E500500C00B
The Sanyo Denki E500500C00B encoder represents the next evolution in the High Accuracy Absolute Encoders series, delivering high-precision position feedback for demanding industrial automation tasks. Built by Sanyo Denki, this absolute encoder combines absolute and incremental feedback in a single package, leveraging dual output channels with a 90° phase shift for versatile integration. The unit provides a combined resolution of 33-bit resolution, ensuring sub-micron positional accuracy over full rotations. Its broad input capability accepts 200-480 VAC, making it compatible with diverse power infrastructures. The robust design meets IP65 protection class requirements, safeguarding internal components against dust and water ingress.
Technical specifications of the E500500C00B are engineered for maximum flexibility and reliability. It supports two supply voltage domains—+5 VDC and a universal +11 to +27 VDC range—enabling direct connection to common control systems. The encoder operates at standard industrial frequencies of 50/60 Hz and achieves 98% efficiency under nominal load conditions. Rated for 5 kVA rated power, it maintains a low 4 W power dissipation, reducing thermal stress and cooling requirements. Output stages can be configured as Push-Pull, Open Collector, or Open Emitter, each handling up to 35 V max output voltage and delivering a 100 mA max output current with built-in short circuit protection. The unit also carries a CE Approved certification and is covered under a One-year warranty, with storage tolerances adhering to standard industrial conditions.
Operationally, the E500500C00B excels in precision motion control, delivering consistent absolute positioning without the need for homing routines. Dual channel outputs at 90° phase shift ensure both direction sensing and high-resolution incremental signals, simplifying integration with high-speed counters or servo drives. The encoder’s low power draw and efficient thermal profile extend service life, while embedded short circuit protection enhances system safety by isolating faults swiftly. Its heavy-duty electrical construction withstands harsh industrial environments, enabling continuous operation at full load. Maintenance requirements are minimized, as the absolute position is retained through power cycles and no periodic recalibration is necessary.
System integration is straightforward with standardized interface options and broad voltage acceptance, making the E500500C00B ideal for robotics, automated assembly machines, and linear positioning systems. Engineers benefit from flexible output configurations that match a wide array of input circuits and drive electronics. The combination of high resolution, robust protection, and dual-mode feedback capacity positions this encoder as the preferred choice for applications requiring real-time monitoring, positional accuracy, and uninterrupted operation in industrial automation.
