Universal encoder systems

Safe and efficient monitoring of speed and position ranges

Modular concept with large selection of output signals and interfaces. Suitable configuration can be selected for each application.

Optimized installation to monitor speed and position ranges, for example on a hoist

- Higher positioning and switching accuracy due to direct mounting without additional gears and mechanical interfaces

- Higher system performance due to faster motion cycles

- Time-saving assembly, commissioning, inspection and unit replacement due to mounting without distributor gearboxes, simple parameterisation, convenient preset function, switch test function, parameter import function, etc.

- Shorter downtimes - higher productivity

- Lower spare parts and storage costs due to modular expandable system, uniform hardware and generation of variants via parameterisation

- Maximum safety against malfunctions thanks to two-channel system structure, internal self-monitoring and optional safety certification for applications up to SIL 2 / PL

- Simple modernisation and replacement, without complex interventions in the PLC hardware and programming


New and now available: INOX housing for all models
For the first time ever, all U-ONE(-SAFETY) device types are now available with saltwater-proof stainless steel housing. As a result, they are also suitable for use in offshore applications. The dimension drawings of these new INOX devices in the latest catalog provide an insight into their design and space requirements. Furthermore, all device types, including the INOX versions, are also now available with additional Ex protection for zones 2 and 22 on request.

Product overview

  • UOL(H) 40 / USL(H) 42 SIL 2 LWL - (Basic unit) Generation II

    UOL(H) 40 / USL(H) 42 SIL 2 LWL - (Basic unit) Generation II

    The basic units of the new second-generation universal encoder systems determine and monitor speed and position.They measure the speed and angular position of the application shaft, convert electrical signals into optical signals and transmit them to the (safety) control unit with no interference via fiber optic cable.

  • UOM(HJ) 4L / UOM(HJ) 41L SIL 2 (Basic unit) Generation I

    UOM(HJ) 4L / UOM(HJ) 41L SIL 2 (Basic unit) Generation I

    The compact basic units of the universal encoder systems are part of the first generation of this group of products. They sense and monitor speeds and positions. This solution sees the function modules housed in the switchboard, which makes them particularly compact to attach to the shaft..

  • U-ONE Generation I (LWL-System)

    U-ONE Generation I (LWL-System)

    The proven modular universal encoder systems in the first generation of U-ONE reliably determine and monitor speed and position.

  • U-ONE Generation II (LWL-System)

    U-ONE Generation II (LWL-System)

    The innovative U-ONE(-SAFETY)-LWL universal encoder systems for speed and position monitoring increase performance by making optimum use of permissible speed ranges and positioning quickly and precisely.

  • U-ONE Generation II (Compact-System) | UOC 40 / USC 42

    U-ONE Generation II (Compact-System) | UOC 40 / USC 42

    The U-ONE(-SAFETY)-Compact universal encoder systems for speed and position monitoring increase performance by making optimum use of permissible speed ranges and positioning quickly and precisely.

Module overview

  • UO-EPN / UO-SPN

    UO-EPN / UO-SPN

    The communication modules of the U-ONE(-SAFETY) second generation transmit the position, speed and status data of the shafts that need to be monitored to a higher-level controller.

  • UO-ECU / UO-SCU

    UO-ECU / UO-SCU

    The controller modules of the U-ONE(-SAFETY) second generation monitor the status of the entire universal encoder system.

  • UO-EGS / UO-SGS

    UO-EGS / UO-SGS

    The speed switch modules of the U-ONE(-SAFETY) second generation are electronic overspeed switches that monitor the defined speeds for overspeed and underspeed.

  • UO-EPB / UO-SPB

    UO-EPB / UO-SPB

    The communication modules of the U-ONE(-SAFETY) second generation transmit the position, speed and status data of the shafts that need to be monitored to a higher-level controller

  • UO-ERC / UO-SRC

    UO-ERC / UO-SRC

    The position switch modules of the U-ONE(-SAFETY) second generation monitor the position ranges via three position switches, each with configurable parameters. The combination of five modules allows a maximum of 15 position switches to be used.

  • UO-EM-AM...

    UO-EM-AM...

    The absolute encoder modules output the absolute position values of the shaft being monitored.

  • UO-EM-ERC

    UO-EM-ERC

    The electronic position switch with six programmable switching outputs (each with one on and one off switching points) are available with numerous functions.

  • UO-EM-D2 / UO-EM-D41 SIL 2

    UO-EM-D2 / UO-EM-D41 SIL 2

    FOC decoder modules convert optical FOC signals from the basic units of the universal encoders to electric signals and feed them on to other function modules of the U-ONE system.

  • UO-EM-EGS4 / UO-EM-EGS41 SIL 2

    UO-EM-EGS4 / UO-EM-EGS41 SIL 2

    The speed switch modules are electronic overspeed switches that monitor the defined speeds for overspeed and underspeed.

  • UO-EM-FG4

    UO-EM-FG4

    The incremental encoder modules for detecting speed offer three types of signals: shifted 90 degrees to the basic pulse phase, mechanically fixed reference pulse and inverted signals.
