Description

The ultrasonic sensors of the UPS series are specially small, and they have a narrow detection beam. Thus they are well suited to detect objects in the near range up to 200mm and under confined conditions. The sensors are available as well as pure proximity switches as also as distance sensors with analogue mA or V output. The switch or measuring distances can be learned by a teach-in procedure. Typical applications are detection of objects and distance and level measurement.

UPS Series FB (Focus BEAM)

Miniature sensor with focusing device for smallest containers

The ultrasonic sensors series UPS FB are equipped with a focusing device made of glass-fibre reinforced polypropylene, which makes the sound beam particularly narrow. Therefore they are suitable in the near range up to 150mm to watch into narrow cavities. A typical application is measuring of liquid level in small tubes or containers.

UPS Series CP (chemically resistant)

Miniature sensor with chemically resistant head

The diaphragm of the series UPS 150 CP is coated with a thin PTFE foil. The head made of chemically resistant PVDF serves as mechanical fixation for the foil and protection of the sensor front part. Thus the front part of the ultrasonic sensor becomes resistant to most chemicals.
