Frequently Asked Questions - RC6003 IFM

What is the supply voltage of the RC6003?
The encoder is available in two versions: 5 V TTL or 10...30 V HTL. Check the housing label for the exact version.
How to wire the RC6003?
The standard wiring is indicated on the housing cover. Use a 13-wire cable or a 5-pin male connector. Respect the wire colors: L+ (brown/green), 0V (white/green), A (brown), etc. Insulate unused wires.
What are the output signals of the RC6003?
The outputs are digital pulses: A and B 90° out of phase to determine rotation direction, and a zero index once per revolution. Versions with inverted signals are available.
How to mount the RC6003?
Screw the encoder onto a mounting flange. Use a flexible bellows coupling to compensate for shaft misalignment and avoid damaging the device. Avoid impacts on the shaft.
What is the maximum cable length?
For the 5 V TTL version: 100 m. For the 10...30 V HTL version: 300 m. Use appropriate shielded cables.
How to protect the encoder from interference?
Install cables at least 20 cm away from interference sources. The braided shielding is connected to the encoder housing.
What to do if the outputs are short-circuited?
The outputs are protected against short circuits: 5 V TTL version protected on 0V, HTL version protected on 0V and L+ (max. 1 minute). If the fault persists, check the wiring.
How to use the zero index?
The zero index provides a single pulse per mechanical revolution. It can serve as a reference mark after a power outage.
Where to find the technical datasheet and accessories?
Visit the website www.ifm.com to download the technical datasheet, complete manual, and see compatible accessories.
What to do in case of malfunction?
First check the wiring and power supply. Ensure the shaft has not suffered any impact. If the problem persists, contact IFM support.

Function and features

The encoder transforms rotational movement into pulse sequences. These allow the measurement of linear distances and angular movement as well as the determination of positions.

Electrical connection

IFM RC6003 - Electrical connection - 1

Disconnect power from the installation before connecting or disconnecting cables or connectors!

Unused wires must be insulated to avoid short circuits and cross faults.

Short-circuit protection

5 V TTL version: outputs short-circuit protected against 0 V 10...30 V HTL version: outputs short-circuit protected against 0 V and L+ for maximum 1 minute

If there is a deviation, the encoder must be connected as indicated on the label on the housing cap.

The wires L+ (sensor) and 0V (sensor) are internally connected to the supply voltage. When using external electronics which regulate the supply voltage these wires can be used as test wires. If unused, these wires must be connected to the supply voltage or insulated.

Depending on the version, the electrical connection is made via the cable or via cables to be obtained separately.

When using suitable cables the maximum cable length is 100 m for the 5 V TTL version and 300 m for the 10...30 V HTL version.

The cables must be laid separately from interfering sources, the minimum distance is 20 cm.

The braided screen in the cable is connected to the encoder housing.

Output signals

The encoder provides digital pulse sequences at the output stages.

The outputs A and B are electrically offset by 90^ . Thus the direction of rotation can be evaluated in the external electronics.

output A 180° 180° output B 0 index 90°

The combined zero index is provided once in a mechanical revolution of the shaft. In case of power failure it can be used as a reference point within a revolution.

The inverted output signals are used for external electronics with differential voltage input to filter interference.

Installation

IFM RC6003 - Installation - 1

Do not hit the shaft, do not use a file or similar tool on the shaft: This could destroy the unit!

The encoder can be screwed to the angle bracket. The shaft should be connected using a flexible bellows or spring disc coupling to compensate for shaft displacement and to protect the encoder against damage.

Linear movements can be transformed into a rotational movement using a measuring wheel or rack and pinion. For mounting the maximum permissible shaft loads of the encoder must be taken into account.

Mounting the angle bracket on a resilient base protects the encoder against too high a stress due to roughness of the material.
