Baumer Electric BDW 06.05A4096-C1-9 Rotary Encoder

Baumer Electric BDW 06.05A4096-C1-9 Rotary Encoder is a compact device in Baumer’s BDW line that provides rotational position feedback for automation and motion-control systems. It operates from a DC supply of 1–30 V and uses a 10 mm diameter shaft for coupling to motor outputs, gear reducers, or other drive components. The BDW 06.05A4096-C1-9 variant is identified by the N921 designation within the BDW family. This encoder’s small form factor supports installation in tight spaces and aligns with Baumer’s mounting and interface standards for BDW devices, helping integrators match signal type, connector, and mechanical footprint to their control system. For engineers evaluating this part, key considerations include ensuring the supply voltage falls within 1–30 V DC, confirming the shaft diameter is compatible with the coupling, and verifying the mounting pattern and connector alignment follow the BDW catalog specifications to achieve proper fit and operation. Its compact form factor supports mounting in space-limited installations alongside other drive electronics.
