US Digital's New L2 Low Profile Motor Encoder

Vancouver, Washington – November 20, 2025. US Digital announced today the release of the new L2 Low-Profile Motor Encoder with the following features:

• Low profile — only 0.396 in. tall
• Uses field-proven components, with millions sold over decades
• Simple, quick installation

The L2 incremental encoder uses US Digital’s proven EM1 optical encoder module and disk, which has billions of device-hours of dependable service in customer applications. This product continues US Digital’s strong reputation for reliable, field-tested encoders.

The L2 is US Digital’s lowest height encoder that uses the EM1 module. It has a 0.75 in. bolt-spacing mount. The maximum resolution is 1250 CPR (5000 PPR with quadrature).  The L2 is only available with a single-ended output.

Another benefit of the L2 incremental encoder is its fast installation. The cover snaps onto the base to secure the module. It is designed for use with a high-retention connector or cable (sold separately).

Like all US Digital products, the L2 is designed and manufactured in Vancouver, Washington, USA. It is backed by prompt access to our technical and customer service teams with same-day shipping on most orders. US Digital is now accepting orders for the L2 for worldwide shipping.
