Product ID: DF16

The DEUTA DF16 is a 1- to 6-channel electronic pulse generator mounted on the vehicle axle and driven via a mechanical coupling. Impervious to dirt and vibration, its mechanically defined number of pulses per revolution represents a captive product property ensuring highly reliable measurement.
Product features:
• Product description
Proven impulse sensors: Axle-mounted sensors from DEUTA are driven by a mechanical coupling on the axle of the vehicle. Impervious to dirt and vibration, they are virtually maintenance-free and achieve high resolution even at low rotational speeds
Impulse sensors in different variants: The electronic pulse generators (incremental encoders) are based on a variety of principles, for example optical barrier photocells or hall sensors. All axle-mounted sensors can be supplied as multi-channel units. They can be customised to a certain extent with regard to the number of pulses, the phase relationships, and the output circuits.
