The Mercury 1500P encoder is a digital output system. Designed for PC board mounting, it is available with linear or rotary scales.
Mercury’s space-saving, integrated configuration gives OEM system designers a breakthrough in performance.
Imagine what you can do with this!
OEMs can now use encoders for closed loop control where
it was previously not possible or cost effective. Engineers can
achieve dramatic improvements in system speed, throughput,
and reliability, while reducing cost, size and weight. The
Mercury 1500P series kit encoders make it all possible. The
digital output sensors mount directly on your printed circuit
board within an EMI shielded module. The low Z height of the
sensor, only 5.6mm, opens up exciting design possibilities.
