More information
Description
The ENC-6 from the imc ARGUSfit series is a 6-channel measurement amplifier that can be used in conjunction with an imc ARGUS system (or base unit) to which it is directly docked with its housing.
The module is used as a pulse counter for measuring speed signals supplied by incremental encoders and other sensors with pulse signals. These signals can be used to record the following variables:
- Angle and displacement
- Rotational speed (RPM) and speed
- Frequency
- Time and phase shift
- PWM (duty cycle)
- Event counting
- Digital input status
Highlights:
- High sampling rate or data output rate up to 100 kHz
- Measured values based on high-resolution time evaluation with 100 MHz counter clock
- Comprehensive analog signal conditioning: differential input amplifiers, configurable analog filter, adjustable threshold and hysteresis, digital glitch filter, galvanic isolation for ground loop suppression
- 2 galvanically isolated groups, each with 3 channels and an additional index track
- Dual-track evaluation (4 edges) of quadrature encoders with and without missing teeth index function
- Methods for zero position detection: Index signal and missing teeth
- Dual functionality: Digital Input recording function for all available 10 signal tracks, Port or Bit-wise, (with full signal conditioning and configurable level thresholds)
- Multiple trigger options based on all input and output variables
- Extrapolation function for accumulated variables and events
- Isolated sensor supply 5 V / 12 V, for powering transducers
- Robust, small, and compact: clickable into imc ARGUSfit systems
Typical applications
Robust measurement technology for mobile or stationary use and for test benches.
- Not only for well-defined TTL signals, but also for reliable use of transducers and sensors with unclean and noisy signals, thanks to sophisticated analog conditioning.
- Incremental encoder sensor (single or dual track, quadrature and/or direction of rotation, w/wo index)
- Sensors with complementary digital output signals (e.g. RS485)
- Passive inductive transducers and sensors with analog output signal
- Speed detection by magnetic pickups and gear wheels with "missing teeth"
- Light barriers
- Torque transducer systems with frequency output signal
imc ARGUSfit: Flexible modular platform for fast measurement systems
Based on an imc ARGUSfit base unit, imc ARGUSfit measurement amplifier and interface modules can be combined to form complete systems by means of a robust click mechanism, which can even integrate
imc CANSASfit modules. The click connectors provide the electrical connection to the power supply and system bus.
For expansion to decentralized distributed topologies, the fast internal ARGFT system bus can be converted to fiber optic cables by means of a clickable fiber converter module.
The entire system can be controlled via a common Ethernet connection (LAN/WLAN) with a PC (imc STUDIO software) and can be networked and operated synchronously and uniformly with all other imc data acquisition instrument series. Furthermore, it can also be operated autonomously and stand-alone without PC with data storage on microSD.
