1064791

Overview

The SICK model 1064791 is an inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable object detection in industrial automation environments. It operates on a DC voltage supply and provides a switching output to signal the presence of metallic targets within its specified sensing range. The device features a robust housing suitable for integration into machinery where precise position feedback or safety interlocking is required.

Feature Summary

• Inductive detection principle for metallic target identification
• Integrated switching output for control system interfacing
• Compact form factor for space-constrained installations

Applications

• Position detection in automated assembly lines
• Safety interlock monitoring for machine guards
• Object counting and presence verification in packaging equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the official SICK datasheet to confirm electrical characteristics, cable length, and connection type. Ensure the ordering number matches the required sensing distance and operating voltage for your application. Cross-reference with current product availability through authorized distributors to avoid obsolete stock.

Selection Notes

Select this component based on the required sensing range, target material compatibility, and environmental conditions such as temperature and vibration. Confirm that the switching output type aligns with the input requirements of the connected PLC or safety relay. Evaluate mounting constraints and housing dimensions to ensure physical fit within the design.

Part Context

This part belongs to SICK's portfolio of inductive proximity sensors, which are widely used for non-contact detection of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. These sensors are integral to modern factory automation, providing durable and accurate feedback for motion control and safety systems.

Replacement Considerations

Consult SICK documentation for direct cross-references or updated series replacements. Verify pinout compatibility and mounting hole patterns when substituting with other brands to ensure seamless integration without mechanical modification.
