Before procurement teams confirm E6H-CWZ3E-500P-R-0-5M, they typically review Omron SMPS 24V 10A, Baumer Encoder and Omron Sensors to double-check performance ratings, stock availability, and supplier credibility carefully.
Omron E6H-CWZ3E 500P/R 0.5M Rotary Encoder
The Omron E6H-CWZ3E 500P/R 0.5M Rotary Encoder is an Incremental Hollow-shaft type model offering a 500 P/R resolution for precise position and speed control in automation systems. It supports A/B/Z phase, Voltage output configuration and includes a Pre-wired model, 0.5 m Cable length connection for quick setup and stable performance. The compact 40 mm dia. housing provides mechanical rigidity and accurate shaft coupling, while operating on 5 to 12 VDC power supply voltage to ensure consistent incremental signal output. Engineered for long service life and high reliability, it delivers dependable feedback in industrial motion control and machinery positioning applications. Manufactured by Omron, part of the Omron Rotary Encoders family, available under the Omron E6H-C Series.

The Omron E6H-CWZ3E 500P/R 0.5M is part of the Rotary Encoder range and is typically evaluated along with other Omron rotary encoders during panel design and motion control planning. Engineers compare related models such as Omron E6H-CWZ3X 360P/R 0.5M (Incremental Hollow-shaft, 360 P/R resolution, A, -A, B, -B, Z and -Z, Line driver output, 0.5 m Cable length), Omron E6H-CWZ3X 500P/R 0.5M (Incremental Hollow-shaft, 500 P/R resolution, A, -A, B, -B, Z and -Z, Line driver output, 0.5 m Cable length), and Omron E6H-CWZ3X 1024P/R 0.5M (Incremental Hollow-shaft, 1024 P/R resolution, A, -A, B, -B, Z and -Z, Line driver output, 0.5 m Cable length) to identify the best fit for indexing applications, shaft feedback, conveyor monitoring, and rotational tracking functions. Reviewing shaft type, resolution, output phase coding, control output stage, connector format, and cable arrangement helps ensure proper alignment with PLC high-speed inputs and mechanical coupling components. These compatible Omron encoder variants enable consistent wiring layouts, predictable pulse behaviour, connector alignment, and uniform signal performance across automation equipment. The E6H-CWZ3E 500P/R 0.5M integrates cleanly into modern industrial systems that require accurate, stable, and long-life rotary feedback devices, and is well suited for applications where a dependable Omron Encoders ensures reliable operation in demanding environments.
