Sick Absolute Encoder Zinc Housing IP65 30V dc 4096 ppr IO-Link Signal Blind Hollow Shaft AHM36B-BDQC012X12 / 1092007

The Sick AHM36B-BDQC012X12 / 1092007 Absolute Encoder in zinc housing with IP65 rating provides reliable multi-turn absolute positional feedback for industrial automation applications. It operates at 30V DC with an output signal via IO-Link interface and has a maximum resolution of 4096 pulses per revolution and 4096 revolutions, delivering high positional accuracy with an error limit around 0.35° at standard temperature conditions.

This encoder features a blind hollow shaft of 10mm diameter with a front-clamp shaft attachment using stainless steel for durability and minimal rotor inertia of 15 g·cm², enhancing dynamic response. The IP65-rated zinc enclosure protects against dust and water ingress, suitable for demanding factory floor environments.

The device supports fast communication using IO-Link V1.1 COM3 protocol with a cycle time up to 3.2 ms and fast initialization time of 2 seconds, enabling high-update-rate feedback loops critical for servo drives, robotics joints, and rotary indexing mechanisms.

Designed to function reliably within a wide temperature range of −20°C to 70°C and withstand shocks of up to 100g and vibrations of 20g, this encoder complies with industrial EMC standards EN 61000-6-3, EN 61131-9, and EN 61000-6-2, ensuring robust performance in industrial automation settings.

Common applications include feedback for conveyor servo drives, machine tool axis referencing, packaging machinery, and material handling equipment where precise angular position and speed feedback is critical for operational accuracy and efficiency.

Features a 12bit x 12bit addressing system for detailed position feedback. IO-Link V1.1 COM3 supports efficient 230.4k Baud communication. Fast initialisation provides valid positional output in 2 seconds. Cycle time ≤ 3.2 ms supports high-speed control loops.

Operates within an 18 to 30 V DC electrical range, fitting common 24V systems. IP65-rated zinc housing ensures protection against harsh environments. Blind hollow shaft mounting with 10mm diameter and stainless steel shaft material.

Temperature operating range from −20°C up to +70°C withstanding industrial conditions. Complies with EN 61000-6-3, EN 61131-9, and EN 61000-6-2 standards. Ideal for servo drive feedback, robotics joint angle control, and rotary indexing tables.
