7124687

Overview

The SICK model 7124687 is a safety light curtain component belonging to the M2000 Standard series. It features 81 optical axes with a beam pitch of 25 mm and a vertical scanning range of 116 mm. The device supports protective operation, beam coding, and external device monitoring (EDM). It utilizes an M12, 8-pin male connector for connection type.

Feature Summary

• Supports protective operation with integrated beam coding for reliable detection.
• Includes functionality for external device monitoring (EDM) to enhance system safety integrity.
• Utilizes a compact design with a 25 mm beam pitch for precise object detection.

Applications

• Machine guarding applications requiring personnel protection
• Access monitoring at hazardous machine zones
• Safety interlocking in industrial automation equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code against the required connector type. The M2000 series offers variants with M12 or Hirschmann connectors. Confirm that the 116 mm height and 25 mm resolution meet the specific safety distance calculations for the intended application. Ensure compatibility with the existing safety controller inputs.

Selection Notes

Select this model based on the required field height of 116 mm and the need for EDM support. The 25 mm resolution is suitable for detecting hand access. Compare with other M2000 variants if a different scanning range or connector interface, such as M26 Hirschmann, is preferred for the installation environment.

Part Context

This component is part of the SICK M2000 Standard safety light curtain family. This series is designed for versatile safety applications in industrial environments. The M2000 line provides various configurations differing in beam count, resolution, and mounting options to suit diverse machine safety requirements.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacement requires matching the 81-axis configuration and 116 mm height. Verify connector compatibility; ensure the control system supports the M12 8-pin interface used by this specific variant rather than the Hirschmann versions available in the same series.
