The Autonics E40S6-2500-6-L-5-C is a compact 40 mm Incremental Rotary Encoder engineered for precision in demanding industrial settings. It features a shaft outer diameter of Γ6mm and delivers high-resolution output with 2500 pulses per revolution (P/R), making it suitable for applications that require fine-grain position control. Built with a Line Driver control output for enhanced noise immunity, this encoder operates on a regulated 5VDC Β±5% power supply. It supports a maximum response frequency of 300kHz and a top speed of 5000rpm, enabling stable signal generation even at high rotation speeds. Integration is simple thanks to its radial cable connector type, and the encoder includes a standard Γ6mm coupling, with Γ8mm options sold separately.
Housed in an IP50-rated casing, the E40S6-2500-6-L-5-C performs reliably in ambient conditions ranging from -10 to 70β, with extended storage support down to -25β. The device withstands humidity levels up to 85% RH during operation, ensuring consistent performance in typical industrial environments. It outputs three essential signal phasesβA, B, and Zβalong with their respective complementary signals for precise direction and indexing control. With a low starting torque of 0.00392 NΒ·m and a lightweight design of 120g, it reduces mechanical load while maintaining structural integrity in fast-moving systems.
