The Nemicon 18SA Series is a compact magnetic rotary encoder that delivers reliable motion feedback for industrial and automation applications. Using magnetic sensing technology, the encoder maintains stable signal output even in environments where dust, vibration, or temperature changes might affect optical encoders. With its small 18 mm diameter and shaft type construction, the 18SA is well suited for installation in compact motors, robotics, and control systems where space is limited.
The 18SA encoder offers both incremental and absolute output options, providing flexibility for different control requirements. The incremental version supplies standard A, B, and Z phase signals plus UVW commutation signals for motor control, while the absolute version delivers high resolution position data via digital interfaces such as SSI or SPI. This versatility makes the 18SA ideal for precise rotational position detection, speed monitoring, and advanced motion control in a range of industrial equipment.
