All-in-one Allen-bradley 4100-ef04 Collection [JmsCSoQZ]

All-in-one Allen-bradley 4100-ef04 Collection [JmsCSoQZ] | 4-Channel Encoder Buffer Unit

Overview

The All-in-one Allen-bradley 4100-ef04 Collection [JmsCSoQZ] is a 4-channel encoder buffer unit designed to replicate and distribute incremental quadrature encoder signals with high fidelity. It accepts RS422 TTL-level signals from a master encoder and provides four buffered outputs, ensuring signal integrity across multiple devices in motion control systems.

Key Features

• Input Signal: RS422 TTL-level incremental quadrature signals

• Output Channels: 4 buffered outputs replicating the master signal

• Supply Voltage: 24V DC nominal (operational range: 18–36V DC)

• Encoder Supply Options: Selectable 5V or 12V DC for master encoder

• Follower Output Power: Individually selectable 5V DC power for each output

• Mounting: DIN rail compatible with integral mounting feet

• Indicators: LED indicators for power status and encoder supply voltage

• Configuration Options:

  • Encoder Direction: Selectable as "As Master" or "Reversed"

  • Follower Power: Configurable per channel
