The encoder housing is made of aluminum, has a high IP protection (IP65) and a double ball bearing stainless steel shaft for high actuation speeds. The signal processing of the encoders is digital and based on Hall sensor technology. The gradient-based evaluation also makes the encoders insensitive to temperature fluctuations and EMC influences.

As analog variants, the encoders are available with voltage/current output or PWM, as digital variants with SSI, SER and SPI. Redundant variants are also selectable with analog voltage output or SPI. The incremental encoder version is available with TTL, push pull or open collector output electronics.

The HTx25 encoders are electrically connected via M8 connectors with axial or radial cable outlet or via a shielded signal cable (1 m, metal cable glands) permanently connected to the encoder.

Depending on the variant, the encoders are used in plants, laboratories and medical equipment.
