Easy Encoder Connectivity

March 1, 2006
A new 8-pin M12 eurofast connector was designed specifically to provide quick and easy connectivity for use with Kubler encoders, which are typically used in strenuous factory applications.

The E-WKC 8T-PX3-930-* cordset has three LEDs housed in a translucent molded right-angle connector for indication of channels A, B and Z. Green LEDs indicate channels A and B, while amber is used for the index channel. The LEDs can also be used during machine set-up for home position indication, and provide operational status of the encoder output channels. The E-WKC 8T-PX3-930-* cordset allows the use of 5-30VDC and draws minimal current for proper operation. It is available with nickel-plated brass or stainless steel coupling nuts and provides protection that meets the following standards: UL, CSA, NEMA 1, 3, 4, 6P and IEC 68.
