Where it sits in the control system
The CS81-P3612 is the device-level element in a SICK circuit breaker installation. It receives the field signals and control supply listed above — <= 440 V AC — and switches or conditions the load within the <= 440 V AC ratings shown in the Specifications table. Wiring and protective devices are sized to those same numbers, not to a generic assumption.
Typical installations place it in distribution boards, motor protection circuits, panel feeders, where the unit is matched to the original catalog number and the enclosure provides DIN rail / panel support. Record the catalog number and revision from the nameplate of the installed unit before specifying a like-for-like spare.
Selection notes for SICK CS81-P3612
SICK CS81-P3612 — Sensor or detector for object detection, distance measurement and status feedback on production lines. The figures below are taken from the specification table on this page for catalog number CS81-P3612; verify the catalog number against your bill of materials before requesting a quotation.
- Sensing distance Sn: • Very low jitter (< 10 μs) — Match it to the existing panel and upstream protection.
- Operating temperature: -25...+60 °C — Record it with the other nameplate data when sourcing a replacement.
- Dimensions (H x W x D): 31.5 mm x 21 mm x 12 mm — Confirm the revision of the installed unit before a like-for-like replacement.
- Mounting: DIN rail / panel — Use it as the reference when cross-checking a current-production equivalent.

Common questions about CS81-P3612
Q.Before ordering CS81-P3612, which operating temperature entry should be checked?
The operating temperature entry quoted above is -25...+60 °C. Compare it with the nameplate of the installed unit before ordering.
Q.Where can I find the certifications data for CS81-P3612?
It is listed in the specification table for SICK CS81-P3612 as CE, cULus. Confirm this figure against the unit currently in the panel.
Q.For CS81-P3612, what does the specification table state about rated operational voltage?
The specification table lists rated operational voltage = <= 440 V AC for SICK CS81-P3612. Use the value as the reference when sourcing a current-production equivalent.
Q.Can the CS81-P3612 replace the unit currently installed in my panel?
Compare catalog number CS81-P3612 and the ratings above with the nameplate of the installed device. A current-production equivalent is selected by function and electrical rating, not by the label alone.
Q.What should I include in an enquiry for CS81-P3612?
Send the full catalog number CS81-P3612, the required quantity and a photo of the nameplate. Stock, lead time and the applicable compliance documents can then be confirmed for SICK CS81-P3612.
