Siko Draw-Wire Encoder SG5
Siko Draw-Wire Encoder SG5
Sku: SIK-SG5
Miniature wire-actuated encoder with 600 mm measurement length
Product Information
Miniature wire-actuated encoder designed to capture linear measurement distances. Its measuring length of 600 mm is very long considering its small size. SG5 is universally usable thanks to its standardized interfaces.
- Very small design
- Universally applicable thanks to standardized interfaces
- Easy mounting
- Measurement lengths up to max. 600 mm
- Potentiometer, voltage or power output
- Housing made of reinforced plastic
