Solid Shaft, 50 mm Body — Optical or Magnetic
The ARX S 50 is a solid-shaft incremental encoder in a 50 mm body, available with optical or magnetic measurement. The solid shaft design with flange coupling suits applications where direct hollow-shaft mounting is not possible. The optical variant offers up to 20,000 PPR for precision speed and position control; the magnetic variant offers robust performance in contaminated environments.
Ordering note: ARX models combine two measurement families — specify optical (ARC) for maximum resolution and precision, or magnetic (ARS) for immunity to dust, oil, and condensation in harsh environments.
Solid shaft (6 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm) - flexible coupling or flange mount
Optical or magnetic measurement - choose to suit your environment
Optical up to 20,000 PPR - high resolution for precision applications
IP54 rated - protected against dust ingress and water splash
50 mm aluminium body, ~180 g - mid-range form factor
Flange coupling mount - for applications without accessible hollow shafts
