The Omron E6C2-CWZ1X 360P/R 2M Rotary Encoder is an incremental shaft encoder configured to transmit rotational information through differential line-driver signals. It provides 360 P/R resolution with A/-A, B/-B, and Z/-Z outputs, enabling compatible motion and position controllers to receive shaft movement, direction, and reference information. The encoder operates from 5 VDC and combines a 50 mm diameter housing with a 2 m pre-wired cable for connection to the machine control system. Its 360-pulse configuration provides a distinct resolution option within the line-driver variants of the E6C2-C platform. The E6C2-CWZ1X 360P/R identifies the model within the E6C2-C Series. It is grouped with other line-driver shaft encoders available as part of Omron machine automation products.
