Improving Encoder Cable Noise Resistance
Take the following steps during wiring and installation to improve the encoder’s noise resistance.
Always use the specified Encoder Cables.
If cables are joined midway, be sure to use connectors and do not remove more than 50 mm of
the cable insulation. In addition, always use shielded cables.
Do not coil cables. If cables are long and coiled, mutual induction and inductance will increase and
cause malfunctions. Always use cables fully extended.
When installing noise filters for Encoder Cables, use clamp filters.
The following table shows the recommended clamp filters.
Do not place the Encoder Cable with the following cables in the same duct.
Control Cables for brakes, solenoids, clutches, and valves.
