IFM UGT581 is an ultrasonic sensor with UGQ00300E2KG/US configuration designed for non-contact object detection in industrial automation. It belongs to the same compact UGQ ultrasonic sensor family as UGT580 and is intended for reliable detection of industrial targets. Ultrasonic technology provides a practical sensing method that is less dependent on object colour and transparency. The sensor is suitable for machine automation, packaging, material handling, conveyors and production systems requiring dependable object monitoring.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
UGT581 is designed for ultrasonic object detection where non-contact sensing is required. The sensor evaluates ultrasonic reflections from a target and uses the resulting information for machine control. Its compact construction supports integration into industrial equipment. The sensor family is intended for applications where conventional optical detection may be affected by target appearance or surface characteristics.
The UGQ00300E2KG/US configuration uses ultrasonic sensing for object detection and provides an industrial electrical interface. The sensor can be positioned toward a target and used to generate detection information for connected automation equipment. Ultrasonic sensing allows the device to operate without physically touching the object. This makes it suitable for moving products and automated machine processes.
UGT581 is suitable for object presence and position monitoring in compact automation systems. It can be used in conveyors, packaging machines and material-handling equipment. Ultrasonic sensing provides a flexible method for detecting different types of industrial targets. The sensor can support machine sequencing by providing detection information whenever an object enters the configured sensing area.
The sensor should be installed with suitable alignment toward the target. The compact threaded sensor construction allows it to be integrated into machine structures where installation space is limited. Correct positioning supports stable ultrasonic echo detection. Its non-contact operation reduces mechanical interaction with moving products and supports continuous operation in automated production environments.
