SICK FX3-EBX400002 Drive

The SICK FX3-EBX400002 is a dual encoder connection box (passive distributor) for FX3 integration modules, designed to bring two encoder interfaces into the FX3 system with clean, labeled wiring. Identified by part number 2068729, this interface module provides ENC1 and ENC2 signal paths for A, B, and C channels along with dedicated 24 V encoder power rails (ENC1_24V and ENC2_24V) and a common return (0 V), typically interfacing through 15-pin D-Sub HD connectors. The pin mapping covers ENC1_A+, ENC1_A−, ENC1_24V, ENC2_A+, ENC2_A−, ENC2_24V, and the corresponding B and C lines, enabling straightforward integration of incremental encoders with SICK FX3 safety/automation hardware. As a passive distributor, FX3-EBX400002 routes encoder signals and power to the encoders without active electronics, helping preserve signal integrity for reliable position and speed feedback. The module is documented with conformity declarations (EU and UK) and is designed to support encoder-based feedback in applications such as motion control, conveyors, and packaging lines where FX3 modules are deployed. In practice, it consolidates encoder wiring in a compact FX3 setup, reducing cabling complexity while providing clear, certified connections for two independent encoders and their power supplies.
