PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
IFM UGT304 - Ultrasonic Proximity Sensor
This is an ultrasonic proximity sensor from the IFM UGT series, engineered for non-contact detection and precise distance measurement of objects in industrial automation. It utilizes sound wave propagation for reliable sensing, independent of object color, transparency, or surface texture, making it suitable for level control, material handling, and presence detection in challenging environments. The sensor integrates both configurable analog and switching outputs for versatile integration into PLC and control systems.
