Autonics E40S6-600-3-T-24 Rotary Encoder
Autonics E40S6-600-3-T-24 Incremental Rotary Encoder (40 mm, Solid Shaft, 600 PPR)
Autonics E40S6-600-3-T-24 is a 40 mm solid-shaft incremental rotary encoder with 600 PPR resolution and A, B, and Z totem-pole output, suitable for accurate speed and position feedback in industrial automation systems.
The Autonics E40S6-600-3-T-24 is a 40 mm diameter incremental rotary encoder with a solid shaft (Ø 6 mm) and 600 pulses per revolution (PPR). It provides A, B, and Z phase outputs using a totem-pole output circuit, ensuring fast switching and broad compatibility with PLCs, counters, and motion controllers.
Operating on 12–24 V DC, this encoder is ideal for applications requiring medium-high resolution feedback with stable and reliable performance in industrial environments.
