SICK Ultrasonic Rectangular Proximity Sensor, 6 m Detection, IO-Link, 9 → 30 V dc

The sensors of the UC30 product family impress with excellent performance in a compact cubic housing. Due to color-independent detection, high contamination tolerance and outstanding background suppression, UC30 sensors deliver stable measurement results even under challenging conditions. Various output signals with sensing ranges of up to 8,000 mm as well as high measurement accuracy due to the integrated temperature compensation leave no applications unsolved. Teach-in buttons and IO-Link also extend the diagnostic and configuration options of these ultrasonic sensors.

The SICK ultrasonic sensors(UM18/UC30/UC4) show their strengths in the contact-free detection of objects in all imaginable applications. The ultrasonic sensors perform measurement and detection tasks in a wide variety of application areas on colored, shiny, or transparent surfaces, which are particularly challenging for optical sensors. Even adverse ambient conditions such as dust, dirt, or fog hardly affect the measurement result. The broad detection range also allows for a large field to be monitored with just one sensor – with a measuring range of 13 mm to 8 m.
