ua18cld20agm1tr – uprox dr rt pl m18 4-20ma plg
Carlo Gavazzi UA18CLD20AGM1TR M18 diffuse-reflective ultrasonic sensor with 200–2000 mm sensing range, adjustable 4–20 mA analogue output, remote teach functionality, 18–30 V DC supply and M12 connector.
Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi UA18CLD20AGM1TR Ultrasonic Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi UA18CLD20AGM1TR is an M18 diffuse-reflective ultrasonic sensor with remote teach and a 4–20 mA analogue output, designed for continuous non-contact distance and level measurement in industrial automation. Its ultrasonic operating principle enables dependable measurement of many target materials without relying on colour, transparency or visual contrast.
The UA18CLD20AGM1TR provides a 200–2000 mm sensing distance with an adjustable analogue output slope. Remote teach functionality allows the measurement range to be configured electrically, while the standard 4–20 mA current output enables proportional distance information to be transmitted directly to PLC analogue inputs, controllers and process-monitoring systems.
Operating from an 18–30 V DC supply, the sensor features a robust PBTP housing and IP67 protection rating for industrial environments. Its compact M18 × 93 mm format and M12 connector provide convenient installation, replacement and maintenance in machinery and automated production equipment.

Reliable Ultrasonic Measurement for Industrial Automation
Ultrasonic sensors measure distance by transmitting high-frequency sound towards a target and evaluating the returning echo. Since measurement is based on sound rather than visible light, the technology is particularly useful for applications involving transparent, reflective, dark or visually inconsistent materials that can present difficulties for conventional optical sensors.
The UA18CLD20AGM1TR converts measured target distance into a standard 4–20 mA analogue signal, enabling continuous position or level information to be processed by PLCs and industrial controllers. Its extended 200–2000 mm range, adjustable output slope and remote teach capability provide flexibility for machine-building, material-handling and process-monitoring applications.
Typical Applications
- Continuous distance measurement in automated machinery.
- Tank, hopper and container level monitoring.
- Object positioning and presence measurement.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- PLC-based analogue measurement and process monitoring.
- Machine building and factory automation systems.
