Grayhill 62R30-02-P Rotary Encoder Optical 12PPR - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Grayhill 62R30-02-P is an optical rotary encoder with 12 pulses per revolution (PPR) in quadrature (incremental) output configuration. This vertical-orientation encoder features a 1/4" diameter flatted end actuator, integrated detent mechanism, and built-in switch functionality. The component is designed for PCB through-hole mounting with PC pin termination and operates at 5V supply voltage.

The 62R30-02-P maintains Active product status with 838 units in current inventory. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to ensure supply chain continuity, optimize procurement options, and maintain design flexibility across production cycles.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 62R30-02-P is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Encoder Type: Optical
• Output Type: Quadrature (Incremental)
• Pulses per Revolution: 12
• Voltage - Supply: 5V
• Actuator Type: 1/4" Dia Flatted End
• Detent: Yes
• Built in Switch: Yes
• Mounting Type: PCB, Through Hole
• Orientation: Vertical
• Termination Style: PC Pin
• Rotational Life (Cycles Min): 1M

The substitute part 62N30-P meets all mandatory matching parameters and is therefore classified as a direct functional equivalent. Both components are manufactured by Grayhill Inc. and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary distinction between these parts is the series designation (62R versus 62N) and packaging configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 62R30-02-P and 62N30-P are Active status products manufactured by Grayhill Inc. with identical functional specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on the following factors:

Compliance Considerations: The 62R30-02-P carries RoHS Compliant certification, while the 62N30-P carries ROHS3 Compliant certification. Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8543.70.4500) classifications.

Packaging and Inventory: The 62R30-02-P is supplied in standard packaging with 838 units currently in stock. The 62N30-P is supplied in bulk packaging with 755 units currently in stock. Packaging selection should align with procurement volume requirements and supply chain logistics.

Functional Equivalence: Both parts deliver identical electrical and mechanical performance across all specified parameters. Circuit-level integration, PCB layout, and firmware implementation require no modification when substituting between these parts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 62N30-P directly replace the 62R30-02-P in existing designs?
