UGT204 is an IFM IO-Link ultrasonic sensor designed for long-range, non-contact object detection and distance monitoring. It provides a sensing range of 150 to 1600 mm with a 200 x 200 mm reference target and supports programmable sensor functions through IO-Link. The M18 threaded housing allows straightforward machine installation. Its configurable switching behaviour, analogue output capability and diagnostic communication make it suitable for advanced automation and process-monitoring applications.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
UGT204 combines ultrasonic sensing with IO-Link communication for flexible industrial automation. The sensor detects objects without physical contact, allowing it to work with targets whose colour or surface appearance may vary. Its long detection range makes it suitable for machine applications where conventional short-range sensing is insufficient.
The sensor provides a sensing range of 150 to 1600 mm using the specified 200 x 200 mm target. Ultrasonic sensing enables reliable distance-related detection and helps maintain stable performance across different target appearances. It is useful for object positioning, presence monitoring and material-handling applications.
IO-Link provides a convenient communication channel for sensor configuration, diagnostics and process information. Parameter options include switching behaviour, timing and teach functions. This allows machine builders to configure the sensor according to individual application requirements and simplifies commissioning and maintenance.
UGT204 uses an M18 threaded housing for practical installation in industrial machinery. Its configurable outputs and analogue signal capabilities support integration into automated control systems. The sensor is suitable for production equipment, conveyor systems and process-monitoring applications requiring flexible ultrasonic detection.
