Reflective Linear and Rotary Encoders

Imagine what you can do with this!

OEMs can now use encoders for closed loop control where

it was previously not possible or cost effective. Engineers can

achieve dramatic improvements in system speed, throughput,

and reliability, while reducing cost, size and weight. The

Mercury 1500P series kit encoders make it all possible. The

digital output sensors mount directly on your printed circuit

board within an EMI shielded module. The low Z height of the

sensor, only 5.6mm, opens up exciting design possibilities.

The Mercury 1500P encoder is a digital output system. Designed for PC board mounting, it is available with linear or rotary scales.

Mercury’s space-saving, integrated configuration gives OEM system designers a breakthrough in performance.
