The HD20 Harsh-Duty Optical Encoder is a compact heavy-duty encoder designed to exceed IP66/IP67 and NEMA 6 enclosure requirements. It is also available in stainless steel that exceeds NEMA 4X and NEMA 6P requirements and is ideal for stringent wash down environments, including those where high pressure steam or caustic chemicals are needed to meet regulatory requirements.
