Product Description:
The 108241-0040 is a preterminated signal cable supplied by Danaher within the Dynapar Encoder Cables series. This component serves as a dedicated harness between a Dynapar incremental encoder and its drive or PLC interface, preserving pulse fidelity over short machine runs. By bundling power, A/B quadrature, and marker conductors in a single jacket, the product simplifies installation and provides predictable impedance for high-speed position feedback loops. It is suitable for motion-control applications on assembly lines, conveyors, and packaging machines where reliable encoder signals are required.
The product is a cable assembly with factory-installed terminations, so no on-site crimping is required. On the encoder side, a 6-pin MS female connector mates directly with compatible size-10 receptacles, and its keyed interface helps prevent an incorrect connection. The harness contains 6 leads, with dedicated conductors for the supply voltage, quadrature channels, and marker signal. Signal current travels through tinned copper cores, with 22 AWG conductors used for power and 24 AWG conductors used for logic signals. This combination limits voltage drop in the power conductors while retaining the flexibility needed for routing through machinery. The preterminated encoder connection also reduces the amount of field wiring needed at the feedback device.
At the controller end, the jacket terminates in flying leads, allowing each conductor to connect directly to screw terminals or spring clamps without a proprietary plug. The encoder channels use a single-ended wiring scheme in which the A and B phases share a common reference, making the cable suitable for legacy drive cards that monitor signal transitions against a grounded return. The cable also carries an index channel for transmitting the zero-marker signal used during automatic homing after power-up. Its output style organizes the available power and feedback conductors for connection to the controller interface. The separate leads at the controller end provide flexibility when terminal assignments differ among compatible drives and PLC input modules.
