Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
UGT208 is designed to provide reliable ultrasonic detection for industrial machines and automated systems. Non-contact ultrasonic sensing allows the sensor to detect objects without depending strongly on colour, transparency or surface appearance. This provides a practical alternative for applications where optical sensing may be challenging.
The long-range sensing design makes UGT208 suitable for monitoring objects across extended machine distances. It can support presence detection, position monitoring and distance-related control in automated equipment. Ultrasonic technology provides consistent sensing for many different industrial target materials.
IO-Link enables communication between the sensor and automation controller while supporting parameterisation and diagnostic information. Programmable sensor functions allow machine builders to configure switching behaviour according to process requirements. This provides flexibility during commissioning and future machine adjustments.
UGT208 is suitable for conveyor systems, material handling, packaging machinery and production equipment. Its threaded housing allows practical installation, while ultrasonic sensing supports reliable non-contact detection. The sensor can be integrated into modern industrial automation systems requiring flexible configuration and process information.
