After more than 20 years on the market, Lika Electronic has completely redesigned their best-selling incremental encoder, the C50, and will launch the next generation model in April. The new C50 features an updated die-cast aluminum enclosure with four fixing points for easier installation of various fixing plates. It maintains the same compact footprint as the previous model for backward compatibility. The C50 provides high resolution encoding up to 8192 pulses per revolution and operates from -40°C to +100°C.

C50 Next Generation
After 20-plus years of successful presence on the market, C50 has been completely redesigned.
The next generation of the best selling encoder from Lika Electronic will be available from next
April!
Lika Electronic redesigns and updates the most popular
incremental encoder and launches the next genera-
tion of C50 adding a handful of new features at
the same competitive price.
The die-cast aluminium enclosure has been fully revi-
sed to meet wider requirements. Four fixing points al-
low more ease and further possibilities of installing a
variety of fixing plates and even special or customized
plates. Furthermore they are provided on both shaft si-
des of the enclosure to better fit each application.
The new model has the same footprint as the old mo-
del to preserve the backward compatibility and the very
compact size: the enclosure diameter is 52 mm (2.05”)
and the overall profile is 32.3 mm (1.27“).
The through hollow shaft ranges between 6 (0.24") and
10 mm (0.39") bore diameters.
The degree of protection is IP65 and the operating
temperature is extended to -40°C ÷ +100°C (-40°F ÷
+212°F).
C50 provides up to 8192 pulses per revolution and AB0
plus inverted square wave signals through Universal,
Push-Pull and Line Driver output circuits.
C50 is ideal for motor feedback operations and instal-
lation in constricted space.
