Product Description:

The 1400664-0020 is a finished cordset manufactured by Danaher within the Dynapar Encoder Cables series. Intended for incremental or absolute encoder installations, the product links a rotating sensor to its drive or PLC interface, carrying power and position data while withstanding the vibration and electrical noise typical of automated machinery. By combining a shielded multicore cable with molded terminations, it simplifies routing through cable trays and cabinets and reduces assembly time on the plant floor. The design follows Dynapar pinouts, so encoders, junction boxes, and controllers can be connected without field crimping or soldering.

Its length of 20 ft provides enough reach for most motor-mounted encoders while keeping signal attenuation minimal. The molded circular plug has a 6-pin layout that follows the Dynapar standard. Paired with a 6-pin line driver inside the encoder, it supports balanced A, B, and Z channels. Because the lines carry differential square waves, common-mode interference picked up along machine frames is canceled at the receiver. Power, index, and quadrature conductors use tinned copper strands sized at 22 AWG and 24 AWG, balancing limited voltage drop with the flexibility needed for tight bend radii around servo motors and linear stages.

On the sensing end, an MS female connector mates directly with the encoder housing, while the controller end has flying leads that allow individual cores to be connected to screw terminals or terminal blocks without adapters. An internal fan-out assigns 6 leads to the differential pairs and supply rails, keeping the color coding consistent with Dynapar documentation. The unit is supplied as a single cable assembly, with integrated strain relief and shielding. The controlled conductor twist helps preserve signal integrity and reduces the chance of wiring errors in servo loops.
