Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi UC80CND60AKM1TR Ultrasonic Sensor?

The Carlo Gavazzi UC80CND60AKM1TR is a self-contained diffuse reflective ultrasonic sensor with 0–10 V DC analogue output, designed for accurate non-contact distance measurement and level monitoring in industrial automation applications. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi UC80CND ultrasonic sensor series, it combines a long 600–6000 mm sensing distance, remote teach functionality and microprocessor-controlled signal processing in a robust 80 × 80 mm housing.

Using true ultrasonic distance measurement, the UC80CND60AKM1TR transmits high-frequency sound pulses towards a target and evaluates the returning echo. Its digitally filtered electronics provide precise measurement, while integrated temperature compensation helps maintain consistent performance as ambient conditions change. The analogue output can be configured with positive or negative slope to suit different distance and level measurement requirements.

With a rated operating distance of 600–6000 mm, a 0–10 V DC analogue output and a 15–30 V DC supply, the UC80CND60AKM1TR is particularly suited to level control in tanks and vessels, continuous distance measurement and industrial positioning. Remote teach by wire, a 5-pin M12 plug and IP65 protection simplify integration into industrial automation equipment.

Precise Analogue Ultrasonic Measurement

Ultrasonic sensors measure distance by transmitting high-frequency sound pulses towards a target and calculating distance from the returning echo. This non-contact principle makes the Carlo Gavazzi UC80CND60AKM1TR particularly useful for continuous level and distance measurement where mechanical contact with the target material is undesirable.

The UC80CND60AKM1TR allows two measuring points to be established through teach-in, with the 0–10 V DC output configured for either positive or negative slope. This enables the analogue signal to increase or decrease with measured distance according to the requirements of the control system, providing flexible integration with PLC analogue inputs and industrial process controllers.

• Tank and vessel level measurement.
• Liquid and bulk material monitoring.
• Continuous industrial distance measurement.
• Object position monitoring.
• Conveyor and material handling systems.
• Packaging and production machinery.
• Process monitoring and control systems.
• OEM machinery and industrial automation equipment.
