Leine & Linde’s ISA and IHA 600 series of solid shaft and hollow-shaft absolute rotary encoders are optimized for process and machine control in the harsh environments.

Leine & Linde’s ISA and IHA 600 series of solid shaft and hollow-shaft absolute rotary encoders are optimized for process and machine control in harsh environments. In addition to the position value, advanced signal processing inside the encoder can deliver velocity, acceleration, alarms and warnings to the control system, providing multi-variable feedback for sophisticated control algorithms with short cycle times. The encoders' interface supports CANopen over EtherCAT according to CiA 301 and the device profile range CiA 406.
