The Kuebler Sendix 5878 is a versatile optical rotary encoder engineered to deliver precise singleturn absolute feedback with a resolution of up to 16 bits. This encoder is ideal for use in PLC-based control systems, decentralized automation setups, and fieldbus-integrated motion control environments thanks to its native CANopen protocol.
Built with flexibility in mind, the encoder supports a wide range of blind hollow shaft sizes including 3/8", 1/2", 10 mm, 12 mm, 14 mm, and 15 mm. It offers several flange options — Ø 58 mm, Ø 63 mm, and Ø 65 mm — for mechanical compatibility with various motor and equipment configurations. With a rotational speed capability of up to 9000 min⁻¹ and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +80°C, it performs reliably in both standard and demanding environments.
The Sendix 5878 provides multiple connection types including radial cable exits, M12 and M23 radial connectors, and a terminal box for easy wiring. Its enclosure is rated up to IP67, ensuring protection from dust, moisture, and vibration. Powered by a 10–30 V DC supply and weighing just 530 g, the encoder balances robust design with operational efficiency.
The Kuebler Sendix 5878 Encoder is designed for industrial motion control applications where accurate absolute position feedback and rugged performance are essential. It is widely used in packaging machinery, intralogistics systems, printing equipment, and decentralized automation where CANopen-based communication is preferred.
Its compact design and wide shaft compatibility allow easy integration into both new systems and retrofit installations. The encoder’s IP65/IP67 sealing makes it well-suited for environments exposed to dust, oil, or vibrations — such as material handling equipment, automotive assembly lines, and robotics. Its terminal box and connector variants simplify field wiring and commissioning processes.
If you need a compact and high-speed encoder for CANopen-compatible control systems, the Sendix 5878 by Kuebler delivers robust, real-time absolute encoder feedback with durability and precision that meets today’s industrial automation standards.
