Product Information

The E58 Series Incremental Rotary Encoders are devices used to measure incremental changes in rotary position. They have a 58 mm diameter and are available in different shaft types, resolutions, and output phases, with options for a totem pole, NPN open collector, voltage output, and line driver control outputs. The unit must be installed on a device panel for use and cannot be used in places with flammable/explosive/corrosive gas, high humidity, direct sunlight, radiant heat, vibration, impact, or salinity. It should also not be used near equipment that generates strong magnetic forces or high-frequency noise and strong alkaline, strong acidic substances. The unit should be used within its rated specifications to avoid fire or product damage.

Product Usage Instructions

Ensure a fail-safe device is installed when using the unit with machinery that may cause serious injury or substantial economic loss.
Do not use the unit in places with flammable/explosive/corrosive gas, high humidity, direct sunlight, radiant heat, vibration, impact, or salinity.
Install the unit on a device panel before use.

Check ‘Connections’ before wiring.
- Failure to follow this instruction may result in fire.
Do not disassemble or modify the unit.
- Failure to follow this instruction may result in fire.

Caution: Failure to follow instructions may result in injury or product damage.

Use the unit within the rated specifications.
- Failure to follow this instruction may result in fire or product damage.
Do not short the load.
- Failure to follow this instruction may result in fire.
Do not use the unit near the place where there is the equipment which generates strong magnetic force or high frequency noise and strong alkaline, strong acidic exists.
- Failure to follow this instruction may result in product damage.

Cautions during Use

Follow instructions in ‘Cautions during Use’.
Otherwise, It may cause unexpected accidents.
5 VDC , 12 – 24 VDC power supply should be insulated and limited voltage / current or Class 2, SELV power supply device.
For using the unit with the equipment which generates noise (switching regulator, inverter, servo motor, etc.), ground the shield wire to the F.G. terminal.
Ground the shield wire to the F.G. terminal.
When supplying power with SMPS, ground the F.G. terminal and connect the noise canceling capacitor between the 0 V and F.G. terminals.
Wire as short as possible and keep away from high voltage lines or power lines, to prevent inductive noise.
For Line driver unit, use the twisted pair wire which is attached seal and use the receiver for RS-422A communication.
Check the wire type and response frequency when extending wire because of distortion of waveform or residual voltage increment etc. by line resistance or capacity between lines.
This unit may be used in the following environments.
- Indoors (in the environment condition rated in ‘Specifications’)
- Altitude max. 2,000 m
- Pollution degree 2
- Installation category II

Cautions during Installation

Install the unit correctly with the usage environment, location, and the designated specifications.
Do not load overweight on the shaft.
Do not put strong impact when insert a coupling into shaft.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in product damage.
When fixing the product or coupling with a wrench, tighten under 0.15 N m.
If the coupling error (parallel misalignment, angular misalignment) between the shaft increases while installation, the life cycle of the coupling and the encoder can be shortened.
Do not apply tensile strength over 30 N to the cable.
