Encoders / Tacho

An encoder or tachometer is an essential component of an elevator control system, used to measure the speed and position of the elevator car. It provides feedback to the elevator control system, which uses this information to regulate the speed and position of the elevator car accurately.

The encoder/tachometer is usually mounted on the elevator motor and provides real-time information on the motor's speed and position. This information is then used by the elevator control system to regulate the motor's speed and direction, ensuring that the elevator car moves smoothly and stops at the correct floors.

In summary, an encoder or tachometer is used in elevators to accurately measure the speed and position of the elevator car, which helps ensure that the elevator operates safely and efficiently. Verticale Australia supply a broad range of high quality encoder products.
