Baumer BDK Series Optical Incremental Encoder 30V dc, 360 ppr, HTL/Push Pull Signal, Solid Shaft 5 mm BDK 16.24K360-5-4

Baumer BDK 16.24K360-5-4 is an optical Incremental Encoder designed for high precision motion control in industrial and automation environments. It features a robust solid 5 mm shaft and offers 360 pulses per revolution (ppr), enabling fine resolution feedback for rotary motion applications.

This encoder supports a maximum rotational speed of 12,000 rpm, making it suitable for dynamic machinery and equipment requiring fast and accurate positioning feedback. The device outputs an HTL/Push Pull complementary signal compatible with HTL or TTL interfaces, ensuring noise-resistant transmission over the attached 1 meter cable.

The compact housing measures 34 mm in depth and 30 mm in width, facilitating integration in tight spaces. It is mounted via a synchro flange mount for secure installation. The unit operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -20°C up to 85°C, with an IP42 ingress protection rating that guards against solid objects and dust ingress typical of indoor industrial environments.

The switching frequency of 100 kHz supports rapid signal processing required for high-speed automation, while the 30V dc supply voltage ensures efficient power consumption. The encoder is manufactured in Switzerland to high quality standards, complying with UL approvals for safety and performance assurance.

Typical industrial use cases include automation control systems, manufacturing machinery, robotics, and process control where precise rotational position sensing is critical. As part of the Baumer BDK Series, this encoder combines miniaturized design with reliable optical technology for demanding environments.
