AV115 THIN-LINE III™ heavy mill duty modular magnetic encoders fit standard 115mm flange motors. Adapters are available to fit European B-flange (85mm/100mm BC) motors. Other THIN-LINE III models, ranging from 4.5" to 8.5", are available to fit other motor sizes as needed. For Euro B-flange, AV45 is also available.

THIN-LINE III encoders feature simple installation, durable construction, and clear diagnostics to eliminate encoder-related downtime:

First, the magnetic sensors are fully potted to withstand dirt and liquids. No glass disks, no optics to clog. There are no moving, wearing parts! The patented Wide-Gap™ Cam Screw Rotors™ put an end to sensor damage, are simpler to install, and stay securely mounted to the shaft. The universal 5-24V design drives longer cables and is protected against wiring errors and surges.

When you power up an AV115, you know you installed it right: the green light tells you the digital self-tuning has set your AV115 optimally. If at any time, the AV115 cannot produce ideal signals, the light changes to red and the remote alarm contact activates. However, the encoder keeps working to give you time to schedule service. Any time there are wiring errors, the LED changes to orange.

With a real-world installation history of over 4,500,000 hour MTBF, AV115 encoders will keep your machine running 24/7/365!
