Motion axes in event technology usually have to meet functional safety requirements. Different manufacturers of axles and controllers have different approaches. TR has been offering suitable multi-channel absolute encoders for a wide variety of structures for years. Certified components make acceptance of the entire system easier. The safe rotary encoders of the CD_582+FS family perfectly meet the requirements of the event industry: in the compact installation space of a standard 58 mm industrial encoder there is a truly absolute multiturn double encoder system with integrated safety evaluation, which directly outputs secured position data ("safe position" - SLP). Depending on the version of the rotary encoder for the highest safety level SIL3 or PLe or as a version adapted to the requirements for SIL2 / PLd applications. This ultra-compact SIL rotary encoder fits into a wide variety of mounting situations: With the solid shaft, a slot and a feather key ensure the necessary form fit between the application and the sensor, with blind hole shafts and through hollow shafts up to 15 mm, a slot in the hollow shaft.
Depending on the control environment, CD_582+FS supports different interfaces:
- PROFINET/PROFIsafe
- Ethernet/IP with CIPsafety
- Powerlink with OpenSAFETY
- CANopen safety according to CiA DS304

Wherever a standard 58 mm encoder is used, the CD_582+FS can be used to provide an axis, a system module or a machine with safety functions in accordance with the current basic and implementation standards. In principle, the CD_582+FS fits anywhere where the non-functionally safe CE_582 and CM_582 can also be installed. With CD_582+FS, the use of certified safe components is no longer a question of installation space.
