VXT-E38S06-0360-NPN Rotary Encoder – 38mm, 6mm Shaft, 360 PPR, NPN Output
One pulse per degree: easy length and angle measurement. Compact 38 mm body, NPN A/B outputs, 8–26 V DC.
The VXT-E38S06-0360-NPN is a 38 mm incremental rotary encoder with a ø6 mm solid shaft and a resolution of 360 pulses per revolution. NPN open-collector outputs on two channels (A and B in quadrature), powered from a wide 8–26 V DC supply, connect directly to PLC high-speed counter inputs configured for NPN sensors. A 2 m shielded radial cable, robust housing and ball-bearing shaft support make it well suited to continuous duty on industrial machines.
