Hear the invisible! Ultrasonic sensors from ifm.

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document provides detailed information about ifm's ultrasonic sensors, highlighting their robust design, wide sensing range, and versatility in industrial applications. These sensors are designed to detect objects using ultrasonic sound waves, making them suitable for environments where photoelectric sensors may fail.

Specifications: The sensors feature a high-grade stainless steel housing, ensuring durability in demanding applications. They offer a sensing range of up to 2.20 meters, with options for M18 plastic or stainless steel housing. The output can be configured as PNP or NPN, with analogue outputs of 4...20 mA or 0...10 V.

Key Features:

Robustness: The stainless steel housing is designed for challenging environments.
Non-stick: A vibrating sound transducer minimizes dirt accumulation.
Independent Detection: Retro-reflective operation allows for orientation-independent object detection.
Ease of Use: Settings can be adjusted via a teach button, wire teach, or IO-Link.

Applications: These sensors are ideal for detecting transparent objects like blister packs and PET bottles, and they perform well even with heavy soiling. They are suitable for long-range object detection and can handle difficult surfaces where color, transparency, or shininess might affect other sensor types.

Additional Information: For more technical data, accessories, and application videos, users are directed to visit ifm's website. The document also mentions the wide range of ifm products, including position sensors, safety technology, and industrial communication systems.

Hear the invisible! Ultrasonic sensors from ifm.-3

UG series ultrasonic sensors Ultrasonic detection Ultrasonic sensors transmit and receive sound waves in the ultrasonic range. The object to be detected reflects the sound waves and the distance information is determined via time of flight measurement. Robust: Robust high-grade stainless steel housing for demanding applications. Wide sensing field The wide beam allows the sensors to reliably detect even objects with holes. Sensing range up to 1.20 m in M18 cube design and 2.20 m in M18 design. Non-stick: The vibrating sound transducer reduces the deposit of dirt. Independent: Retro-reflective...

Object detection for long ranges and difficult surfaces Long range of up to 2.20 m Difficult surfaces As opposed to photoelectric sensors colour, transparency or the shiny surfaces do not affect detection. High performance Even in different applications – from monitoring of batch height of cardboard packaging and distance monitoring to the “empty” detection of shiny plastic labels – the new sensors reliably provide the correct analogue output.
