Autonics E50S8-1024-6-L-5 Rotary Encoder
Autonics E50S8-1024-6-L-5 Incremental Rotary Encoder (50 mm, Solid Shaft, Line Driver, 1024 PPR)
Autonics E50S8-1024-6-L-5 is a 50 mm solid-shaft incremental rotary encoder with 1024 PPR resolution and line driver (differential) output, designed for high-speed, long-distance, and noise-resistant industrial motion control applications.
The Autonics E50S8-1024-6-L-5 is a 50 mm diameter incremental rotary encoder featuring a solid Ø 8 mm shaft and 1024 pulses per revolution. It provides A, A̅, B, B̅, Z, and Z̅ differential outputs (line driver), enabling reliable signal transmission over long cable distances and in electrically noisy industrial environments.
Powered by 5 V DC, this encoder is ideal for CNC machines, servo systems, high-speed conveyors, and precision automation equipment.
