IFM UGT524 is an ultrasonic sensor with UGB00300EOKG/IO-Link/US configuration designed for non-contact object detection and smart automation integration. The sensor uses ultrasonic technology and provides a switching output with IO-Link communication. This allows conventional detection as well as digital device communication for configuration and process information. It is suitable for industrial automation, packaging, conveyors, material handling and machine monitoring where reliable sensing and advanced diagnostic or parameterisation capabilities are required.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
UGT524 combines ultrasonic object detection with IO-Link connectivity. Ultrasonic sensing allows the sensor to detect targets without physical contact and with reduced dependence on colour or transparency. IO-Link adds a digital communication interface that can be used with compatible automation systems. This combination makes the sensor suitable for modern machines where sensing, parameterisation and device communication are integrated into the control architecture.
The UGB00300EOKG/IO-Link/US model provides a switching output together with IO-Link communication. IFM documentation shows a three-wire connection arrangement with L+, OUT and L− connections. The sensor uses ultrasonic echo detection to identify targets. Its IO-Link capability provides a structured interface for connecting the sensor to compatible industrial controllers and IO-Link masters.
UGT524 is suitable for automated object detection where digital communication is beneficial. It can be used in conveyors, packaging equipment, material handling and production machinery. Ultrasonic technology provides non-contact sensing for different target materials, while IO-Link supports modern machine integration. The combination allows the sensor to become part of a more connected automation system with improved configuration and device-level information.
UGT524 should be positioned so that the ultrasonic sensing path reaches the target effectively. The three-wire connection and IO-Link interface support integration with compatible control equipment. Correct alignment and suitable target positioning are important for stable sensing. Its combination of ultrasonic detection and IO-Link communication makes it useful for smart factory applications where sensor configuration and process data are important.
