Industrial Applications

1. Level Control in Non-Contact Liquid or Granular Storage

This ultrasonic sensor can precisely monitor the fill level in tanks or hoppers containing liquids or bulk granular materials within its 60-2000mm sensing range without physical contact. The two independent PNP switch outputs allow for configurable minimum and maximum level alarms or control points.

Problem Solved

Accurate, non-contact level monitoring in corrosive or abrasive environments, preventing overflow or dry-run conditions by providing distinct switching signals for critical levels.

2. Object Detection and Position Control on Conveyor Belts

With a sensing range of 60-2000mm and two independent PNP outputs, this sensor is ideal for detecting various objects on a conveyor belt and triggering actions based on their presence or position. The 'extremely small unusable area' ensures detection close to the sensor, while temperature compensation provides reliable operation in varying ambient conditions (-25 to 70 °C).

Problem Solved

Reliable object presence and precise position detection on production lines, even for objects of varying materials or colors, enabling automated sorting or stopping mechanisms.

3. Collision Avoidance for AGVs/Robots in Industrial Settings

The UB2000-F42-E6-V15 can be used on Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) or robotic systems for collision avoidance. Its 60-2000mm sensing range allows for detection of obstacles at varying distances, and the two PNP outputs can be configured for different warning zones (e.g., slow down, stop). The compact size and IP54 rating make it suitable for challenging industrial environments.

Problem Solved

Enhancing safety and operational efficiency of mobile robots and AGVs by reliably detecting obstacles within a critical range, minimizing collisions and downtime.
