The Omron E6C2-CWZ5B 360P/R 2M Rotary Encoder is an incremental shaft encoder configured for rotational position and motion feedback in industrial machinery. It provides 360 P/R resolution with A/B/Z PNP outputs, allowing compatible controllers to receive incremental signals corresponding to shaft rotation. A 12 to 24 VDC supply powers the encoder, while its 50 mm diameter housing provides the mechanical format for shaft-mounted applications. The 2 m pre-wired cable provides connection distance between the encoder and associated electrical control equipment. This 360-pulse configuration provides a lower-resolution PNP option within the same encoder platform. The E6C2-CWZ5B 360P/R belongs to the E6C2-C Series. It can be compared with other 360 P/R incremental encoders forming part of Omron industrial automation products.
