The Autonics E40S6-2500-3-N-24-C Incremental Rotary Encoder delivers precise motion detection with a resolution of 2500 pulses per revolution (P/R), ensuring accurate feedback in automation systems. Its Γ6mm shaft diameter and maximum operating speed of 5000rpm make it suitable for dynamic positioning tasks and high-speed rotary systems. The encoder operates reliably on a 12β24VDC power supply (Β±5% tolerance), and provides stable output through NPN open collector output type with A, B, Z output phases. With a fast response frequency of up to 300kHz, the device is engineered to handle real-time control and high-frequency applications with minimal delay or error.
Built for rugged industrial conditions, the encoder features a radial cable connector for space-efficient wiring and an IP50 protection structure that ensures resistance to dust and limited environmental exposure. It maintains functionality in ambient temperatures ranging from -10Β°C to 70Β°C, and offers a broad storage range down to -25Β°C and up to 85Β°C. The starting torque is rated at a low 40gf.cm, ensuring smooth startup in sensitive applications. It comes with a standard Γ6mm coupling and supports Γ8mm coupling options for versatile mechanical interfacing. Weighing approximately 120g, this compact and efficient device fits easily into most encoder mounting assemblies, enabling flexible design across machine builds and retrofits. Its performance, durability, and compatibility make it a trusted choice across automation setups requiring incremental position detection.
The E40S6-2500-3-N-24-C is widely used in conveyor systems, CNC machinery, motor feedback control, packaging lines, robotics, and textile automation. For junior engineers, its plug-and-play wiring and consistent output make installation simple. For senior maintenance engineers, the high resolution and stable performance offer precision for aligning servo systems or monitoring rotary motion with minimal error. Its fast response and compact build make it ideal for dynamic, real-time applications where space and accuracy both matter. Engineering colleges and technical training institutes also use this model in motion control labs to demonstrate key concepts like phase output, encoder resolution, and signal interpretation.
