The HOG 86 E is Baumer Hubner's economy-tier entry into the Heavy Duty hollow-shaft encoder range, built to carry over the core mechanical durability of the HeavyDuty line (double bearing support, high shaft load capacity, shock resistance) at a more accessible price point for applications that need HeavyDuty reliability without every premium feature of the top-tier models. It's rated for a wide 9–30V supply, operates from -40°C to +100°C, and is housed in a robust, compact metal casing designed for direct hollow-shaft mounting on motor and drive shafts. Where it earns the "Heavy Duty" name is in the details that actually determine encoder lifespan: bearings positioned at both shaft ends with generous spacing between them, a 450 N shaft load rating, and shaft insulation rated to 2.8 kV, protecting against the electrical bearing damage that shortens the life of cheaper encoders on VFD-driven motors.
Shaft insulation rated up to 2.8 kV protects the encoder's internal bearings from stray induced currents common on motors driven by frequency converters — a failure mode that quietly degrades bearing lubricant and shortens service life on unprotected encoders.
TTL output driver supports cable runs up to 550 m — useful where the controller or drive is positioned well away from the encoder, such as on large machines, cranes, or plant layouts with long cable routing.

It carries over the core mechanical durability features that define Baumer Hübner's HeavyDuty range, double bearing support, high shaft load capacity, and shaft insulation, at a more accessible price point, without every premium feature (such as extended corrosion protection or ATEX hazardous-area certification) found on top-tier HeavyDuty models.
Motors driven by frequency converters can develop stray induced currents that pass through an encoder's bearings, damaging the lubricant and shortening service life over time. The HOG 86 E's shaft insulation, rated up to 2.8 kV, protects against this common failure mode.
Up to 450 N, supported by two bearings positioned with large spacing at each end of the shaft, a configuration that distributes mechanical load more evenly than a single-bearing design.
The TTL output driver supports cable runs up to 550 m, suitable for large machines or installations where the controller is positioned well away from the encoder.
-40°C to +100°C operating temperature, with a 9–30 VDC voltage supply range.
Yes. The terminal box connection can be rotated by 180°, allowing installers to route cabling in the direction that best suits the mounting orientation.
Up to 250 g, giving it solid resilience against sudden mechanical impacts typical of industrial machine operation.
Supply ability is frequent, on a weekly basis, suited to ongoing production or maintenance-stock needs. Samples are available, contact for details on the sample policy before placing a larger order.
