We offer a precision-engineered replacement for the DAF58-12B18, designed to fully replicate the 4–20 mA absolute output signal and mechanical mounting dimensions of the original unit. This 1:1 alternative is produced through a custom non-standard process and delivered within 15 working days, allowing seamless installation without any adjustments. It provides a reliable solution for clients facing procurement difficulties or needing to replace older models in critical industrial applications.
This replacement encoder ensures robust current-loop feedback suitable for extended cable runs and environments with electrical interference. It provides consistent absolute position readings, supporting long-term accuracy and operational stability. Applications include automated material handling, mechanical assembly lines, and process control systems where high precision and signal reliability are essential.
