The Omron E6A2-CS3C 300P/R 0.5M Rotary Encoder is an incremental shaft encoder configured for compact rotational sensing applications in industrial equipment. It generates 300 P/R through a Phase A NPN output, providing pulse information that compatible control devices can use to monitor rotation or speed. A 25 mm diameter housing gives the encoder a compact mechanical footprint, while the 0.5 m pre-wired cable supports short-distance connection to associated control equipment. The encoder operates from a 5 to 12 VDC supply. Compared with the 100 P/R configuration in the same family, this model provides a higher pulse count per shaft revolution. The E6A2-CS3C 300P/R sits within the E6A2-C Series. It also belongs to the 300 P/R encoder range associated with Omron industrial sensing equipment.
