Siko SG32 Draw-Wire Encoder – Redundant 3000mm Sensor

Siko SG32 Draw-Wire Encoder is a very robust wire-actuated sensor engineered with a compact design to fit numerous areas of application. Capable of measuring lengths up to 3000 mm, this device features a signal output in a redundant design, making it an ideal choice for safety-critical operations. Its universally changeable installation ensures easy integration into existing industrial setups.

Description

Siko SG32 Draw-Wire Encoder addresses the need for high-reliability measurement in space-constrained environments. A defining characteristic of the SG32 is its analogue signal output in a redundant design, offering options such as 2x 4…20 mA or potentiometer outputs. This redundancy ensures that the system maintains operational integrity even if one signal path encounters an issue, which is vital for functional safety applications.

Built for Harsh Industrial Environments

Durability is at the core of the SG32’s construction. It is equipped with a very robust measuring rope made of stainless steel to withstand mechanical stress. To protect against environmental factors, the housing features lockable vent and water drain holes, preventing moisture buildup. With an IP65 protection class, the encoder is dust-tight and protected against water jets, ensuring consistent performance in demanding conditions.
