IFM UGT580 is an ultrasonic sensor with UGQ00300E1KG/US configuration designed for non-contact object detection in industrial automation. Published IFM documentation identifies a PNP electrical design, programmable normally open/normally closed output, 40 to 300 mm operating range for a 100 × 100 mm object, M12 connector and M18 threaded housing. The sensor includes teach-in functionality and LED status indication, making it suitable for compact machine automation and object-monitoring applications.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
UGT580 provides compact ultrasonic detection for industrial applications requiring non-contact object sensing. Its operating principle uses ultrasonic waves to detect targets without physical contact. IFM specifies an operating range of 40 to 300 mm for a 100 × 100 mm object. The sensor uses a threaded M18 housing and includes a teach-in function, allowing practical setup for machine automation and object detection tasks.
The UGQ00300E1KG/US model uses PNP electrical design and provides a programmable normally open or normally closed output. IFM specifies an M12 connector and an M18 threaded housing. The sensor includes separate LED indications for echo and output status, together with a teach-in button. These features assist with installation, commissioning and monitoring during industrial operation.
UGT580 is suitable for compact industrial object-detection applications within its specified 40–300 mm operating range. Ultrasonic sensing provides non-contact detection and can be used for many different target materials. The sensor is useful in automated machines, material handling, packaging and production equipment. Programmable output functionality provides flexibility when configuring the sensor for machine-control requirements.
The M18 threaded housing supports mechanical installation in compatible machine designs, while the M12 connector provides a practical electrical interface. The teach-in function assists with sensor setup, and LED indicators provide visible status information. The stainless-steel 630/1.4542/17-4 PH material is specified in IFM documentation for the relevant construction. These features support reliable installation and maintenance in industrial environments.
