1118380

Overview

The SICK model 1118380 is a safety light curtain component, specifically the receiver unit for the M4000 series. It operates with a resolution of 40 mm and provides a protective field height of 900 mm. The device supports up to 25 beams and features a scanning range of 16 mm. It utilizes an M12 connector interface for connectivity. The unit is designed for safety applications requiring Type 4 performance according to EN 61496-1 and achieves Performance Level e (PL e) as per ISO 13849-1. It incorporates beam coding and external device monitoring (EDM) functions to ensure operational integrity.

Feature Summary

• Integrates beam coding technology to prevent interference from adjacent safety devices
• Supports external device monitoring (EDM) for comprehensive safety circuit verification
• Features a compact cylindrical housing design suitable for space-constrained installations

Applications

• Machine guarding for press brakes and stamping machines
• Access protection for automated assembly lines
• Hazard zone monitoring in packaging machinery

Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering number 1118380 corresponds to the specific receiver variant required for your M4000 system configuration. Confirm compatibility with the corresponding transmitter unit and necessary mounting accessories. Ensure the selected resolution and protective field height meet the specific risk assessment requirements of the intended application before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a 40 mm resolution and 900 mm protective field height are required for Type 4 safety applications. Consider the 16 mm scanning range and M12 connection type during system integration planning. Ensure the installation environment allows for the specified optical axis alignment and does not exceed the permissible ambient temperature ranges defined in the technical documentation.

Part Context

This component belongs to the SICK M4000 series of safety light curtains, which are engineered for robust industrial safety environments. The series is characterized by high reliability and flexible configuration options. This specific receiver unit works in conjunction with matching transmitters to create a protective field, serving as a critical element in safeguarding personnel from moving machine parts.

Replacement Considerations

When replacing existing units, verify that the new receiver matches the resolution and protective field height of the legacy system. Ensure compatibility with the current safety controller and wiring harnesses. Cross-reference part numbers to confirm functional equivalence, particularly regarding beam coding and EDM support capabilities.
