Autonics

An Autonics encoder is ordered entirely by its model string, so E40S6-2500-6-L-5 is a full specification and not just a name. Autonics, founded in 1977 and based in Busan, South Korea, makes sensors, encoders, controllers, counters and timers for machine automation. Seven Star LLC lists the Autonics E40S6-2500-6-L-5 incremental rotary encoder and supplies Autonics sensors and control devices in Oman and the GCC.

Reading the Autonics E40S encoder code

E40S is the 40 mm diameter shaft-type incremental encoder, and the 6 that follows is the 6 mm shaft. 2500 is the resolution in pulses per revolution. The next 6 means six output signals: A, B and Z with their inverted signals. L is a line driver output and the final 5 is a 5 V DC supply. The same 40 mm body is made in hollow shaft form as the E40H and E40HB series.

Where Autonics encoders are used

Servo and spindle feedback, conveyor length measurement, packaging and printing machines.

Ordering Autonics encoders: what we need

Send the complete model string from the label. If it is worn off, give the body and shaft diameter, pulses per revolution, output type, supply voltage and cable or connector style.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I read the Autonics encoder model E40S6-2500-6-L-5?
E40S is a 40 mm shaft-type incremental encoder, 6 is the shaft diameter in mm and 2500 is pulses per revolution. The following 6 indicates A, B and Z phases with their inverted signals, L is a line driver output and 5 is the 5 V DC supply. Every block has to match the encoder you are replacing.
Can I replace a line driver encoder with a totem pole or open collector version?
Not without checking the receiving device. A line driver encoder sends differential signal pairs to a matching receiver, common on servo drives and counter cards over long cables. Totem pole and open collector versions give single-ended signals at the supply voltage. Check the input specification of your drive or counter and order the same output code as before.
What is the difference between the Autonics E40S and E40H encoders?
Both are 40 mm incremental encoders. The E40S has a solid shaft and is joined to the machine shaft with a flexible coupling. The E40H has a hollow shaft and slides over the machine shaft, which saves length. Shaft or bore diameter is part of the model string, so measure it before ordering.
Is Seven Star LLC a distributor of Autonics?
No. Seven Star LLC is an independent industrial supplier based in Muscat, not a distributor or agent of Autonics. We source Autonics encoders, sensors and controllers through commercial channels, check the model or order code against the manufacturer's documentation, and provide the manufacturer's datasheet and the certificates the manufacturer issues with the order on request.
