Product Description:

The HC62536000003 is an incremental rotary encoder manufactured by Danaher and supplied under the Dynapar Encoders series. It attaches to a machine shaft and translates mechanical rotation into electrical pulses, providing real-time position and velocity feedback for drives, PLCs, and servo controllers in industrial automation lines. The device outputs two phased channels and an index pulse, allowing direction sensing and accurate homing routines for synchronized motion applications.

The encoder delivers a resolution of 3600 PPR, so each full revolution is divided into 3600 distinct pulses that a controller can use for fine motion interpolation. High-speed monitoring is supported by a 250 kHz frequency response and signal rise or fall times under 1 µs, allowing the pulses to remain distinct at elevated line rates. The shaft may spin at up to 10000 rpm without signal degradation. Starting torque is only 2.5 oz-in because the code wheel has a moment of inertia of 2.83 × 10⁻⁴ oz-in-s². The NEMA 4 / IP66 enclosure seals the housing against dust and directed water, while its internal components withstand mechanical shocks of up to 50 G. Quadrature phasing remains within 90° ±25° electrical, and channel symmetry stays at 180° ±25° electrical for reliable duty-cycle detection.

For mounting, the stainless-steel shaft tolerates an axial load of 30 lb and a radial load of 40 lb, allowing direct coupling to belts or gear trains without additional bearing blocks. Continuous electronics draw remains below 80 mA, so the encoder can be powered from common 5–26 VDC sensor rails without special power conditioning. The device withstands 20 G of vibration, allowing operation on mobile or high-cycle machinery. Its load capacity supports coupling arrangements in compact servo motors, unwinders, and indexing tables, while the low current draw reduces the demand placed on shared sensor power supplies.
