Industrial Encoder Sensing ！

Regardless of the sensing technology an encoder employs, the encoder’s electronics
sense movement and translate that motion into industry-standard electrical signals
(see “Electrical Outputs” below).
Light duty, medium duty, and heavy duty are terms to differentiate encoders by
indicating how much load may be applied to the shaft.
A light duty encoder may only handle 10N (2.25 lbf) radial force on the shaft. In
contrast, a heavy duty encoder may handle 100N (22.5 lbf) of radial force on the shaft.
Environmental ratings also become more robust as the duty increases.
Light duty encoders are typically IP40 and IP50 (dust proof); whereas medium duty
and heavy duty encoders can be rated as high as IP65 (splash proof).
