Cylindrical Compact Housing

All-metal ultrasonic sensors with a compact cylindrical design are specially designed for use in harsh and demanding environments. The stainless steel housing in hygienic design is hermetically sealed (IP68/IP69K), easy to clean and meets the highest hygiene requirements. FDA compliance makes them ideal for applications in the pharmaceutical, food and chemical industries.

Threaded Housing M18

Ultrasonic sensors in robust stainless steel housing with M18 thread offer high stability and durability in harsh industrial environments. The IP67 degree of protection reliably protects them against dust and moisture. Synchronous, multiplex and through-beam mode enable flexible applications, while tool-free assembly ensures fast and efficient installation.

Threaded Housing M30

Ultrasonic sensors in the M30 threaded housing offer reliable performance and robust design. They are easy to mount and, thanks to their long ranges, also enable precise measurements in the far range. Thanks to their wide range of applications, they are ideal for numerous applications in the automated industry.

Miniature Cuboid Housing

Miniature ultrasonic sensors in cuboid design offer the highest precision in the smallest of spaces. Thanks to their compact design, they are particularly suitable for tight spaces and low installation depths. Simple parameterization of the analog and digital outputs enables quick initial startup, while the low blind spot ensures reliable measurement even in the immediate vicinity of the sensor.

Compact Cuboid Housing

Ultrasonic sensors in the compact cuboid design enable convenient adjustment directly at the sensor via the integrated display or alternatively via IO-Link. They are characterized by long ranges, excellent background suppression and high immunity to interference. Thanks to their versatility, they can be used flexibly in a wide range of applications. 

Fork Housing

Thanks to their functional principle, ultrasonic fork sensors are ideally suited for precise and contactless label recognition. The emitter and the receiver are arranged as a light barrier in a shared housing and detect even the smallest changes in ultrasound attenuation. This allows them to reliably detect whether or not a label is present on the label material.
