Instruction manual
Note 1. An inrush current of approx. 9 A flows for approx. 0.1 ms right after the E6C3 is turned on.
2. The line driver output of the E6C3 is used for data transmission circuitry conforming to RS-422A and ensures long-distance transmission
over twisted-pair cable, the quality of which is equivalent to AM26LS31.
3. The maximum electrical response revolution is determined by the resolution and maximum response frequency as follows:
Maximum electrical response frequency (rpm) = Maximum response frequency/resolution × 60
This means that the E6C3 will not operate electrically if its revolution exceeds the maximum electrical response revolution.
4. JEM1030: applicable since 1991.

5. Complementary Output:
The complementary output has two output transistors (NPN and PNP) as shown below. These two output transistors alternately turn ON
and OFF depending on the "H" or "L" output signal. When using them, pull up to the positive power or pull down to 0 V. The complementary
output allows flow-in or flow-out of the output current and thus the rising and falling speeds of signals are fast. This allows a long cable
distance. They can be connected to open-collector input devices (NPN, PNP).

2. The maximum electrical response revolution is determined
by the resolution and maximum response frequency as follows:
Maximum electrical response frequency (rpm) = Maximum
response frequency/resolution × 60
This means that the E6C3 will not operate electrically if its
revolution exceeds the maximum electrical response revolution.
3. With the E6C3-AN1E and E6C3-AN2E models, the output
code can be increased in the clockwise direction by connecting the rotational direction designation input (wire color: pink)
to H (Vcc), and the output code can be decreased in the
clockwise direction by connecting the input to L (0 V).
E6C3-AN1E: H=1.5 to 5 V, L=0 to 0.8 V
E6C3-AN2E: H=2.2 to 12 V, L=0 to 1.2 V
With the E6C3-AN1E and E6C3-AN2E models, read the
code at least 10 µs after the LSB (20) code has changed.

Precautions
■ Incremental and Absolute

• When connecting the coupling, stay within the ranges shown
below.
Decentering
tolerance
Safety Precautions
0.15 mm max.
Do not impose voltage exceeding the rated voltage range on the
E6C3, otherwise the E6C3 may be damaged.
Do not wire power lines or high-tension lines along with the power
supply lines of the E6C3 or the E6C3 may be damaged or malfunction.
Declination
tolerance
If the power supply has surge voltage, connect a surge suppressor
between the positive and negative terminals of the power supply to
absorb the surge voltage. Also, in order to protect the E6C3 from
noise, shorten the wires connected to the E6C3 as much as possible.
Unnecessary pulses are output at the time the E6C3 is turned ON or
OFF. After turning ON the E6C3, be sure to wait 0.1 s before turning
ON the peripheral devices connected to the E6C3 and turn OFF the
peripheral devices 0.1 s before turning OFF the E6C3.

Application Precautions
Mounting
● Mounting Precautions
• Be careful not to spray water or oil onto the E6C3.
• The E6C3 consists of high-precision components. Handle with
utmost care and do not drop the E63C, otherwise malfunctioning
may result.
• When the E6C3 is used in reversed operation, pay utmost attention
to the mounting direction of the E6C3 and the directions of increment and decrement rotation.
• When connecting or disconnecting the coupling, do not impose an
excessive bending, pressing, or pulling force on the E6C3.
• When connecting the shaft of the E6C3 with a chain timing belt or
gear, connect the chain timing belt or gear with the shaft via the
bearing and coupling as shown in the following illustration.
Chain sprocket
Bearing
Coupling
• To match phase Z of the E6C3 and the origin of the device to be
connected to the E6C3, conform the phase Z outputs while connecting the device.
• Be careful not to impose an excessive load on the shaft if the shaft
connects to a gear.
• If the E6C3 is mounted with screws, the tightening torque must not
exceed approximately 0.5 N·m.
• If the E6C3 is mounted to a panel, do not pull the cable with more
than a force of 30 N. Do not subject the E6C3 or the shaft to excessive shock.
• If the decentering or declination value exceeds the tolerance, an
excessive load imposed on the shaft may damage or shorten the
life of the E6C3.

• No shock must be given to the shaft or coupling. Therefore, do not
hit the shaft or coupling with a hammer when inserting the shaft
into the coupling.

Do not secure the coupling and shaft with screws at this
stage.
Refer to the following table for the maximum insertion length
of the shaft into the coupling.

Be sure to turn off the Rotary Encoder when connecting

5 Turn on the Rotary Encoder and

Cable Extension
The following graph shows the (theoretical) life expectancy of the
bearing with radial and thrust loads imposed on the bearing.
• The rise time of each output waveform will increase when the cable
is extended. This affects the phase difference characteristics of
phases A and B.

The available length of cable varies with the response frequency
and noise. It is safer to limit the length of cable to 10 m maximum. If
a longer cable of up to 100 m is required, use the line driver output
or complementary output model. (The maximum extension with the
line driver output model is 100 m.)
• The residual output voltage will increase according to the length of
the cable.

Preventing Miscounting
Radial load Wr (N)
If the operation of the E6C3 is stopped near a signal rising or falling
edge, a wrong pulse may be generated, in which case the E6C3 will
miscount. In such a case, use an increment-decrement counter to
prevent miscounting.
Wiring
Connecting
• When extending the cable for Incremental Rotary Encoders, select
the kind of cable with care by taking the response frequency into
consideration because the longer the cable is, the more the residual voltage increases due to the resistance of the cable and the
capacitance between the wires. As a result, the waveform will be
distorted.
We recommend the line driver output type model (E6C3-CWZ3XH)
or the complementary output type model (E6C3-CWZ5GH) if the
cable needs to be extended.
In order to reduce inductive noise, the cable must be as short as
possible, especially when the signal is input to an IC.
• If the power supply has surge voltage, connect a surge suppressor
between the positive and negative terminals of the power supply to
absorb the surge voltage.
• Unnecessary pulses are output at the time the E6C3 is turned ON
or OFF. After turning ON the E6C3, be sure to wait 0.1 s before
turning ON the peripheral devices connected to the E6C3 and turn
OFF the peripheral devices 0.1 s before turning OFF the E6C3.

E6C3 Rotary Encoder (Incremental/Absolute)
Extension of Line Driver Output
• Be sure to use a shielded twisted-pair cable to extend a line driver
cable.
Recommended cable: Tachii Electric Wire Co., TKVVBS4P 02A
• Use an RS-422A Receiver for the receiver side.
• The twisted-pair wires as shown in the following illustration are
suitable for RS-422A signal transmission. Normal mode noise can
be eliminated by twisting the wires because the generated electrical forces on the lines cancel each other.
Twisted-pair
wires
• Be sure the E6C3 is supplied with 5 VDC when a line driver output
is used. There will be an approximately 1-V voltage drop if the
cable length is 100 m.

Use the following formula to obtain the number of counters to be
connected to a single E6C3.
