IBOX range
:: Voltage or Current Probe Input Option
:: X5 or X10 Interpolation
:: IBox IP65 Rated
:: DC Powered
IBOXES interpolate and digitise sinusoidal current or voltage signals from sinewave Linear Encoders and provides an output of two square wave pulse trains plus a reference mark and fault signal. The IBOX is powered from 5v dc and is available either housed in a large metal case (IBox) or alternatively in a small screened plastic case (iBox) to suit most applications. Both are E.M.C. protected and very robust.
We can mount various types of connectors to the end of the iBox output cable (contact us for supplementary information).
