Mitsubishi Electric Corporation OSA18-100 System Encoder

Mitsubishi Electric Corporation’s OSA18-100 System Encoder is a rotary encoder that delivers high‑resolution A/B incremental feedback with a Z index option for select models, designed to provide precise motion feedback to servo and automation systems. It offers 100 pulses per revolution (PPR), uses a differential line-driver output compatible with Mitsubishi servo drives, and mounts by a shaft, typically powered from 5 VDC supplied by the drive. The IP50‑rated enclosure supports operating temperatures from −10°C to 60°C (storage −20°C to 70°C), making it well suited for CNC machining centers, robotics, automated assembly lines, conveyors, material handling equipment, and packaging machinery where accurate position and speed feedback are essential.
