7123606

Overview

The SICK part number 7123606 corresponds to the M20S-081A2A122 safety light curtain. This device features 81 beams with a vertical resolution of 25 mm and a maximum scanning range of 116 mm. It supports protective operation, beam coding, and External Device Monitoring (EDM). The unit utilizes an M12, 8-pin male connector for interface connectivity.

Feature Summary

• Supports protective operation with integrated beam coding for enhanced reliability
• Includes External Device Monitoring (EDM) functionality
• Utilizes M12, 8-pin male connector for secure connection

Applications

• Industrial machine guarding
• Safety zones in automated manufacturing
• Access protection for hazardous machinery

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code 1018196 matches the required configuration. Confirm that the M12 connector type is compatible with existing cabling infrastructure. Ensure the 25 mm resolution meets the required finger protection standards for the intended application area. Cross-reference the EDM requirement with the control system capabilities.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a compact scanning range up to 116 mm is sufficient. The 25 mm resolution is suitable for protecting against finger hazards. Verify compatibility with the M12 interface standard. Consider the M20E variant if an Ethernet-based connection is preferred over the M12 connector.

Part Context

This component belongs to the SICK M2000 Standard series of safety light curtains. The series offers various resolutions and ranges. The M20S suffix indicates the sender unit, while M20E denotes the receiver. This specific model provides a balance of high resolution and short-range protection.

Replacement Considerations

The corresponding receiver unit is M20E-081A2A122 (Ordering Code: 1018197). Ensure both sender and receiver units are paired correctly for proper operation.
