The MEC-POL-2 is a high-performance polarization positioner designed to support heavy loads up to 454 kg (1,000 lb). It features a brushless servo motor that provides precise control for accurate positioning. With absolute position feedback, you can trust that your positioning will be accurate and repeatable. The positioner also offers user-adjustable hardware limits, allowing you to customize it to meet your specific application requirements. Additionally, the MEC-POL-2 positioner offers versatile configuration options, ensuring that it can be tailored to suit your needs. Whether you need performance enhancements, added convenience features, or increased protection, this positioner has you covered.
Factory Installed Options:
| Options | Definitions |
|---|---|
| Position Feedback | PF1: Off-axis absolute encoder Standard absolute feedback with Encoder |
| Limit Switch | LS0: No limits, continuous rotation |
| LS1: Restricted rotation up to ±200 degrees (adjustable) | |
| RF Path | RJ Rotary Joint (Continuous Rotation): Adds a single channel RF path inside the positioner supporting continuous, unrestricted rotation of the axis. The factory installed kit contains RF rotary joint and internal RF cabling.
MEC-RJ18: RF path, continuous rotation, DC-18GHz, SMA connector |
| RF Path (Restricted Rotation): Adds a single channel RF path inside the positioner with restricted travel of the positioner up to a ±200 degree travel range. The factory installed kit contains internal RF cabling.
MEC-RFP18: RF path, restricted rotation +/-200 Deg, DC-18 GHZ, SMA connector |
|
| Electrical Path |
CRT (Continuous Rotation for Thru-Contacts): Adds an electrical path inside the positioner supporting continuous unrestricted rotation for dedicated thru-contacts. The factory installed kit contains an internal electrical slip-ring assembly and internal wiring. MEC-CRT24: Wiring support for 24 thru-contacts, continuous rotation |
|
RRT (Restricted Rotation for Thru-Contacts): Adds an electrical path inside the positioner supporting restricted rotation up to ±200 degrees for dedicated thru-contacts. The factory installed kit contains an internal wiring harness, cap and chain protectors. MEC-RRT24: Wiring support for 24 thru-contacts, restricted rotation +/-200 Deg |
|
| Convenience and Protection |
Center Access Tube: Adds an access tube installed inside the center of the positioner to support cabling in restricted travel applications and service loops. This option can not be combined with standard RF and electrical path options. MEC-CA1: Center Access Tube |
|
Stow-Pin: Adds manual stow-pin and mating receptacle to protect the positioner’s drive-train in susceptible environments such as high wind-gust exposure in outdoor environments and high-load pick-up mode applications. Includes electrical interlock circuit for disabling the servo system when stow-pin is inserted. Default position is zero (0) degrees. Alternate stow-pin angle locations are available upon request.
