Baumer HOG800 Series: High-Performance Encoders for Industrial Applications!

Baumer’s HOG800 series of encoders is designed to deliver exceptional performance for demanding applications in industries such as cranes, hoists, cold rolling mills, and asynchronous motors. Built to the highest standards of accuracy and reliability, these encoders are engineered to withstand mechanical stress, corrosion, shaft currents, and overvoltage, ensuring long-lasting and consistent operation in harsh environments.

The HOG800 series encoders come equipped with an advanced sensor suite, allowing for easy reading and labeling of electronic nameplates, output circuit parameterization, and the monitoring of sensor conditions, outputs, temperature, and duty cycles. This continuous monitoring helps identify potential issues early, promoting proactive maintenance and reducing downtime.

Featuring a compact design, the HOG800 series has a housing width of just 84 mm, making it space-efficient while maintaining durability in demanding conditions. The sealed design, with an IP40 rating, ensures protection against dirt and dust, while the terminal box with plug-in terminals provides easy and safe wiring for installation in the field.

The HOG800 series is available in four distinct variations to suit different industrial needs. The HOG840 is a cost-effective encoder designed for wind turbines and machinery, offering good corrosion protection according to DIN EN ISO 12944. The HOG860 model provides advanced parameterization, status monitoring, a wider temperature range, and enhanced electrical protection, making it suitable for more demanding machines and asynchronous drive applications. The HOG870 is a redundant encoder designed for safety-critical applications, offering dual sensing and evaluation. Meanwhile, the HOG890 includes three digital switches that enable long-distance transfer of data such as status, direction, speed, and standstill information to the control unit, enhancing operational monitoring and control.

Baumer’s HOG800 series encoders offer robust solutions for a wide range of industrial applications, enhancing performance, reliability, and ease of use across various sectors.
