Talon Encoder Checker Meter

Test your Encoder with CONFIDENCE!

The Talon Encoder Checker can pay for itself the first time you use it to repair or confirm a bad or malfunctioning Encoder.

Use it to:

·  Test digital Encoders (5, 12, & 24 Volts)

·  Troubleshoot digital readouts (DRO’S)

·  Count/verify pulses per revolution (PPR)

·  Adjust Encoder after cleaning or repair

·  Test for weak or dead signal output

·  Test for intermittent phase jitter

·  Check phase angle

Detect the leading cause of inaccurate motion!

Oscilloscopes can be used to test Encoders but can be difficult to operate and still require additional equipment to provide a full and accurate test. The Talon Encoder Checker combines the accuracy of an Oscilloscope with the support electronics to properly load the Encoder output, the only way to properly test an Encoder. Save time and money by investing in a reliable instrument that is very easy to use and designed specifically for encoder testing. Comes with our manual that will step you through each test ensuring accurate results.

Specifications:

Power – 24VDC @ 400mA (US 110V wall adapter provided)

User Interface = Keypad on front with scroll through menu

Transition Cable = Standard cable with tinned ends is included.  We can provide cables with encoder specific plug on the end to for additional cost.  Contact us with your needs for a quote.

Modules = As delivered the Talon Encoder Checker will test Encoders that are 5VDC without applying a load to the outputs.  Modules are available for higher voltages such as 12 & 24VDC and for applying a load to encoder output which simulates it being connected to a drive or control (the proper way to test). See chart below to create your module number or contact me with your Encoder data sheet and exact part number and I can look it up for you.  Modules are only $50.00 each when ordered at same time as the meter.

ATTENTION SSI SERIAL ENCODER OWNERS – We have the ability to provide modules that will provide testing for Serial Encoders.  We have done some already with great results.  Here is how it works.  We make a module with known good example of working encoder data stream.  When you test another encoder, it compares the current data with the known good data.  If they match, the encoder is good.  If they do not match, the Encoder is bad.  Contact me with your encoder information to get a quote.
