AstroSystems Automation AC35-3-DK 1.15REV Encoder

The AstroCODER 150 AC35-3-DK is a DK-series, resolver-based programmable absolute encoder from AstroSystems Automation, delivering 12-bit absolute position feedback over a four-wire interface with four simultaneous data outputs for robust position reporting. As a programmable absolute encoder, it supports on-the-fly program changes to tailor data formats and scaling to the application, a feature documented for the AstroCODER 150 line. The AC35-3-DK variant belongs to the AC30/AC35 DK-series family, representing AstroSystems’ approach to configurable absolute feedback in industrial motion control. This encoder is typically used in servo drives and automation systems that require reliable absolute position references for precise motion control and repeatable positioning. Archived technical materials describe the AstroCODER 150 as a programmable absolute encoder, and historical catalogs indicate this line is discontinued, which can impact availability and compatibility with legacy systems.
