The IFM UGT203 ultrasonic sensor, model UG-01600GOKG/IO-LINK/US, is designed for reliable long-range non-contact object detection and distance measurement in industrial automation. Its ultrasonic sensing principle supports detection of different target materials without relying solely on colour or optical contrast. The IO-Link interface provides an intelligent communication option for parameterisation, diagnostics and process data exchange. The sensor is suitable for conveyors, material handling, packaging and automated production equipment.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The UGT203 is an industrial ultrasonic sensor designed for reliable distance and object detection. The model UG-01600GOKG/IO-LINK/US combines ultrasonic measurement with IO-Link communication for enhanced integration into modern automation systems. Its sensing technology allows objects to be detected without physical contact and can provide dependable operation with different target appearances. The sensor is suitable for industrial machines requiring flexible sensing and digital communication capabilities.
The sensor uses ultrasonic waves to determine the presence or position of a target within its sensing area. The UG-01600 family is designed around a 1600 mm sensing range class with a 200 x 200 mm reference target. IO-Link enables sensor configuration and communication with compatible control architectures. This makes the sensor suitable for applications requiring parameter access, process information and convenient integration into intelligent automation systems.
UGT203 is suitable for conveyor systems, automated material handling, packaging lines and machine positioning applications. It can be used to monitor object presence, detect changing distances and provide feedback for automated control functions. The sensor is particularly useful where target colour or visual appearance may vary. Its IO-Link capability also makes it suitable for connected automation systems where parameterisation and diagnostic information are valuable.
The UGT203 supports reliable industrial sensing with a combination of ultrasonic detection and IO-Link connectivity. Its non-contact principle allows continuous monitoring without physical contact with moving products. The long-range sensing capability provides flexibility for larger machine layouts and conveyor applications. IO-Link communication can simplify commissioning and provide additional sensor information to the automation system, supporting improved maintenance and process visibility.
