Frequently Asked Questions - RV6016 IFM

What is the power supply voltage of the RV6016 encoder?
The encoder is available in two versions: 5 V TTL or 10...30 V HTL. Check the housing label for the exact version.
How to electrically connect the encoder?
De-energize the installation before any connection. Use the male connector ifm1000.xx (15-pole) or the cable ifm1013.xx (13 wires). Unused wires must be insulated.
What are the output signals of the encoder?
The encoder provides three main signals: A, B (phase-shifted by 90°) and zero index. Differential versions also provide the inverted signals.
What is the maximum allowed cable length?
The maximum length is 100 m for the 5 V TTL version and 300 m for the 10...30 V HTL version, with appropriate cables.
How to mount the encoder correctly?
Screw the encoder onto a mounting flange. Use a flexible bellows or elastic disc coupling to compensate for shaft misalignment. Avoid impacts on the shaft.
What to do in case of electrical interference noise?
Install the cables at a minimum distance of 20 cm from interference sources. The cable's braided shielding is connected to the housing to reduce interference.
How to use the zero index?
The zero index is a single pulse per mechanical revolution of the shaft. In case of power failure, it can serve as a reference to find an absolute position.
Is the encoder protected against short circuits?
Yes. 5 V TTL version: outputs protected on 0 V. HTL version: outputs protected on 0 V and L+ (max. 1 minute).
What accessories are available for the RV6016?
Accessories such as the mounting flange E60035 and connection cables are available on the website www.ifm.com.
Where to find the complete datasheet?
The datasheet and other documents are available online at www.ifm.com.

Function and features

The encoder transforms rotational movement into pulse sequences. These allow the measurement of linear distances and angular movement as well as the determination of positions.

Electrical connection

IFM RV6016 - Electrical connection - 1

Disconnect power from the installation before connecting or disconnecting cables or connectors!

Unused wires must be insulated to avoid short circuits and cross faults.

Short-circuit protection

5 V TTL version: outputs short-circuit protected against 0 V

10...30 V HTL version: outputs short-circuit protected against 0 V

Wiring is also indicated on the housing cap. If there is a deviation, the encoder must be connected as indicated on the label on the housing cap.

The wires L+ (sensor) and 0V (sensor) are internally connected to the supply voltage. When using external electronics which regulate the supply voltage these wires can be used as test wires. If unused, these wires must be connected to the supply voltage or insulated.

Depending on the version, the electrical connection is made via the cable or via cables to be obtained separately.

When using suitable cables the maximum cable length is 100 m for the 5 V TTL version and 300 m for the 10...30 V HTL version.

The cables must be laid separately from interfering sources, the minimum distance is 20 cm.

The braided screen in the cable is connected to the encoder housing.

Output signals

output A 180° 180° output B 0 index 90°

The encoder provides digital pulse sequences at the output stages. The outputs A and B are electrically offset by 90^ . Thus the direction of rotation can be evaluated in the external electronics.

The combined zero index is provided once in a mechanical revolution of the shaft. In case of power failure it can be used as a reference point within a revolution.

The inverted output signals are used for external electronics with differential voltage input to filter interference.

Installation

IFM RV6016 - Installation - 1

Do not hit the shaft, do not use a file or similar tool on the shaft: This could destroy the unit!

The encoder can be screwed to the angle bracket. The shaft should be connected using a flexible bellows or spring disc coupling to compensate for shaft displacement and to protect the encoder against damage.

Linear movements can be transformed into a rotational movement using a measuring wheel or rack and pinion. For mounting the maximum permissible shaft loads of the encoder must be taken into account.

Mounting the angle bracket on a resilient base protects the encoder against too high a stress due to roughness of the material.
