SICK AG ARS60-GDA00360 Absolute Rotary Encoder

The SICK ARS60-GDA00360 Absolute Rotary Encoder is a single-turn, absolute encoder in the ARS60 family that provides fixed angular position data through a parallel output interface, making it a straightforward choice for rugged automation and automated-axis feedback. It is configured with a 15 mm through hollow shaft and a radial M23, 21-pin connector for compact, reliable mounting and cabling in limited spaces, and is described as non-programmable in its standard configuration. The model is explicitly identified as ARS60-GDA00360 (SICK Device-ID 1032851) in official documentation, including EU conformity records, confirming the device type and variant across supplier catalogs. As a parallel-output ARS60 encoder, this variant supports single-turn position sensing without multi-turn memory, aligning with how the ARS60 family is documented for direct, immediate angle feedback in machine tools, robotics, and other automation tasks.
