The Autonics E40H8-3600-3-N-24 delivers exceptional precision with a resolution of 3600 pulses per revolution (P/R), making it suitable for advanced automation systems requiring ultra-accurate feedback. It is designed with a shaft inner diameter of Γ8mm and supports a maximum revolution speed of 5000rpm, allowing integration with high-speed rotary shafts. The encoder uses an NPN open collector control output, compatible with most standard industrial controllers and PLCs. It operates efficiently on a 12β24VDC Β±5% power supply and maintains signal consistency even at a 300kHz response frequency. Built for reliability, it features a radial cable type connection and comes with a sturdy bracket for easy mounting. Its IP50 protection structure ensures resistance to dust under standard factory conditions, and it performs consistently in ambient temperatures from -10Β°C to 70Β°C, with up to 85% RH humidity tolerance. Weighing just 120g, the encoder is compact yet robust enough for heavy-duty applications.
Part of the trusted E40H8 series, the E40H8-3600-3-N-24 is chosen by engineers and system integrators for its balance of performance, durability, and signal clarity. Its starting torque of 50gf.cm ensures smooth rotation and minimal resistance, reducing mechanical strain during startup. Whether you're upgrading older equipment or building precision machinery from scratch, this encoder provides consistent and noise-free incremental signals. Backed by Autonics' global quality standards, it's a go-to choice for industries prioritizing long-term performance and minimal maintenance.
The Autonics 40 mm Incremental Rotary Encoder is widely used in applications that demand high-resolution motion detection, such as CNC machines, robotic arms, inspection equipment, and indexing conveyors. In Indian factories, maintenance engineers trust it for capturing exact shaft position, while automation students and junior engineers use it in labs to understand pulse generation and encoder-to-PLC integration. The 3600P/R resolution ensures refined signal output even for micro-step positioning and speed adjustments. If your process involves precision, consistency, and reliable NPN-based output, the E40H8-3600-3-N-24 delivers on every count.
