IFM UGT525 is an IO-Link ultrasonic sensor using the UGB00800EOKG/IO-Link/US configuration for non-contact industrial object detection. Its published data specifies a rated sensing range of 60 to 800 mm with a 200 × 200 mm target, a 60 mm blind zone and IO-Link COM2 communication. The sensor also provides a switching output and supports configurable sensing functions. It is suitable for smart automation, conveyors, packaging and material handling applications.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
UGT525 combines ultrasonic sensing with IO-Link communication for modern industrial automation. The sensor detects objects through reflected ultrasonic signals rather than physical contact. IFM specifies a rated detection range of 60 to 800 mm for the stated 200 × 200 mm target. Its IO-Link interface enables integration with compatible IO-Link masters and automation controllers for configuration and sensor information.
The UGB00800EOKG/IO-Link/US configuration provides a switching output and IO-Link communication. IFM documentation specifies IO-Link COM2 communication at 38.4 kBaud and identifies programmable functions such as hysteresis/window operation, second switching point, timer functions and teach functionality. These capabilities allow the sensor to be configured for different automation requirements while providing digital communication with the control system.
UGT525 is suitable for object detection and distance-related automation tasks within its specified sensing range. Ultrasonic technology is useful for targets where colour or transparency can challenge optical sensors. The sensor provides configurable functions for machine control and includes temperature compensation according to the published data. It is suitable for conveyor systems, packaging, material handling and automated production equipment.
The sensor should be installed with the target positioned within the specified sensing area and outside the 60 mm blind zone. Proper alignment supports reliable echo detection. IO-Link communication allows the sensor to be integrated into smart automation systems. The published protection rating is IP67, while the specified operating ambient temperature is -20 to 70 °C.
