IFM UGT526 is an ultrasonic sensor with UGB01200EOKG/IO-Link/US configuration designed for non-contact industrial object detection and smart automation integration. The model provides a switching output together with IO-Link communication, allowing the sensor to exchange digital information with compatible automation systems. Ultrasonic sensing provides reliable detection without physical contact and is suitable for challenging surfaces. It can be used in conveyors, packaging, material handling and automated production systems.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
UGT526 combines ultrasonic object detection with IO-Link communication for industrial automation. The sensor evaluates reflected ultrasonic waves to detect targets without physical contact. Its IO-Link interface supports connection to compatible IO-Link masters and provides a modern communication method for sensor configuration and process information. This makes the sensor suitable for machines requiring both reliable detection and digital sensor integration.
The UGB01200EOKG/IO-Link/US configuration provides a switching output and IO-Link interface. The sensor can therefore function as a conventional switching device while also communicating with an automation controller through IO-Link. This combination supports modern machine architectures where sensors are digitally connected. Ultrasonic detection allows the device to identify objects without depending primarily on visual target properties.
UGT526 is suited to automated object detection and monitoring tasks. It can be installed in packaging machines, conveyors, material handling equipment and production systems. Ultrasonic technology provides a flexible sensing method for different target materials, while IO-Link provides additional digital connectivity. The sensor can therefore contribute to more connected and configurable automation installations.
UGT526 should be mounted with an appropriate ultrasonic path toward the target. Proper alignment helps ensure reliable echo detection and stable switching. The IO-Link interface simplifies integration into compatible smart automation networks. Its combination of non-contact sensing and digital communication makes it useful for modern industrial equipment where reliable object detection and sensor-level connectivity are required.
