Rotary encoders PPR

This is a very intresting thread. My experience with China import is not very good either so I dont use them. Here is a few good encoders I have experience of:

  • CTS 288V232R161B2 (Digi-Key, Mouser, Leobodnar)
    Single encoder with button . This is a flawless device, 16 detents, panel mount. Really nice and distinct clicks. This is my personal favorite.

  • CTS 288T232R161A2 (Digi-Key)
    Same as above but without button.

  • Bourns PEC11R-4215F-S0024 (Electrokit)
    Single encoder with button. 24 detents, panel mount. This is a good one too. Not as “clicky” as the CTS ones, but just as distinct. It’s smaller in size than the CTS.

  • Elma E37 (Leobodnar)
    Dual rotary encoder with button. 16/16 detents, panel mount. Really good dual encoder, clicky and distinct like the CTS above.
