250 count encoder wheel

[DjMaddius]

Over the years we have collected a few of these encoders, but we've scratched the encoder wheel thus rendering it useless. We'd like to order them separate from the encoder it self, is this possible?

The US Digital page makes no mention of ordering the optical wheel separately, but if you contacted them it might be available.

I talked to US Digital about this. Yes, you can get just the code wheel seperately.

I asked about the 360 CPR wheel. The PN for the 360 wheel is HUBDISK-E4P-360-250, and they quoted 15.40 each (qty 1-4).

Note that you must get the same CPR code wheel as electronics, so you can't just upgrade to a higher CPR.

You can't place the order online, but you can call them at 800-736-0194.

I have not actually placed our order yet, since we're trying to combine the order with a few different encoders. Let me know how it goes for you.

As Joe mentioned you can order just the disks for around $10 a disk if I remember correctly. I ordered a bunch last year, (the 360 count, but im sure you can get 250's) USDigital is a great company to work with.
