Here is a breakdown of the model number:

E40S6: This indicates the series of the rotary encoder.

600: This represents the number of pulses per revolution. In this case, it indicates that the encoder has 600 pulses per revolution.

3: This indicates the number of output channels. A value of 3 typically means that the encoder provides A, B, and Z (index) channels.

T: This indicates the type of output. The "T" typically stands for "Totem pole" output, which is a type of digital output signal.

24: This represents the operating voltage of the encoder. In this case, it indicates that the encoder operates on a 24 VDC power supply.

The Autonics E40S6-600-3-T-24 is commonly used in various industrial applications where rotational position sensing is required. It provides reliable and accurate position feedback for rotational movements.
