Product Description:

The cable identified as 108594-0050 is supplied by Danaher under the Dynapar Encoder Cables series. It serves as the interface between a rotary encoder and downstream motion hardware. The assembly carries incremental or absolute position signals while keeping conductor assignments consistent with Dynapar pinouts for industrial automation loops. This arrangement supports reliable communication between the encoder and connected motion-control equipment in machinery that depends on accurate position feedback.

The encoder end terminates in a six-pin female MS connector, so it mates directly with standard military-style circular receptacles found on many encoders. At the opposite end, the jacket opens into flying leads that can connect to screw terminals, IDC blocks, or solder lugs without additional adapters. Signal return and supply conductors use 22 AWG and 24 AWG wires, providing adequate current capacity while keeping the overall bundle flexible. A braided shield surrounds the signal pairs and diverts electromagnetic interference to the chassis ground. The conductor assignments follow a single-ended configuration, meaning each channel is referenced to a common conductor rather than a complementary differential line. This wiring arrangement is suitable for compatible encoder inputs that accept individual channel signals referenced to a shared return. The mating half of the circular connector is included with the cable, allowing the assembly to connect to the corresponding receptacle without a separately sourced plug.

The assembly tolerates ambient temperatures up to +105 °C without jacket deformation and remains pliable down to -20 °C. This operating range permits use near warm motor housings and in unheated equipment bays where cable flexibility must be maintained. Inside the sheath are five leads for typical encoder channels, including A, B, Z, supply, and common connections. Each conductor has stripped and tinned tips, allowing the wires to be inserted into suitable terminal blocks without additional end preparation. Tinning helps keep the exposed strands together during termination and reduces the chance of loose strands contacting adjacent terminals. The opened cable end also provides enough separation for orderly routing within a motion-control panel or junction enclosure.
