Your EPC encoder is designed to produce a clean, stable, and reliable signal in a variety of operating conditions. To ensure that your encoder signal reaches its intended destination – be it a counter, PLC or controller – use genuine Accu-Coder® cables and connectors. Our shielded cable and mating connectors have been tested to meet stringent standards for quality and performance. All cable assemblies are assembled in our in-house cable department in accordance with industry best practices.
EPC cable and mating connector assemblies (6-pin, 7-pin, 10-pin, and 12-pin) can be ordered to your specified length and with the proper Accu-Coder® pin-out. Also, both encoder cable and mating connectors can be ordered separately. Our 5-pin and 8-pin M12 cordsets are available in a variety of lengths. If you don’t see the length you need, contact Customer Service as other options may be available.
To order a pre-wired cable and connector assembly, indicate the connector style, cable length and output configuration. Refer to 3xx Incremental Encoder Cable Assemblies (PDF) and 4xx Twisted Pair Cable Assemblies (PDF) for cable assembly details.
Specify one choice in each column to create part number. Contact Customer Service to order.
