Incremental Encoders output a pulse string according to the rotational displacement of an axis. The number of rotations can be detected by counting the number of pulses.

• E6A2-C

  Compact Encoder with External Diameter of 25 mm

• E6B2-C

  General-purpose Encoder with External Diameter of 40 mm

• E6C2-C

  General-purpose Encoder with External Diameter of 50 mm

• E6C3-C

  Rugged Rotary Encoder

• E6D-C

  High-resolution Encoder

• E6F-C

  Rugged Rotary Encoder

• E6H-C

  Hollow-shaft Encoder

Absolute Encoders output the rotational angle using an absolute code. The rotational position can be detected by reading the code. This eliminates the need to return to the origin at startup.

• E6CP-A

  General-purpose Absolute Encoder with External Diameter of 50 mm

• E6C3-A

  Rugged Rotary Encoder

• E6F-A

  Rugged Rotary Encoder

A Direction Discrimination Unit accepts phase difference signal from the Encoder to detect the direction of rotation. Either voltage or open-collector outputs can be connected.

• E63-WF

  Detects the Rotary Encoder Direction
