Allen-Bradley 1738-SSIM23

Allen-Bradley 1738-SSIM23 | ArmorPoint SSI Absolute Encoder Interface Module

Overview

The Allen-Bradley 1738-SSIM23 is an ArmorPoint I/O module designed to interface with SSI (Synchronous Serial Interface) absolute encoders. It facilitates precise position data acquisition from encoders supporting standard SSI protocols, including linear, rotary, and optical distance measuring devices. Equipped with an M23 connector, this module ensures secure and reliable connections in industrial environments. Its IP67-rated housing allows for direct machine mounting without the need for additional enclosures.
