Precise Position and Speed Control in Environments with Strong Magnetic Fields
Baumer EN380 is a new generation incremental encoder with optical sensing that delivers stable performance even in direct proximity to electric motors, frequency converters, and other strong magnetic field sources — where magnetic encoders lose accuracy.
Optical technology ensures high signal quality with low jitter and latency — essential for axis synchronization and dynamic motion where every pulse counts.
EN380 — Technical Highlights
Precise positioning
- High accuracy up to ±0.025°
- Optical sensing method
- Resolution up to 5,000 pulses per revolution (ppr)
- Low jitter and latency for precise axis synchronization
Robust design

- Maximum resistance against magnetic fields
- Protection class up to IP65, operating temperature from -25 °C to +85 °C
Compact integration
- Compact housing — ø30 mm or ø40 mm
- Minimum flange diameter 30 mm
- Low weight for dynamic motion
Always the right choice
- Solid shaft and hollow bore versions (blind and through)
- Output signals HTL or TTL
- Custom resolutions up to 65,536 ppr (on request)
Applications
AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles)
Packaging equipment
Intralogistics systems
Asynchronous motor systems
Manufacturing equipment
Medical devices
EN380 Series Available in Three Configurations
EN380.IL-S— Solid Shaft (Housing ø30 mm)
The most compact variant with a ø30 mm housing and minimum flange diameter of 30 mm.
- Shaft diameter ø5 mm or ø6 mm (length 12 mm)
- Resolution from 100 to 1,024 ppr
- HTL (8...30 VDC) or TTL (5 VDC) signals
- 1 m cable
- Connects to the drive shaft via coupling
Suitable for machines with limited mounting space where the smallest possible encoder size is required.
EN380.IL-B— Blind Hollow Shaft (Housing ø40 mm)
Encoder with a ø40 mm housing that mounts directly onto the shaft end. No separate coupling needed — simpler installation and fewer components.
- Bore diameter ø6 mm or ø12 mm
- Resolution from 250 to 2,000 ppr
- HTL (8...30 VDC) or TTL (5 VDC) signals
- Stator coupling (ø45 mm) or torque pin (3 mm)
- 1 m or 2 m cable
Suitable when a direct connection to the shaft is preferred, reducing mechanical complexity and installation time.
EN380.IL-T— Through Hollow Shaft (Housing ø40 mm
The shaft passes through the encoder housing.
- Bore diameter ø6 mm
- Resolution from 360 to 2,048 ppr
- HTL (8...30 VDC) or TTL (5 VDC) signals
- Stator coupling (ø45 mm) or torque pin (3 mm)
- 1 m cable
Designed for applications where the shaft must not be interrupted or where mounting on a long continuous shaft is required.
