Working Principle The EC11 rotary encoder captures rotation angle and speed via the internal rotary encoder. When the shaft rotates, the photoelectric sensor detects the change in the light signal, generates a pulse signal, transmits it to the external circuit for processing, determining rotation angle and speed
Wide applications: rotary encoders are used in automotive electronics, e.g. navigation buttons and volume controls; in the smart home, e.g. e.g. in thermostats, lighting controllers; in industrial automation and in precision devices
Product size: shaft diameter: 6 mm (0.24 inch); wavelength: 20 mm (0.79 inch); built-in pressure switch (pressure operation). Button Cap: 17mm x 15mm, Hole Diameter: 6mm
Parameters: Setting Mode: 360 Degree Rotation; Position Count: 20; Pulse Count: 20; Pin Quantity: 5; Lifespan: 80,000 Switching Operations; Maximum Rated Current and Voltage: 10mA/5V DC
Note: Do not store the products in places with high temperature, high humidity and corrosive gases. Do not touch the product with water, as this may lead to abnormal output signals
