Omron E6B2-CWZ5B 2000P/R 0.5M Rotary Encoder
The Omron E6B2-CWZ5B 2000P/R 0.5M Rotary Encoder is an incremental shaft encoder developed for applications requiring high-resolution rotational feedback with a PNP interface. It provides 2000 P/R resolution with A/B/Z PNP outputs, generating incremental signals for position, direction, and speed monitoring through compatible industrial controllers. The encoder operates from 12 to 24 VDC and uses a 40 mm diameter housing with a 0.5 m pre-wired cable for compact machine installations. Its combination of 2000 pulses per revolution and PNP output distinguishes this configuration from NPN and line-driver variants. The E6B2-CWZ5B 2000P/R belongs to the E6B2-C incremental encoder series. It sits within the 2000 P/R PNP encoder range associated with Omron machine automation products.
