*1.Rotary Encoders, When the power is turned on, an inrush current of about 9A flows. (Time: about 0.3ms)
*2.The maximum electrical response speed is determined by the resolution and maximum response frequency.

Therefore, if you rotate it at a speed exceeding the maximum response speed, the signal will not follow electrically.
*3. There is no protection against water or oil.
