Industrial rotary encoder for motion control
The Autonics E50S8-500-3-V-24 is an incremental rotary encoder built for position and speed feedback in automation systems. It delivers 500 pulses per revolution through a voltage output stage powered from 12 to 24 VDC. The Ø8 mm shaft and axial cable connection suit panel-mount installations where space is limited.
Sustained operation within rated limits
Continuous rotation up to 5000 rpm is supported with a starting torque no greater than 70 gf·cm. The encoder maintains signal integrity up to a 300 kHz response frequency, so extended high-speed runs stay within specification. An IP50 enclosure protects internal optics from dust ingress during long shifts.
Verify shaft fit and wiring before ordering
Confirm that your coupling or gear matches the Ø8 mm shaft diameter and that the axial cable routing clears surrounding hardware. The unit requires a stable 12 to 24 VDC supply with ripple below 5 percent peak-to-peak. Voltage-output signals must be compatible with your controller input specification.

Questions about this item
How much power does the E50S8-500-3-V-24 draw when running continuously on a 24 V supply?
The encoder operates on 12-24 VDC with a maximum 5% ripple, so at 24 V it stays within that supply window without extra cooling.
What wiring and shaft coupling must I already have to install this axial-cable encoder?
You need an 8 mm shaft coupling and a way to terminate the axial cable leads for your controller's voltage-input channels.
Will the 500 P/R resolution and 300 kHz response work with my older PLC input module?
At 500 pulses per revolution and up to 300 kHz, the output suits legacy PLCs that accept voltage-level quadrature signals at those speeds.
