    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is the difference between the SENC 50 and SENC 150?

    The SENC 50 and SENC 150 linear encoders are very similar. The SENC 150 is available in a wider range of measuring lengths, 75mm-3,075mm vs. 25mm-500mm. The SENC 50 has a slightly more compact body, with a weight of 0.3 kg/meter of measuring length compared to 0.7 kg/meter.


    What applications are the SENC 50 best suited for?

    The SENC 50’s compact design is versatile enough for many different applications. Its dimensions make it ideal for situations when installation space may be limited or restricted.


    Is the SENC 50 able to withstand elements of contamination in harsh environments?

    Yes. When mounted properly, the SENC 50 reaches an IP rating of 53. It comfortably operates between temperatures of 0 to +50°C and humidity levels of 25 to 95% (without condensation forming).
