Accurate Technologies ProScale190 Linear Encoder, 10″ Range, 120″ Cable, Basic LCD Readout

Description

The ProScale Model 190 is a precision inductive incremental measuring system designed for reliable, high-accuracy linear position measurement in industrial and workshop applications. Using advanced inductive encoding technology, the Model 190 delivers exceptional accuracy and repeatability in a flexible, scalable platform that supports both battery and DC-powered operation. Its captive encoder design eliminates gap-setting hassles, making installation and daily use straightforward and dependable.

These encoders require a constant power source to maintain their position — a good battery in the digital readout provides this, even when the LCD is off. The system can be configured as either Scale Stationary with Encoder Moving, or Scale Moving with Encoder Stationary, offering versatile mounting options for a wide range of machinery and measurement setups.

Key Features & Benefits

High-Precision Measurement

• Accuracy of ±0.002″ when installed correctly for dependable, repeatable results.
• Repeatability of ±0.001″ ensures consistent measurements across repeated cycles.
• Resolution supports inches to 4 decimal places, millimeters to 2 decimal places, and fractions to 1/64th divisions on most readouts.

Simple Installation & Operation

• Captive encoder design — no gap to set. The encoder rides directly on the scale, eliminating alignment guesswork.
• Flexible mounting in Scale Stationary/Encoder Moving or Scale Moving/Encoder Stationary configurations.
• Battery or 12–24 VDC operation with compatible readouts available for either power source.

Performance & Reliability

• Encoder speed up to 120 inches (3,000 mm) per second for fast-moving applications.
• Maximum slew rate of approximately 80 inches (2,000 mm) per second for the inductive incremental technology.
• High noise immunity — electrical noise, magnetic fields, and power transients rarely affect measurement accuracy or signal integrity.

Scalable & Connected

• Supports multiple encoders and readouts operating simultaneously on the same scale for multi-axis or multi-user setups.
• Wireless data systems available with 2-way ProRF-SPC or encoder wireless data transmitters.
• Wired (cabled) data acquisition solutions also available for direct machine integration.

Quality & Compliance

• Made in the USA with a 3-year warranty.
• RoHS compliant — lead-free product.
