C50 Optical incremental encoder, an incremental position encoder for industrial automation.

C50mm Optical incremental encoder

The 50mm optical incremental encoder delivers accurate speed and position feedback for electric motors, elevators, and industrial automation systems. Designed with a compact through-hollow shaft configuration, it provides reliable motor feedback while fitting easily into space-constrained applications.

Its optical sensing technology delivers high-precision feedback with resolutions of up to 8,192 pulses per revolution (PPR). As a result, the encoder ensures smooth speed regulation, accurate positioning, and dependable closed-loop control in demanding motion control systems.

The encoder features a through-hollow shaft that accommodates shafts up to 10 mm in diameter, making installation fast and straightforward. In addition, it supports Push-Pull, Line Driver, and Universal output circuits, allowing seamless integration with servo drives, motor controllers, PLCs, and industrial automation equipment.

Built for continuous operation, the encoder operates across an extended temperature range and features IP65 protection against dust and water ingress. Furthermore, it supports shaft speeds of up to 6,000 rpm, making it an excellent choice for electric motors and elevator applications operating in challenging environments.
