4B Group has introduced the Encoder-Flex 1024, a configurable multi-function encoder designed for monitoring position or speed. The Encoder-Flex 1024 has many applications and is very well suited to monitor the position of rack and pinion gates, angular position of distributors, as well as shaft speed for rotating machines such as bucket elevators and conveyors. The new, ATEX-approved Encoder-Flex 1024 has numerous industrial applications in one design.

With a compact, stainless-steel design, the Encoder-Flex 1024 provides the robustness for harsh industrial environments.  The fully sealed body has an innovative local calibration facility that does not require opening the unit; simply apply an external magnet briefly to calibrate. Providing even more flexibility, resolution can be programmed for 1 to 1024 pulses per rotation.

In addition, the Encoder-Flex 1024 provides 4-20 mA, quadrature-pulsed and Modbus RTU outputs in one single model, giving the user the versatility and flexibility to connect many different controllers and displays.
