limited ambient
temperature of -20 °C ... +60 °C [-4 °F ... +140 °F].
Temperature range of connectable components
When choosing the accessories, in particular the connectors,
observe the maximum temperature of these components.
