The GA241 - SSI: Baumer SSI Interface Absolute Encoder offers precise singleturn position feedback using an optical sensing mechanism and a 16-bit resolution. It supports SSI communication and optional Incremental A 90Β° B output for compatibility with most control systems. The encoder is powered by a versatile 10β¦30 VDC supply and optionally supports 5 VDC Β±10% when needed. Built with a ΓΈ6 mm solid shaft and ΓΈ58 mm flange, it is compact enough for integration in tight spaces while offering robust performance across applications. Its operating speed supports up to 10000 rpm mechanically and 6000 rpm electrically, making it ideal for fast-moving systems. With an absolute accuracy of Β±0.025Β° and starting torque as low as 0.01 Nm, it offers both speed and precision. The lightweight design (approx. 250 g) includes a durable aluminium housing and flange, built to withstand industrial conditions including vibrations up to 10 g and shock loads up to 200 g. It meets IP54/IP65 protection standards, depending on the sealing configuration, and supports extreme temperatures ranging from -25Β°C to +85Β°C or optionally down to -40Β°C. Connectivity options like M23 12-pin, M12 8-pin, and a 1-meter cable ensure easy integration into any system.
The Baumer GA241 - SSI is ideally suited for high-speed automation equipment, positioning systems, and intelligent robotics where reliable singleturn rotary feedback is critical. Typical applications include pick-and-place systems, servo motors, machine tools, conveyor tracking systems, and inspection equipment. Engineers prefer this model in environments where compact design, consistent accuracy, and electronic compatibility with SSI are key. Its ability to perform reliably in fast-paced and rugged environments makes it a trusted choice across automotive, packaging, electronics assembly, and smart manufacturing industries.
