Elobau ultrasonic sensors

The principle of ultrasonic technology is as simple as it is effective. High-frequency ultrasonic sound waves are emitted by the sensor, which are then reflected by the target object, and detected again by the sensor. The distance is then calculated from the elapsed time. This position can not only be used to measure distances, but also to determine the position of objects. This makes the ultrasonic sensor extremely versatile and can be used to suit the individual needs of the customer. 

Fits everywhere. Three different cylindrical designs ensure effortless integration into every machine environment. In addition, the various operating modes of the sensors in combination with different analogue and digital outputs offer the right solution for nearly every possible application. Synchronisation and multiplexing serve to prevent crosstalk between the sensors, thereby guaranteeing trouble-free operation even in applications with limited installation space. Compliance with the ATEX guideline expands the already broad range of applications into the field of potentially explosive areas. 

Integrated LEDs help the user quickly detect the echo and switching state. The simple and fast configuration with IO-Link, teach-in button or wire saves time and costs. 

Elobau ultrasonic sensors are IO-Link compatible and, therefore, “Industry 4.0 ready”.
