These sensors are easy and flexible to use
Thanks to an adjustable sound cone and small dead zone, the new ultrasonic sensors of the 420B and 412B Series can be used for many different applications. The new ultrasonic sensors are available as switching (HTU) or measuring (DMU) sensors. The sound cone can be set via an IO-Link interface to narrow, medium or wide ranges, and thus adapted to the respective application. They are able to detect reliably in situations where optical sensors are pushed to their limits. They also detect glossy, reflective, very dark or transparent surfaces, as well as liquids without problem. HTU420B ultrasonic sensors are suitable for challenging detection tasks. For example, two fill levels can be detected or two positions can be monitored simultaneously. Moreover, to measure distances, system operators can make use of the DMU420B and DMU412B ultrasonic distance sensors. — Leuze Electronic, Inc., Duluth, Ga.
