Product Overview

The Omron E6B2-CWZ6C is a φ40mm incremental rotary encoder from the popular E6B2-C series, designed for reliable speed and position feedback in industrial automation. This encoder features NPN open collector output with A/B/Z phases for direction detection and origin positioning. Operating on DC5-24V supply voltage, it offers excellent compatibility with PLCs and motion controllers. The E6B2-CWZ6C provides 600 pulses per revolution (PPR) resolution, suitable for general-purpose motor feedback, conveyor speed monitoring, and positioning applications. With maximum response frequency of 100kHz and maximum rotational speed of 6000rpm, this encoder handles demanding industrial applications. The robust construction includes load short-circuit protection and output reverse polarity protection circuits. Standard cable length is 0.5m with optional 2m versions available.

FAQ for E6B2-CWZ6C

What resolutions are available in the E6B2-CWZ6C series?
The E6B2-CWZ6C series offers 13 resolution options from 100 to 2000 PPR: 100, 200, 300, 360, 400, 500, 600, 1000, 1024, 1200, 1500, 1800, and 2000 PPR. Select the model suffix accordingly (e.g., E6B2-CWZ6C 1000P/R for 1000 PPR).
How do I wire the E6B2-CWZ6C to a PLC high-speed counter?
Connect brown wire to DC+ (5-24V), blue wire to DC- (0V), black wire to counter input (A phase), white wire to counter input (B phase), and orange wire to counter input (Z phase). Use pull-up resistors (2-10kΩ) if required by your PLC input circuit. Keep encoder cables separated from power cables to prevent electrical noise interference.
What is the maximum cable length for this encoder?
The standard cable is 0.5m. For longer distances up to 30m, use the 2m cable version (E6B2-CWZ6C-XXX 2M) or install a line driver (E69-DF5) to prevent signal degradation. Always use shielded cables and keep encoder wiring away from VFD cables and power lines to reduce electrical noise.
Can this encoder be used for both speed and position feedback?
Yes. The A/B quadrature phases provide direction and position information through up/down counting, while the Z phase provides one pulse per revolution for homing and origin positioning. This makes it suitable for servo motor feedback, conveyor speed monitoring, and CNC axis positioning applications.
