PART NUMBER:
BME
DESCRIPTION:
modular incremental encoder
The BME Series are high performance, low cost, 2 or 3 channel optical incremental encoders. Each encoder contains a
LED source, an integrated circuit with detectors and circuitry, and an optical disc which rotates between the emitter and
detector IC. These encoders can be quickly and easily mounted to a motor.

Bore type:
“blank” = standard
T = thru bore*
"blank" = no kit
Bore size:
K = kit (Digi-Key only):
300 = 3mm
contains encoder,
400 = 4mm
centering tool, and
500 = 5mm
