Broad Power Input: Operates efficiently with a 10–30V DC power supply, ensuring wide compatibility. Durable M18 Housing: Features a robust nickel-plated brass M18 threaded metal enclosure for secure and long-lasting installation. Standard M12 Connection: Equipped with a 4-pin M12 connector for swift, reliable, and industry-standard electrical hook-up. Integrated Status Indicators: Bright LED indicators for echo presence and power status offer immediate operational feedback. Rapid Detection: Engineered for quick switching, making it suitable for dynamic applications requiring fast object identification. High Ultrasonic Frequency: Utilizes a ~380 kHz ultrasonic frequency for accurate and stable detection. IP67 Protection: Ensures exceptional protection against dust and water ingress, guaranteeing reliable operation in challenging industrial environments. Technical Specifications Model Number: UB300-18GM40-E5-V1 Part Number: 220357 Detection Range: 20 mm to 300 mm Output Type: PNP NO Supply Voltage: 10–30V DC Current Consumption: ≤ 35 mA Max Output Current: 100 mA Voltage Drop: ≤ 2 V Ultrasonic Frequency: 380 kHz Switching Frequency: 5 Hz Response Time: 100 ms Protection Class: IP67 Housing Material: Nickel-plated brass Connection: M12 x 1, 4-pin Operating Temperature: -25°C to +70°C Mounting Type: Threaded M18 with locknuts Applications Packaging Machinery: Crucial for precise detection of packages, bottles, or other containers, ensuring accurate presence sensing and fill level monitoring. Material Handling Systems: Excellently suited for sensing non-metallic, irregularly shaped, or acoustically soft objects on conveyor belts or within automated material flow. Level Measurement: Provides accurate and continuous distance measurement to both solid and liquid surfaces in tanks and hoppers, irrespective of material color or transparency. Food & Beverage Industry: Its robust design and IP67 rating make it ideal for use in splash zones and for detecting clear containers, aligning with stringent hygiene requirements. Automotive Manufacturing: Reliable for presence detection of various components, including painted or plastic parts, overcoming challenges of varying surface finishes. Wood Processing: Effective in detecting raw wood, planks, or panels where dust and irregular surfaces are common.
