HP 12V Motor with 48 CPR Encoder for 25D mm Metal Gearmotors (No Gearbox)

Description

This is the motor and encoder portion of our high-power (HP), 12V 25D mm metal gearmotors with 48 CPR encoders. It does not include a gearbox, but the pinion gear on the output shaft works with all of our 25D mm gearmotor gearboxes, so this can be used as a replacement motor or encoder for those gearboxes.

Key specs at 12 V: 10,200 RPM and 150 mA free-run, 5.5 oz-in (0.4 kg-cm) and 5.6 A stall.

This motor with integrated 48 CPR (counts per revolution) quadrature encoder is intended as a replacement high-power (HP) 12 V motor with encoder for our 25D mm metal gearmotors. It is intended for use at 12 V, but in general, these kinds of motors can run at voltages above and below this nominal voltage. Lower voltages might not be practical, and higher voltages could start negatively affecting the life of the motor.

The output shaft has a non-removable pinion gear that works with all of our 25D mm gearmotor gearboxes. Note that we do not sell the 25D mm gearboxes separately, but if you have a gearmotor with a damaged motor or encoder (or if you want to effectively add an encoder to a version without an encoder), you can transfer the gearbox to this replacement motor.

The motor has a diameter of 24.2 mm (0.95 in) and a length of approximately 43 mm (1.7 in) from the top of the motor can to the bottom of the encoder. The top of the motor has two mounting holes threaded for M3 screws. These mounting holes are 17 mm apart and form a line with the motor shaft at the center. The mounting holes have a depth of approximately 6.5 mm.

Other motor windings with identical dimensions and pinion gears are also available, resulting in five total options:

• High-power 6 V motor with encoder
• Low-power 6 V motor with encoder
• High-power 12 V motor with encoder
• Medium-power 12 V motor with encoder
• Low-power 12 V motor with encoder

Pinion gear specs

• Metric with module m = 0.4
• Number of teeth: 12
• Face thickness: 2.5 mm
• Pressure angle: 20°
• Gear position: 4.5 mm from top of motor to top of gear

Gearmotor options

You will typically want to combine this motor with a gearbox to give it a more appropriate combination of torque and speed (without a gearbox, it offers very high speed with very low torque). The HP 12V versions of our 25D mm metal gearmotors consist of this motor combined with different gearboxes. We do not carry the gearboxes by themselves, so unless you are looking at this as a replacement motor for a compatible gearbox you already have, we strongly recommend you consider getting a preassembled gearmotor with the gear ratio that best suits your project requirements.

A two-channel Hall effect encoder is used to sense the rotation of a magnetic disk on a rear protrusion of the motor shaft. The quadrature encoder provides a resolution of 48 counts per revolution of the motor shaft when counting both edges of both channels. To compute the counts per revolution of the gearbox output, multiply the gear ratio by 48. The motor/encoder has six color-coded, 11" (28 cm) leads terminated by a 1×6 female header with a 0.1″ pitch, as shown in the main product picture. This header works with standard 0.1″ male headers and our male jumper and precrimped wires. If this header is not convenient for your application, you can pull the crimped wires out of the header or cut the header off. The following table describes the wire functions:

The Hall sensor requires an input voltage, Vcc, between 3.5 and 20 V and draws a maximum of 10 mA. The A and B outputs are square waves from 0 V to Vcc approximately 90° out of phase. The frequency of the transitions tells you the speed of the motor, and the order of the transitions tells you the direction.
