H-3301 Digital Shaft Encoder

The H-3301 is easy to use and works with any SDI-12 data recorder. For older loggers, ALERT systems and the weather service LARK, the H-3301 has a quadrature output that is compatible with Handar 436A type shaft encoder.

The “Serial-Digital Interface” is ideal for data logging applications with the following requirements:
• Battery powered operation with minimal current drain
• Low system cost
• Multiple sensors on a simple three wire cable
• Up to 250 feet of cable between a sensor and the data recorder
(Use of H-423, SDI-12 to RS485 converter extends the range to 1000’s of feet)

The H-3301 has the following features:
• Scales the encoder position into user units of feet, meters, etc.
• Precision dual bearing design with special low temperature lubricant
• Threaded shaft compatible with older mechanical shaft encoders.
• Zero backlash
• 200 counts per revolution for the SDI-12 output
• Sealed enclosure protects from moisture and dirt
• Low current operation (less than 800 microamps typical standby)
• High speed encoder circuitry prevents missing counts due to rapid float movement from wave action or sudden movement in freeze/thaw conditions – 15 ft/sec typical
• Water resistant connectors provide easy hookup.
