AC36/0014AR.41SCB by Danaher

The manufacturer Danaher series Dynapar Encoders part_number AC36/0014AR.41SCB encoder delivers high-precision absolute position feedback in a compact, rugged housing designed for demanding industrial environments. This unit offers up to Resolution 17-bit single-turn and Resolution 12-bit multi-turn accuracy, enabling fine angular discrimination for motion control systems. With support for both Interface Options BiSS, SSI binary or Gray code protocols and an integrated Drivers Stroke and data/RS422 differential output, it ensures robust communication under high-noise conditions. The aluminum structure and solid design prioritize longevity, while the 37.5 mm diameter makes it suitable for space-constrained installations. Engineers will appreciate its compatibility with standard 6 mm shafts and 5 V DC power systems for seamless integration.

The AC36/0014AR.41SCB encoder incorporates a suite of critical specifications that define its performance envelope. Its Diameter 37.5mm aluminum body and Housing Material aluminum deliver both strength and lightweight construction. The Shaft Size 6mm solid shaft and Shaft Type solid shaft design improve torque transmission and coupling stability. It supports a Mounting Configuration round flange for straightforward mechanical attachment and offers selectable Cable Exits axial or radial options to accommodate varied cable routing requirements. The device accepts a regulated Input Voltage DC 5 V supply and provides up to Revolution Count 10000 turn counting capability via its multi-turn mechanism. Environmental ratings include Protection Class IP64 sealing against dust ingress and limited water exposure, and an Operating Temperature -40°C to +100°C range to withstand extreme conditions.

In operation, this encoder sustains a Max Operating Speed 10,000 rpm to match high-speed spindle or rotary axis demands, while its RS422 differential output ensures noise-resistant signal transmission across long cable runs. The absolute feedback architecture retains positional data after power interruptions, eliminating the need for rehoming sequences and reducing downtime. Dual protocol support for BiSS and SSI enables compatibility with a wide array of motion controllers and PLCs. Engineers benefit from consistent performance in harsh industrial settings, as the solid aluminum housing resists vibration and mechanical shock.

System integration is simplified by standard electrical characteristics and common interface protocols, allowing direct connection to industrial automation controllers and servo drives. The AC36/0014AR.41SCB encoder excels in applications such as CNC machining centers, robotic manipulators, packaging machinery, and material handling systems where precision and reliability are paramount. Its compact footprint and robust design make it suitable for retrofits or new machine builds. With the combination of high resolution, versatile output options, and rugged construction, this encoder is tailored for advanced motion control solutions in modern manufacturing environments.
