Bourns new 12mm double concentric rotary encoder

     Bourns introduced a new 12mm dual concentric rotary encoder series with two encoders in a single package. Bourns PEC11D can assist designers in using only a single encoder in applications that require two encoder functions. Bourns ® PEC11D series has a high IP40 sealing level, a 15000 rpm life rating and a working temperature of - 40 to+85 ° C, providing a highly reliable solution for a wide range of applications such as professional audio and lighting, communication, testing and measuring equipment, low/medium risk medical * * diagnostic and laboratory equipment, and industrial automation control.

     Bourns new encoder series adopts metal bushing and metal double concentric shaft, with two orthogonal outputs, which can provide phase and direction information. This series also has a momentary push button switch with a rated switching life of 20000 times. In addition, under the same package size of other specifications, it also has two switch options, high stroke number and standard stroke number. This switch option enables the encoder to adapt to the needs and application environment of individual customers.

     Alain Leon, Product Line Manager of Bourns Sensor, said: "More than 70 years ago, Bourns led the market with its breakthrough potentiometer design and successfully improved the performance function of the instrument. Today's new dual concentric rotary encoder with switches is the first dual concentric rotary encoder designed by Bourns specifically to meet the density requirements of today's circuit boards. It is also a successful case to prove that Bourns is continuously committed to developing products with advanced functions and innovative quality."
