Ultrasonic sensors

Ultrasonic sensors are used whenever optical systems reach their limits. Hence, partially and fully transparent or extremely dark objects can be detected just as easily as objects with reflecting surfaces or objects in dusty, vaporous or humid environments.

Flexible and precise: Ultrasonic sensors with adjustable sound cone

New cubic ultrasonic sensors with small dead zone and three adjustable sound cone widths for precise switching and measurement results

Ultrasonic sensors are used in many industries. They detect objects almost irrespective of their material characteristics. Ultrasonic sensors have proven effective even with glossy, reflective, extremely dark or transparent surfaces as well as with liquids and solve challenges where optical sensors reach their limits.

The new 420B series includes switching and measuring ultrasonic sensors in compact cubic plastic housings. With the HTU 420B ultrasonic sensors in the standard segment featuring one switching output (push-pull), we offer an economical solution in black plastic housings.

The HTU 420B ultrasonic sensors in red housings with their IO-Link interface and two switching outputs are suitable for demanding detection tasks. The adjustable sound cone enables extremely flexible use of the sensors and minimizes the number of different variants required in the system: One sensor type can be used for different applications. With a narrow sound cone, it is possible to detect fill levels through small openings, for example. A wide sound cone is suitable for e.g. reliably detecting diffusely reflective objects such as products with an uneven or complex surface or structure. An interruption filter detects brief changes in measurement within a certain interval caused by interfering objects (e.g. agitators) and can suppress interfering signals. Two independent switching outputs enable two positions to be monitored or two fill levels to be detected.
