HEATING

For outside operation a heating protects against condensed-water production.
The heating foil, nom. 12 V / 18 W (1,5 A), is fixed onto the cover of the built-in encoder. The temperature switch is mounted interior at the housing cover; it closes at +5°C and lower and opens again at +15°C and higher. This will safe the optimal function of the encoder even at environmental temperatures down to -40°C and avoid condensed-water production.

FORCED-AIR COOLING

The air cooling renders the operation at environmental temperatures up to +125°C, at high humidity or in aggressive atmosphere. For compressed-air supply reducing valves are mounted in the cover of the AWG-housing.

WATER COOLING

Operation at environmental temperatures up to +200°C will be rendered by a water cooling. Therefore a copper-helix is build in between encoder and AWG housing. Chromed 5/8" hose couplings are available for water supply.

SERVO MOUNTING RING

In order to mount the AWG flange at the servo flute 2 half-shells or 3 segments, made of high-quality stainless steel, can be delivered. Fixing the encoder this way, there is no need to touch the shaft-side of the encoder.

FLANGE ADAPTORS

Adapter flanges render the simple extension at already existing mounting options. Extensive mechanical modifications at existing equipment by retooling are not neccessary.

An adaption of the AWG-flange according to all customer specified requirements is possible. The centring, shaft-diameter and shaft length, number and arrangement of thread holes can be, according to customer's demands, modified without any problems.
