Product Description

The SICK UM30-211112 (6037664) is a high-performance ultrasonic distance sensor engineered for maximum reliability in challenging industrial environments. Utilizing advanced acoustic technology, the sensor provides highly accurate measurements of natural objects, regardless of their color, transparency, or surface finish. It features a compact M30 cylindrical housing that integrates a sophisticated LED display and a simple numerical “teach-in” process, allowing for rapid configuration of switching points directly on the device.

With its dual PNP switching outputs, the sensor can be configured for diverse tasks, including distance-to-object (DtO) monitoring, window mode operations, or background suppression. The unit is equipped with internal temperature compensation to maintain precision across varying ambient conditions and supports synchronization for up to 50 sensors to prevent crosstalk. Its robust IP67-rated enclosure ensures it remains operational in the presence of dust, dirt, or moisture, making it a versatile solution for level control, object detection, and collision avoidance. This sensor combines high resolution with industrial-grade durability, ensuring seamless integration into modern automated systems.

 

Key Performance Features

  • High Precision: Offers a resolution of ≥ 0.18 mm and a repeatability of ± 0.15% for consistent measurement accuracy.
  • Integrated Temperature Compensation: Maintains reliable performance despite fluctuations in ambient air temperature.
  • Flexible Programming: Features a 3-digit LED display and push-buttons for easy “Teach-in” of switching points and output logic.
  • Advanced Synchronization: Supports multiplexing and synchronization of up to 50 sensors to eliminate mutual interference in multi-sensor setups.
  • Adjustable Response Times: Operating frequency of 320 kHz with a fast response time of 32 ms.
  • Diverse Functions: Includes adjustable measurement filters, sensitivity settings, and foreground suppression for specialized detection areas.

 

 

Ideal Applications

  • Liquid Level Control: Monitoring levels in small tanks or containers where surface color or transparency varies.
  • Object Detection & Counting: Identifying dark, glossy, or clear objects on conveyor belts that optical sensors might miss.
  • Diameter Monitoring: Measuring the diameter of rolls or coils (e.g., paper, film, or metal) during winding processes.
  • Collision Avoidance: Serving as a proximity warning system for automated guided vehicles (AGVs) or robot arms.
  • Packaging Industry: Verifying the presence and positioning of items within trays or crates.
