Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi UA18CLD05PPTR Ultrasonic Sensor?

The Carlo Gavazzi UA18CLD05PPTR is an M18 diffuse-reflective ultrasonic proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact object detection and level-control applications in industrial automation. Its adjustable 60–500 mm sensing range makes it well suited to short- and medium-range applications where dependable detection is required without physical contact with the target.

Featuring two PNP transistor outputs with configurable NO/NC operation, the UA18CLD05PPTR provides flexible switching for integration with PLCs and industrial control equipment. Remote Teach functionality allows the sensor's switching behaviour to be configured for the application, while the integral 2 m cable provides a straightforward hard-wired connection.

The sensor is housed in a compact M18 × 93 mm PBTP housing and operates from a 12–30 VDC supply. With IP67 protection, short-circuit, reverse-polarity and transient protection, and an operating temperature range of -15°C to +70°C, it provides a robust ultrasonic sensing solution for industrial machinery and automated processes.

Reliable Ultrasonic Detection and Level Control

Ultrasonic sensors detect objects by transmitting high-frequency sound pulses and evaluating the returning echo. Because detection is based on sound rather than visible light, the UA18CLD05PPTR can detect many objects without relying on their colour or optical contrast, providing a useful alternative to conventional photoelectric sensing.

The UA18CLD05PPTR combines a 60–500 mm adjustable sensing range with dual PNP outputs and remote configuration, allowing it to support several switching arrangements and level-control tasks. Its compact M18 format, integral cable and IP67 protection make it suitable for integration into industrial machinery, handling equipment and automated production systems.

Typical Applications

• Object presence and position detection.
• Container and vessel level control.
• Packaging and production machinery.
• Material handling and conveyor systems.
• Assembly and automated manufacturing equipment.
• Applications involving targets with difficult optical characteristics.
