The Omron E6C2-CWZ6C 360P/R 2M Rotary Encoder is an incremental shaft encoder used to detect rotational movement and communicate position and speed information to industrial control systems. The encoder generates 360 P/R with A/B/Z NPN outputs, providing incremental pulse feedback that can be interpreted by compatible counters, PLCs, and machine controllers. Its electrical operating range is 5 to 24 VDC, while a 50 mm diameter housing and 2 m pre-wired cable define the mechanical and connection configuration. This model provides a 360-pulse NPN option within the E6C2-C platform for machine feedback requirements. The E6C2-CWZ6C 360P/R belongs to the E6C2-C incremental shaft encoder series. It forms part of the NPN incremental encoder range within Omron machine sensing solutions.
