Pepperl + Fuchs UBE1000-18GM40-SE2-V1

The Pepperl + Fuchs UBE1000-18GM40-SE2-V1 is a state-of-the-art through-beam ultrasonic barrier designed for precise object detection and distance measurement in a variety of industrial applications. This compact sensor boasts a short design, measuring just 40 mm, and is equipped with function indicators that are visible from all directions, enhancing its ease of use and monitoring capabilities.

With a sensing range of 15 to 1000 mm and a standard target plate size of 100 mm x 100 mm, this ultrasonic barrier operates at a transducer frequency of approximately 255 kHz, ensuring accurate and reliable performance. The device is fitted with three LED indicators: green for power on, yellow for switching state, and red for error or object uncertainty, providing immediate visual feedback on the sensor's status.

The UBE1000-18GM40-SE2-V1 operates on a supply voltage of 10 to 30 V DC with a ripple of 10% SS and maintains a no-load supply current of less than or equal to 20 mA. It features a PNP, normally open (NO) output type, with a rated operating current of 200 mA, and is protected against short-circuits and overloads. The voltage drop across the device is less than or equal to 3 V, and it has a swift switch-on delay of less than 5 ms, coupled with a switching frequency of less than or equal to 100 Hz.

Constructed with a robust brass housing that is nickel-plated and a transducer made from an epoxy resin/hollow glass sphere mixture with a foam polyurethane cover, the sensor is designed to withstand harsh industrial environments. It has a protection degree of IP67, ensuring it is dust-tight and can handle temporary immersion in water, making it suitable for a wide range of operating conditions. The ambient operating temperature range is from -25 to 70 °C, and it can be stored at temperatures ranging from -40 to 85 °C.

The UBE1000-18GM40-SE2-V1 is compliant with EN IEC 60947-5-2:2020 and IEC 60947-5-2:2019 standards, and it has received EAC conformity along with UL and CCC approvals, ensuring its quality and reliability are recognised internationally.

This ultrasonic barrier is an ideal solution for applications requiring non-contact object detection, including automation, material handling, and process control, where precision, durability, and reliability are paramount.
