CANopen Safety encoders for safer motion control

The TBN/TMN/TRN CANopen Safety encoder range provides absolute position feedback with CANopen Safety SIL2, combining precise measurement with safety-related communication over established CAN networks. CANopen Safety adds additional mechanisms for detecting communication errors, helping safety systems identify corrupted, delayed or incorrect data.

Available in single-turn and multi-turn configurations, the range offers resolutions up to 65,536 steps per revolution, with the TMN capable of tracking up to 262,144 revolutions. A miniature version and bearingless kit encoder with external magnet provide further flexibility when installation space or mechanical integration is a consideration.

Designed for demanding industrial environments, the encoders feature IP65/IP66 protection as standard, with IP68/IP69K options available. ATEX variants are also available for applications in Zones 1/21 and 2/22.

The TBN/TMN/TRN range is suited to safety-related motion applications including material handling systems, AGVs and AMRs, palletisers, lift systems, robotic cells and automated machinery, where dependable position feedback forms part of the machine safety architecture.

For OEMs and machine builders, the range provides a practical way to integrate safety-related position feedback while retaining the connectivity and flexibility of CAN-based communication.
