Ultrasonic sensors with analog output, specifically the DATALOGIC US18 series, are precision measurement devices designed for non-contact distance sensing in industrial automation. These sensors operate by emitting high-frequency sound waves (typically in the ultrasonic range) and measuring the time-of-flight to detect objects, converting this into a continuous analog signal (e.g., 4-20 mA or 0-10 V). The US18 series features a compact cylindrical housing (M18 thread), making them ideal for tight spaces. Key technical parameters include sensing ranges from 30 mm to 800 mm, resolution down to 0.1 mm, and response times as low as 50 ms. They are available in various output configurations, such as current or voltage, and offer temperature compensation for stable performance across environments. These sensors are often referred to as analog proximity sensors, ultrasonic distance transducers, or continuous level sensors in different markets.
These sensors are widely deployed in sectors requiring precise, non-contact measurement, including packaging, material handling, automotive assembly, and process automation. Common applications include level monitoring in tanks (liquids or solids), object presence detection on conveyor belts, loop control in web processing, and distance measurement for robotic guidance. They are particularly suited for harsh environments with dust, moisture, or light interference, where optical sensors may fail. The US18 series can be integrated into PLC systems via analog input modules, making them a staple in factory automation and industrial IoT setups.
The primary subcategories within this range include the US18 series with different analog output types (current or voltage) and sensing ranges. Key article codes often follow a pattern like US18S-xxxx or US18L-xxxx, where 'S' denotes standard range and 'L' long range. For example, the US18S-400A offers a 400 mm range with analog current output, while the US18L-800V provides an 800 mm range with voltage output. These sensors are typically ordered by specifying the output type, range, and connection (e.g., M12 connector or cable). Accessories like mounting brackets and reflectors are available but not part of the core sensor category.
