Product catalog summary
Overview
The document provides comprehensive technical specifications and operational guidelines for the XX range of ultrasonic sensors, designed for reliable object detection in industrial applications. These sensors are available in cylindrical forms made of plastic or metal and offer both digital and analog outputs. They are suitable for general-purpose use and can detect objects at distances up to 8 meters.
Key Features
  • Non-contact detection unaffected by lighting conditions or material reflectivity.
  • Three operating modes: Diffuse, Reflex, and Thru-beam, each tailored for specific detection needs.
  • Detection range from 50 mm to 8 m, with plug & play functionality requiring no adjustments.
Operating Modes
  • Diffuse Mode: Best for flat surfaces perpendicular to the ultrasonic beam.
  • Reflex Mode: Suitable for objects that absorb ultrasonic waves or have irregular shapes.
  • Thru-beam Mode: Ideal for small object detection requiring high accuracy and fast response.
Applications
  • Non-contact detection of objects regardless of shape, material, or color.
  • Used in assembly, packaging, process handling, and level monitoring.
  • Specific applications include conveyor jam detection, glue bead detection, and clear bottle detection.
Technical Specifications
  • Power supply: 12-24 V with reverse polarity protection.
  • Output types: PNP/NPN, 4-20 mA, or 0-10 V.
  • Protection degree: IP 67, with some models offering IP 69K for high-pressure cleaning resistance.
Quality and Standards
  • Conforms to IEC 60947-5-2 standards.
  • Resistant to various chemicals and suitable for food and beverage industry applications.
Recommendations
  • Designed for standard industrial applications, not suitable for safety applications.
  • For safety applications, refer to the manufacturer's website.
Operating Principle
The ultrasonic detection principle involves measuring the time between the transmission of an ultrasonic wave and the reception of its echo. The sensors consist of a high voltage generator, a piezoelectric transducer, a signal processing stage, and an output stage. A microcontroller analyzes the signal to determine the presence of an object.
Advantages of Ultrasonic Detection
Ultrasonic sensors offer non-contact detection, making them suitable for fragile objects. They detect materials regardless of color and have a teach mode for precise detection zones. They are robust, with no moving parts, and offer digital and analog outputs.
Terminology Definitions
Key terms include nominal sensing distance, detection zone, minimum and maximum sensing distances, assured operating distance, blind zone, differential travel, repeat accuracy, overall beam angle, and standard metal target, as defined by IEC 60947-5-2 standards.
Sensor Outputs and Indicators
XX ultrasonic sensors have LED indicators for power and object presence. They offer NO and NC contact logic, with various wiring techniques for digital and analog outputs.
Power Supply and Cabling
Sensors require a DC power supply with specific voltage limits. Proper cabling and separation of control and power cables are recommended to avoid interference.
Setting-up Precautions
Mounting distance between sensors is crucial to avoid interference. Maximum tightening torque specifications are provided for different sensor models. Interchangeability is facilitated by indexed fixing clamps.
Connection Methods
Series connection is not recommended due to potential operational issues. Parallel connection is allowed with precautions for capacitive loads and incandescent lamps.
Detection Systems
Ultrasonic sensors operate in diffuse, reflex, and thru-beam modes. Each mode has specific applications and limitations based on object shape, material, and environmental conditions.
Materials and Construction
The sensor cases are made from PBT, nickel-plated brass, or stainless steel 316L, with sensing faces composed of epoxy, resin, and rubber. They use a 5-pin M12 connector for connections.
Electrical Characteristics
The sensors operate on a supply voltage of 12-24 V with protection against reverse polarity. They have a current consumption of less than 65 mA when no load is applied. The output characteristics include yellow and green LED indicators for output and echo states, respectively. The sensors have a maximum switching frequency of 5.5 Hz and are equipped with internal temperature compensation.
Environmental Characteristics
The sensors are rated IP65 and IP67 for protection against dust and water. They can operate in temperatures ranging from -25°C to +70°C and can be stored in temperatures from -40°C to +80°C. They are resistant to vibration and mechanical shock as per IEC standards.
Configuration and Setup
The sensors can be configured using a teach procedure for setting detection windows and modes such as window mode and pump/hysteresis mode. They support synchronization for side-by-side applications, allowing up to 8 sensors to be synchronized to avoid mutual interference.
Accessories
The document lists various accessories, including pre-wired connectors, mounting accessories, and configuration kits. The teach pushbutton XXZPB100 is used for remote configuration.
Diagrams and Curves
The document includes operating diagrams for digital and analog output sensors, wiring schemes, and detection curves for different target types and sizes.
Wide Beam Sensors
The document also introduces the "XX Wide Beam" sensors, designed for mobile equipment like lift trucks and cherry pickers. These sensors offer a wide detection area, rugged construction, and noise detection capabilities. They are suitable for harsh environments and certified for use under UN Regulation 10R-06 and cULus.
Applications
These sensors are ideal for detecting obstacles in mobile equipment, ensuring safety and efficiency in operations involving lifting or rotating machinery.
Software and Interface
The configuration software supports multiple languages and requires a Windows OS with specific hardware requirements. It provides functionalities such as echo display and parameter recording, enhancing troubleshooting and configuration efficiency.

Long distance proximity detection Ultrasonic technology allows now for long distance proximity detection. The XXV Ø18 ultrasonic sensors enable detection from 0 to 50 mm (i.e. 2.5 times farther than standard inductive proximity sensors) with minimal environment constraints or object material and colour restrictions. Sensors mounted too close to moving-metal parts are exposed to hits or impacts which can cause machine downtime. Being able to install sensors farther away from moving targets reduces the exposure to potential incidents. You increase installation profitability! detection distance...
