Fewer variants are required since one freely programmable encoder supports all singleturn and multiturn resolutions
Versatility thanks to a variety of electrical connection adapters (3x PG, 3x M12)
Maintenance-free encoder, long service life
A base device that is flexible in application thanks to easily interchangeable collets for the blind hollow shaft
Quick commissioning using the zero-set/preset function either at the press of the button on the device or via software
Safer applications thanks to highly reliable shock and vibration resistance
Worldwide availability and service

The ATM60 PROFIBUS absolute multiturn encoder from SICK provides reliable positional and speed information even in harsh ambient conditions, with a resolution of up to 26 bits. This product family, which is proven in the field, is based on the principle of magnetic measurement. The 13-bit singleturn range is scanned by a sensor using permanent magnetic elements. The 13-bit multiturn range consists of a magnetic reduction gear. Equipped with a zero-set pushbutton, the encoder can be easily set to zero or to any other user-programmed value on site. The connection adapter, which can be removed from the device, makes user maintenance and mounting easy. With its magnetic scanning, rugged IP67 enclosure rating and high level of resistance to shock and vibration, the ATM60 is ideal for use in harsh conditions.
