Rotary encoder for medical technology

Reliable sensors for continuous operation

Medical applications require all components to be extremely accurate, reliable and safe.

Equipment such as CAT scanners or volumetric drug delivery systems operate around the clock and have to function flawlessly. This means that the sensors used for linear position and angle measurement need to be able to guarantee maximum precision, high repeatability and optimal fail safety.

Sensors for use in medical applications

The contactless and non-contacting rotary encoders in Contelec’s Vert-X series are high-precision, durable rotary sensors that deliver stable accuracy throughout their entire lifespan. They are available with partial, full and multiple redundancy.

Models with particularly small dimensions, such as the Vert-X 13 and Vert-X 16 series, are perfect for installation in highly integrated systems where space is tight.

Potentiometric sensors are particularly good for certain applications, and Contelec also delivers the vital precision and reliability required in these medical applications with its proven conductive plastic technology.
