Rugged encoder line adds another for wind turbines

By Paul Dvorak | August 31, 2011

The HD35R is built to order and available for the general market starting September 1st, 2011. It will be marketed under the NorthStar brand name.

A line of rugged encoders has added a heavy duty, incremental, shafted version to deliver superior reliability in tough wind generator, steel, and paper applications. The HD35R, made by Dynapar in the U.S., will feature a 10-day lead time, and will be an excellent alternative to the Hubner POG90, according to the company.

A few features include a:

• 100-mm IEC flange with an 11-mm shaft containing a 4-mm key for European standard motor mounting.

• Dynapar’s phased array, wide-gap encoder engine, combined with a plastic code disk, to deliver superior shock and vibration resistance.

• Two, large-gauge, over-sized bearings to handle excessive shaft loading, up to 100-lb axial and 50-lbs radial.

• IP67 rated for work in harsh duty environments

• Sealed junction box for field wiring and protection against moisture.

• Wide temperature spec of -40 to 100°C for higher temperature applications.
