Introduction

The LE12/25 Linear Encoder with current or voltage

output, when used with suitable interfacing electronics,

provide a precision linear measurement system. The

current version (designated I) provides industrial

standard current in-phase and quadrature-phase

signals. The voltage version (designated V) provides

equivalent voltage signals.

Solartron also produce a digital version of the Linear

Encoders, which can be used with Solartron DRO’s or

the Orbit network to create measuring systems.

This Manual

Describes the Linear Encoder types LE12/25 both

pneumatic and spring versions with either current or

voltage output.

This manual details the handling, installation and

operation of the encoder and describes the electrical

interfaces.

1.0: Introduction

Manual Part No. 502350 Issue 2

Terms in this manual

WARNING statements identify conditions or

practices that could result in personal injury or loss

of life.

CAUTION statements identify conditions or practices

that could result in damage to the equipment or

other property.

Symbols in this manual

This symbol indicates where applicable

cautionary or other information is to be found.

WARNINGS:

Do not operate in an explosive atmosphere

To avoid explosion, do not operate this equipment in

an explosive atmosphere.

Air Pressure

On LE/12/P and LE/25/P variants under no

circumstances should the recommended maximum

overpressure of 1.0 bar be exceeded.

NOTES:

This equipment contains no user serviceable parts

This equipment must be returned to your Solartron

dealer for all servicing and repair (see section 10.0).

Low Voltage

This equipment operates at below the SELV and is

therefore outside the scope of the Low Voltage

Directive.

le12-25-sv-si-pv-pi_2.qxd 18/02/04 15:51 Page 3

Items Supplied

Linear Encoder Probe in packaging case.

Standard tip (measuring contact) fitted.

Finger lift lever.

Locking tool.

Operating instructions.

Calibration chart.

Plus other accessories as ordered.

3.0: Designation of Parts

Manual Part No. 502350 Issue 2

le12-25-sv-si-pv-pi_2.qxd 18/02/04 15:51 Page 4

The Solartron range of Linear Encoders are precision

instruments and should be handled with care. Where

possible, the Linear Encoder should be stored in its

protective box when not being used.

These Linear Encoders are designed to be maintenance

free; additional periodic lubrication is unnecessary.

Contacts with solvents should be avoided. Any attempt

to dismantle the Linear Encoder will invalidate the

warranty.

CAUTIONS

Ensure that the probe is not subjected to

excessive over-travel, or side loading at the tip

greater than that corresponding to a 0.5mm lift

on a Ø3 ball.

When mounting the Linear Encoder avoid the

risk of distortion of the bearing assembly by

over-tightening of the mounting screws around

the clamping shank.

Notes:

It is important to ensure that the probe is

perpendicular to the measuring table to avoid

introducing cosine errors.

Do not use excessive torque when tightening gauge

stand clamp screws (see next section).

Keep cable away from moving parts to avoid

potential damage.

Protect probe against shock loading or impact!

5.0: Mechanical Installation

le12-25-sv-si-pv-pi_2.qxd 18/02/04 15:51 Page 6

5.1 Clamping Configurations

When mounting

Linear Encoder do

not over tighten

clamp screws.

Recommended maximum tightening torque

Where d = screw dia mm

P = screw pitch mm

assuming a ‘V’ form thread and 0.15 coefficient of

friction.

Note: A clearance hole in the fixturing of Ø9.5mm is

advisable around the gaiter for satisfactory

operation.

5.2 Replacing the probe tip

1. Slide back gaiter (fitted to IP65 and pneumatic

versions only) to reveal the hole in the shaft.

2. Insert locking tool (supplied) in the hole.

3. Unscrew tip while holding locking tool to prevent

any damage to the read head.

4. Install new tip while holding locking tool.

5. Torque tip to 18-22 cNm.

6. Slide down gaiter, (IP65 and pneumatic versions

only).

6.1 Finger lift lever

Snaps over probe tip

enabling tip to be lifted

without transferring heat

to shaft.

6.2 Cable lift

Allows tip to be retracted

without touching Linear

Encoder. Cable retract

screws into probe body

after removal of blanking

screw.

6.3 Pneumatic operation

A Pneumatic nozzle is

fitted as standard to

LE/12/P & LE/25/P. By

applying air between 0.5

& 0.8 bar, measuring tip

will extend to meet

component under test.

On no account should a

pressure exceeding

1.0 bar be applied.

WARNING: Damage/injury could be caused if the

maximum recommended air pressure is exceeded.

CAUTION

Ensure that the air supply for pneumatic

operation is clean, dry and oil free.
