Product Description

The SICK UM12-1192261 (6053548) is a high-performance ultrasonic distance sensor engineered to provide reliable measurement and detection in the most confined industrial environments. Housed in a rugged, nickel-plated brass M12 cylindrical body, this sensor utilizes acoustic time-of-flight technology to detect objects regardless of their color, transparency, or surface finish. It features an operating range of 40 mm to 240 mm and provides a precise 4–20 mA analog output for continuous distance monitoring.

Equipped with integrated temperature compensation, the UM12 ensures high measurement accuracy even during fluctuating ambient conditions. Its design prioritizes ease of integration, offering a straightforward teach-in process via cable to prevent accidental adjustments. With its unshielded, straight-axis emission and impressive resistance to dirt, dust, and fog, the UM12-1192261 stands as a versatile solution for applications requiring non-contact distance measurement where space is at a premium and reliability is non-negotiable.

 

Key Performance Features

  • Superior Material Versatility: Reliably detects transparent, shiny, dark, or multi-colored objects that often challenge optical sensors.
  • High Precision: Offers a resolution of ≥ 0.069 mm and a repeatability of ± 0.15% for consistent process control.
  • Integrated Temperature Compensation: Automatically adjusts for temperature changes to maintain a measurement accuracy of ± 1%.
  • Rugged Durability: Features a one-piece metal housing with IP65/IP67 ratings, suitable for harsh industrial conditions.
  • Intelligent Interference Suppression: Excellent background suppression ensures the sensor focuses only on the target object.
  • Fast Response Time: Typical response time of 30 ms allows for efficient performance in automated lines.

 

Ideal Applications

Level Monitoring: Measuring levels of liquids or bulk materials in small containers or hoppers.

Diameter Control: Continuous checking of roll diameters for foil, paper, or metal coils to manage winding processes.

Object Detection in Packaging: Identifying transparent bottles, glass jars, or shiny plastic trays on conveyor systems.

Quality Inspection: Positioning and height measurement of parts in assembly lines.

Material Handling: Detecting the presence of dark or reflective components on automated machinery.
