Autonics E50S8-600-3-T-1 Rotary Encoder
Autonics E50S8-600-3-T-1 Incremental Rotary Encoder (50 mm, Solid Shaft, 600 PPR)
Autonics E50S8-600-3-T-1 is a 50 mm solid-shaft incremental rotary encoder with 600 PPR resolution and A, B, Z totem-pole output, ideal for accurate speed and position feedback in industrial automation systems.
The Autonics E50S8-600-3-T-1 is a 50 mm diameter incremental rotary encoder featuring a solid Ø 8 mm shaft and 600 pulses per revolution (PPR). It provides A, B, and Z phase outputs via a totem-pole output circuit, ensuring fast response and compatibility with PLCs, counters, and motion controllers.
This model offers a balanced resolution for applications that require accurate speed and position monitoring without ultra-high pulse counts, making it suitable for general industrial automation.
