Omron E6H-CWZ6C 1000P/R 0.5M Rotary Encoder
The Omron E6H-CWZ6C 1000P/R 0.5M Rotary Encoder is an incremental hollow-shaft encoder configured to provide rotational feedback through an open-collector output interface. It generates 1000 P/R with A/B/Z open-collector outputs, supplying compatible control equipment with pulse signals for shaft movement, direction, and reference-position monitoring. The encoder operates across a 5 to 24 VDC supply range and incorporates a compact 40 mm diameter housing with a 0.5 m pre-wired cable. Its open-collector output differentiates this configuration from the line-driver E6H-C variants. The E6H-CWZ6C 1000P/R belongs to the E6H-C Series. It sits within the 1000 P/R hollow-shaft encoder range associated with Omron rotational sensing products.
