Description
Agilent Technologies offers a
wide variety of codewheels for
use with Agilent's HEDS-9000,
HEDS-9100, HEDS-9040, and
HEDS-9140 series Encoder
Modules. Designed for many
environments, applications, and
budgets, Agilent codewheels are
available in Glass, Film, and
Metal. These codewheels are
available in resolutions from 96
Counts Per Revolution (CPR) to
1024 CPR on an 11 mm optical
radius and 500 to 2048 CPR on a
23.36 mm optical radius.
Each of the three codewheel
materials offers a certain
advantage. Metal codewheels are
the most versatile, with a tem-
perature rating up to 100
C,
resolution to 512 CPR (28 mm
diameter), as well as 2 and 3
channel outputs. Film codewheels
offer higher resolution (up to
1024 CPR on a 28 mm diameter)
with an operating temperature of
70
C. Glass codewheels combine
the best of film and metal, offer-
ing a temperature rating of 100
C
and resolutions to 1024 CPR on a
28 mm diameter.
In addition, each material offers a
specific reliability rating. It is
important to consider the specific
application operating environ-
ment, long term operating
conditions, and temperature
ranges when choosing a code-
wheel material.

Ratings
It is important to consider the
environment in which the
codewheels will be used when
selecting a codewheel material. In
brief, metal codewheels are
rugged, but do not offer higher
resolution capabilities. Film
codewheels allow higher
resolution, but cannot endure the
same temperatures and high
humidity as metal. Glass
codewheels offer both high
temperature and higher
resolution, but are also more
expensive. Consider the following
rating table when choosing a
codewheel material.

consistent, large temperature
swings over the life of the product
will affect the codewheel
performance characteristics
depending on the material. The

results of lifetests under varying
conditions of temperature and

Mounting with Module
Side A as the Mounting
Plane
Mounting a high resolution or
three channel encoder with
Module Side A as the mounting
plane requires alignment pins in
the motor base. These alignment
pins provide the necessary
centering of the module with
respect to the center of the motor
shaft. In addition to centering, the
codewheel gap is also important.
Please refer to the respective
encoder data sheet for necessary
mounting information.
*Please note that the image side of the codewheel must always be facing the module Side A.
mounting the module with side B
as the mounting plane. When
assembling the encoder and
codewheel, it is important to
maintain the tolerances of Side A
of the module, and the image side
of the codewheel. See module
Data Sheets for these tolerances.

The pins of the alignment tool
should fit snugly inside the
alignment recesses of the
module.
5. While holding alignment tool in
place, tighten screws down to
secure module.
6. Remove alignment tools.
