Product Overview

The Omron E6C2-CWZ5B 500PR 2M is a 50 mm incremental rotary encoder from the E6C2-C general-purpose series It is manufactured by Omron Corporation. Hengyixin Automation ships this sensor from our Xiamen warehouse with a 30-day DOA return window and a datasheet PDF included in the box.

The encoder delivers 500 pulses per revolution across three output phases (A, B, Z). A and B are quadrature with 90 degree phase shift; Z is the once-per-turn index pulse.

For a smaller 40 mm body at 2000 P/R with NPN output, pick the E6B2-CWZ6C 2000P-R. Key specs: Resolution 500 pulses per revolution; Output Phases A, B, Z; 90 deg +/-45 deg phase difference; Output Type PNP open collector, 30 VDC max, 35 mA source; Supply Voltage 12 to 24 VDC (-10% to +15%), ripple 5% max; Current Consumption 100 mA max; Maximum Response Frequency 100 kHz; Shaft / Speed 6 mm solid shaft; 6000 r/min max; 10 mN.m starting torque; Protection / Connection IP64; pre-wired 2 m PVC cable; zinc-alloy case.

Key Features

  • E6C2-C 50 mm incremental rotary encoder with 500 P/R resolution
  • Three-phase output (A, B, Z) with 90 degree quadrature on A and B
  • PNP open-collector output 30 VDC max, 12 to 24 VDC supply, 100 kHz response
  • 6 mm solid shaft, 6000 r/min max, IP64 zinc-alloy case, 2 m pre-wired cable
  • SKU: E6C2-CWZ5B 500PR 2M
  • Series: Omron E6C2-C-series 50 mm incremental rotary encoder
  • Voltage: 12 TO 24 VDC

Best-Fit Applications

  • Conveyor length feedback on a cut-to-length line at 2 mm resolution per count per 1 m wheel
  • Spindle position feedback on a small CNC where the 6 mm shaft pairs with an E69-C06B coupling
  • Spare drop-in for an existing E6C2 cell with the same 12-24 VDC PNP field wiring

Buying Checklist

  • Pick the E6C2-CWZ5B 500PR 2M for a 50 mm incremental encoder at 500 P/R with PNP open-collector output.
  • Pick the E6C2-CWZ1X 500P/R 2M instead when the cabinet needs a 5 VDC line-driver output for noise immunity on long cable runs.
  • Pick the E6B2-CWZ6C 2000P-R instead when the cabinet needs a smaller 40 mm body at 2000 P/R with NPN output.

FAQ for E6C2-CWZ5B 500PR 2M

How is the E6C2-CWZ5B 500PR 2M wired?
The pre-wired cable has five conductors: red is 12 to 24 VDC supply, black is 0 V, and the three output wires are A (white), B (green) and Z (yellow). Run the supply and 0 V to a 24 VDC PLC source and the A/B/Z outputs to a CJ2M or CP1L high-speed counter.
What is the maximum cable length for the E6C2-CWZ5B?
Up to 100 m on a shielded twisted-pair cable when the load resistance on each output is at least 1 k ohm. For the cleanest signal at long distances, switch to the line-driver E6C2-CWZ1X instead.
Is the E6C2-CWZ5B 500PR 2M waterproof?
No. The zinc-alloy case is IP64, dust-tight and splash-proof but not waterproof. For wash-down or outdoor use, pick the E6F-C or E6CP-AG5C series, which are IP65.
