How Do You Determine The Replacement Encoder - Siemens SIMOTICS S-1FK7 G2 Service Instructions Manual

Description

2.4 How do you determine the replacement encoder?

2.4 How do you determine the replacement encoder?
You require the encoder Article number to order a replacement encoder.
You can determine the Article number in the following three ways.
● You can read the Article number at the inner side of the defective encoder.
● You can determine the Article number through "spares on web" in the Internet.
● You can determine the Article number in the following tables.
Details are provided in the following sections.
You can read the Article number at the inner side of the defective encoder.
Requirement
For the following procedure, you require a tool to remove the encoder.
Procedure
1. Stop the motor.
2. Remove the encoder as described in Chapter " How do you replace the defective
encoder? (Page 34)".
3. You can read the Article number on the inner side of the defective encoder type plate.
1
The actual type plate depends on the manufacturer and encoder type.
The Article number of an encoder that can be replaced always starts with 6FX2001-
☐☐☐☐☐-☐☐☐☐
4. Note down the encoder Article number.
You have determined the encoder Article number.
❒
Based on the determined encoder Article number, you can directly order an encoder that has
not been written to (not loaded with data).
If you wish to order an encoder loaded with the data associated with the motor, then you
must change the last position of the Article number to "1".
Example: "6FX2001-☐☐☐☐☐-☐☐☐0" → "6FX2001-☐☐☐☐☐-☐☐☐1"
Once you have selected the appropriate encoder, enter an order as described in Chapter
"How do you order a replacement encoder? (Page 29) ".
