1123971

Overview

The SICK model 1123971 is an absolute encoder from the AHS/AHM36 series. It features a mechanical Mean Time to Dangerous Failure (MTTFD) of 240 years, calculated based on nominal load, average ambient temperature of 40°C, and a frequency of use of 8760 hours per annum according to EN ISO 13849-1. The product is classified as a standard product and does not constitute a safety component as defined in the Machinery Directive.

Feature Summary

• Provides absolute position data via the AHS/AHM36 architecture.

Applications

• Industrial automation systems requiring absolute position feedback.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific订货号 against official SICK documentation to ensure compatibility with existing mounting systems and interface requirements. Confirm that the application environment aligns with the standard product classification and does not require certified safety components under the Machinery Directive.

Selection Notes

Select this unit for applications needing absolute position retention without reliance on battery backup mechanisms inherent in some other absolute technologies. Ensure the mechanical load and ambient temperature conditions remain within the parameters used for the MTTFD calculation to maintain reliability expectations.

Part Context

This component belongs to the SICK AHS/AHM36 family of absolute encoders. These devices are designed for industrial environments where reliable position monitoring is critical. The series integrates robust mechanical design with electronic sensing to deliver consistent performance across various automation tasks.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official SICK substitution guides for verified replacements. Generic equivalents may not match the specific MTTFD ratings or mounting configurations of the AHM36 series.
