What makes the FSI 608 stand out
Secure position feedback via FSI protocol
The FSI protocol enables the direct transmission of safety-relevant encoder data to modern safety controllers. This makes systems easier to design and integrate more efficiently – without additional hardware such as redundant signal lines or external safety modules.
Meets the highest safety requirements
The FSI 608 meets international functional safety standards (among others SIL 2/3, PL d/e) and offers:
- Safe absolute position information
- Integrated diagnostics
- Monitoring of fault conditions
- High data integrity even over long cable runs
This makes the encoder suitable for demanding safety functions such as:
- Emergency stop monitoring
- Safe speed (SLS)
- Safe position (SLP)
- Safe direction-of-rotation monitoring
Optimized for extreme industrial conditions
Leine Linde is known for extremely rugged solutions – and the FSI 608 is no exception.
Your benefits at a glance:
- High resistance to shock, heat and vibration
- A durable housing, ideal for heavy-duty applications
- Dust and moisture resistance
- Low-maintenance continuous operation
This keeps it reliable even where other encoders already reach their limits.
Easy installation & low operating costs
Thanks to its compact design, standard flange options and simple electrical integration, the FSI 608 can be easily integrated into a wide range of machine and plant concepts. Its long service life reduces maintenance intervals and minimizes total operating costs.
- Ideal for safety-critical applications:
- Steel, paper and mining industries
- Heavy drive and conveying systems
- Wind turbines
- Crane and lifting systems
- Process and energy engineering
The Leine Linde FSI 608 offers a powerful combination of precise position detection, certified functional safety and high robustness. For demanding industrial plants it is the ideal choice to ensure maximum safety, system stability and availability.
