Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi UA18CLD08AGTR Ultrasonic Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi UA18CLD08AGTR is a compact M18 diffuse-reflective ultrasonic sensor with a 4–20 mA analogue output, designed for continuous non-contact distance and level measurement in industrial automation applications. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi UA18CL series, it combines ultrasonic sensing technology with remote teach functionality for flexible configuration in machinery and process-control systems.
The UA18CLD08AGTR provides a 100–800 mm sensing range with an adjustable analogue output slope. Because ultrasonic sensing operates using reflected sound rather than visible light, the sensor can detect many objects regardless of their colour, transparency or surface appearance, making it suitable for applications where conventional photoelectric sensing may be less effective.
With a 4–20 mA analogue current output, the sensor can provide proportional distance information to PLC analogue inputs, controllers and monitoring equipment. Its robust PBT M18 housing, IP67 protection rating and integral 2 m cable make it well suited to demanding factory automation and machine-building environments.

Reliable Ultrasonic Measurement for Industrial Automation
Ultrasonic sensors measure distance by transmitting high-frequency sound pulses towards a target and evaluating the returning echo. This non-contact operating principle enables reliable measurement of a wide variety of materials and is particularly useful when target colour, transparency or visual contrast makes optical sensing difficult.
The UA18CLD08AGTR converts target distance into a standard 4–20 mA analogue signal, enabling continuous measurement information to be processed by PLCs, controllers and other industrial equipment. Remote teach adjustment and an adjustable output slope allow the sensor to be configured around the required measurement range without mechanical contact with the target.
Typical Applications
- Continuous distance measurement in automated machinery.
- Tank, hopper and container level monitoring.
- Object position and presence measurement.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- PLC-based analogue measurement and monitoring.
- Machine building and factory automation systems.
