Manufacturer: Tokyo Sokuteikizai Co., Ltd.
Made In Japan.
Model: RE19

Features

• Slim design (8.5mm):
  Thin and compact (19.2 × 21.3 × 8.5mm), allowing for effective use of the rear side of panels.
• Variations:
  There are three mounting methods for direct attachment to printed circuit boards: horizontal mounting, vertical mounting, and front mounting. Additionally, there are types with lead wires, allowing for various panel attachment options.
• Prevention of flux intrusion:
  The terminal section uses a molded structure, and the integrated design prevents flux intrusion during soldering.
• Sealed structure:
  The O-ring ensures the main unit is sealed.
• Panel waterproofing:
  Panel waterproofing is achievable by using waterproof washers.
• Optical rotary encoder:
  The optical rotary encoder provides an output signal without chattering and offers long life due to non-contact detection.
• RoHS compliant:
  The product is compliant with the RoHS directive, meaning it does not contain the six regulated hazardous substances.

Description

Many electronic devices have built-in microcomputers to control the devices, perform calculations, and perform communications, but manual input rotary encoders (rotary knobs, digital potentiometers, etc.) are used as an analog data input method for setting values, setting rates, moving markers, controlling motors, selecting functions, or scrolling through statements from the microcomputer. The ultra-thin rotary encoder RE19 series is a manual rotary encoder designed with consideration given to the external dimensions, mounting method, internal structure, etc., so that it can be used widely in measuring instruments, medical equipment, industrial equipment, communication devices, machine tools, etc.
