Angular Sensors 4000246640 for Haulotte Scissor Lift parts Optimum 08, Compact 10 Compact 12

Product Overview: Angular Sensor (Part #: 4000246640)

This component is an Angular Sensor (also commonly known as a Tilt Sensor, Inclination Sensor, or Angle Transducer) designed as a genuine replacement part for specific Haulotte scissor lift models. It is a critical safety and control device that measures the angle of the machine's chassis relative to the ground.

Primary Function:
To continuously monitor the lift's level and inclination, providing essential data to the machine's control system to ensure safe operation and prevent tip-overs.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Precision Measurement: Accurately detects and measures the angle of inclination in one or more axes.

• Solid-State Technology: Typically utilizes micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) or electrolytic technology for reliable, wear-free operation with no moving parts.

• Output Signal: Provides a proportional electrical signal (e.g., voltage, PWM, or CANbus) to the machine's central controller, corresponding to the measured angle.

• Robust Housing: Encased in a durable, sealed enclosure to protect against dust, moisture, vibration, and impacts commonly found on construction sites.

• Easy Installation: Designed as a direct replacement for the original part, ensuring correct fitment and calibration.

• Safety-Critical Component: Directly interfaces with the machine's safety system, which may trigger alarms, reduce functionality, or completely disable drive and lift functions if an unsafe angle is detected.

Compatibility & Application:

• OEM Manufacturer: Haulotte

• Compatible Models: This sensor is specified for use in the following Haulotte scissor lift series:

  • Optimum 08

  • Compact 10

  • Compact 12

• Machine Type: Electric Scissor Lifts

• Application: Installed on the chassis of the scissor lift to monitor its stability.

Purpose & Importance:

This angular sensor is a fundamental part of the machine's Active Stability System. Its primary roles are:

1. Tip-Over Prevention: The primary safety function. It ensures the lift does not operate on a slope that exceeds its safe engineering limits.

2. Operator Safety: Alerts the operator (via a warning light or alarm) if the machine is on an excessive slope and may automatically restrict further movement.

3. Machine Protection: Helps prevent structural damage that could occur from operating the scissor mechanism on an uneven surface.

4. Compliance: Ensures the lift adheres to relevant safety standards (such as ANSI/SAIA A92.20/22).

Common Reasons for Replacement:

• Fault Codes: The machine's diagnostic system displays an error code related to the tilt sensor or leveling system.

• Intermittent Operation: Unexplained safety alarms or function cut-outs, especially when the machine is on a level surface.

• Physical Damage: Damage from impact, corrosion, or environmental exposure.

• Calibration Loss: The sensor may need replacement if it cannot be recalibrated to the machine's specifications.

• Electrical Failure: Internal failure of the sensor's electronics.

Important Note: Replacement of this safety-critical component must be performed by a qualified service technician. After installation, the sensor must be calibrated according to the official Haulotte service manual to ensure the lift operates safely and within specified parameters.
