The Siemens SIMATIC Series Sonar Sensor is a state-of-the-art sensing solution designed for precise proximity detection in a variety of industrial applications. With its compact, barrel-shaped form factor and an M18 thread, this sensor is engineered to seamlessly integrate into existing systems. It boasts a sensing range of 150 to 1000 mm, ensuring versatility across different operational requirements.
Crafted with a robust brass nickel-plated housing, the sensor is built to withstand challenging industrial environments, maintaining a high degree of reliability and durability. It features an analog output with a 4 to 20 mA signal, providing accurate and continuous feedback on the detected range. The sensor's resolution is finely tuned to 12 bits, which translates to 4095 discrete steps, allowing for precise measurement and control.
The unit operates on a 24 V DC power supply and is designed to be energy-efficient, with a maximum no-load supply current of 60 mA. It also includes a range of electrical protections such as reverse voltage protection, wire breakage protection, and inductive overvoltage suppression, ensuring stable operation even in electrically noisy environments.
For ease of installation, the sensor comes with a connector M12, 4-pole, allowing for quick and secure electrical connections. It is also designed to be mounted in any position, providing flexibility in installation and ensuring optimal performance regardless of orientation.
With an operating temperature range of -25 to +70 degrees Celsius, the Siemens SIMATIC Series Sonar Sensor is suitable for use in a wide range of ambient conditions. Its IP67 rating certifies that it is dust-tight and can withstand immersion in water, making it an ideal choice for applications where exposure to the elements is a concern.
This sensor is a reliable choice for engineers and technicians looking for a high-quality proximity sensing solution that combines flexibility, precision, and durability.
