When it comes to reliable and accurate detection and measurement, look no further than the Autonics’ UTR Series Ultrasonic Sensors. These advanced sensors use high-frequency sound waves to detect and measure distances, providing unparalleled versatility and precision for a wide range of applications. 


Unmatched Detection Capability  

The UTR series ultrasonic sensors stand out with their ability to detect and measure a variety of materials and surfaces. Whether you’re dealing with transparent objects, metallic surfaces, powders, or liquids, the UTR series handles them all with ease. Say goodbye to the limitations posed by color, pattern, texture, or luster.

 

Impressive Sensing Distance  

With a maximum detection distance of up to 8 meters, the UTR series sensors are perfect for applications requiring long-range detection. Available in two mounting diameters—Ø18 mm for 120 to 1,300 mm and Ø30 mm for 600 to 8,000 mm—these sensors offer the flexibility to meet your specific needs.

 

High Accuracy with Temperature Compensation  

Temperature fluctuations can affect measurement accuracy, but not with the UTR series. Equipped with a temperature tracking algorithm, these sensors ensure stable and precise measurements even in varying environmental conditions. The auto and manual temperature compensation features further enhance measurement reliability.

Robust and Reliable Design  

Built with a 316L stainless steel body, the UTR series ultrasonic sensors are highly resistant to corrosion, making them ideal for use in challenging environments such as the food/beverage and pharmaceutical industries. Their IP67 protection structure ensures they can withstand harsh conditions without compromising performance.

 

User-Friendly Features  

The 360º ring type indicator provides visibility of the operation status from any direction, while the models with display panels show current and parameter set values for added convenience. The sensors support digital output (Push-Pull) and offer models with simultaneous digital and analog output.

 

Advanced Functionality for Optimal Performance  

The UTR series is packed with features designed to optimize detection. The detection width conversion function allows you to adjust the detection range according to your needs, while the measurement filter function helps avoid unwanted measurements. Additionally, the synchronization and multiplex functions enable the use of multiple sensors simultaneously, expanding the detection area and preventing mutual interference.

Easy Setup and Maintenance  

Configuring and monitoring the UTR series ultrasonic sensors is a breeze with the atDistance dedicated software. The intuitive graphical user interface simplifies the setup process, allowing you to customize parameters and monitor sensor information effortlessly. For real-time value monitoring, the optional ultrasonic sensor programming units (UT-P) provide a convenient solution.

 

Versatile Applications

  • Object Detection: Accurately detect the presence of objects, regardless of their transparency, color, or shape.
  • Space Detection: Monitor parking lot occupancy by detecting vehicle presence.
  • Break Detection: Detect breaks in materials such as film, pulp, and textiles.
  • Transparent Object Detection: Ensure the presence of transparent objects like glass on conveyor belts.
  • Crash Prevention: Prevent collisions by detecting objects in the path of AGVs or AMRs.
  • Stretch Measurement: Measure stretch or speed during tire or textile manufacturing processes.
