D22116200 PE 50 C6 Rotary Encoder 250 Puls/Rev 4.5-5.25VDC 9.45mm Shaft

D22116200 PE 50 C6 Rotary Encoder 250 Puls/Rev 4.5-5.25VDC 9.45mm Shaft

The D22116200 is a compact incremental rotary encoder designated as model PE 50 C6, manufactured in Germany. It generates 250 pulses per revolution and operates on a low-voltage 4.5–5.25 VDC supply, making it suited for use with servo motors and precision motion control systems. The encoder features a cylindrical yellow housing with a short shaft stub on top and outputs its signal through a multi-pin circular connector with an attached cable.

Applications

Incremental rotary encoders like the PE 50 C6 are standard position and speed feedback devices used in servo motor control systems, CNC machinery, robotics, and general industrial automation. They work by generating a defined number of electrical pulses per shaft revolution — in this case 250 — which a controller or drive reads to calculate position, velocity, or direction. This type of compact, low-voltage encoder is commonly paired with small-to-medium servo motors in European-built industrial machinery from the 1990s onward, where 5 VDC logic-level encoders became a widespread standard. The 9.45 mm shaft diameter and 52.4 mm housing diameter are typical of mid-range servo feedback encoders used on machine tool axes, conveyor drives, and packaging equipment. Buyers sourcing a replacement for a servo motor application should verify shaft diameter, pulses-per-revolution, and connector pinout against their drive or controller specifications.
