Ultrasonics sensors for position and level detection

  Description Learn More
Ultrasonic sensors detect all sound-reflecting surfaces
Typical photoelectric sensors can struggle with certain applications where target color, transparency and reflectivity vary. ifm's ultrasonic sensor provide reliable position and level detection without regard to the target characteristics. Using IO-Link, the distance value is transmitted to the nearest millimeter.
Full-metal ultrasonic sensors are extremely robust
From the diaphragm to the connector, these ultrasonic sensors are completely enclosed in 316L stainless steel, making them resistant to external influences and extending their life-in-service.

 

The perfect solution for challenging surfaces

Ultrasonic sensors detect all sound-reflecting objects and measures the time from transmission to reception of a sound signal. The target's color, transparency and surface reflectivity are irrelevant. ifm offers variants in M18 and M30 designs with sensing range up to 8 m.

With the IO-Link enabled version, setup is achieved in a few minutes using the moneo | configure software on a laptop or the moneo | blue app that runs on a mobile device.
