The Schneider Electric Telemecanique SM600A31200S Superprox Ultrasonic Proximity Sensor provides non-contact object detection for industrial automation systems. This sensor is part of the Superprox series, designed for reliable performance in demanding environments. Its ultrasonic technology enables detection of a wide range of materials and surface finishes.

Technical details

• Series: Superprox
• Technology: Ultrasonic Proximity Sensing
• Detection Method: Non-contact
• Output Type: Typically a discrete output (verify specific model configuration against manufacturer datasheet for PNP/NPN and NO/NC configuration)
• Operating Principle: Emits ultrasonic pulses and measures the time for echoes to return, determining distance and presence of objects.
• Environmental Rating: Suitable for industrial environments (verify specific IP rating and operating temperature range against manufacturer datasheet).
• Power Requirements: Typically operates on a DC voltage supply (verify specific voltage range, e.g., 12-24VDC, against manufacturer datasheet).
• Sensing Range: Varies based on target object size, material, and reflectivity; consult manufacturer datasheet for specific range capabilities.

Applications & compatibility

This ultrasonic proximity sensor is suitable for applications requiring reliable object detection where photoelectric or inductive sensors may not be ideal, such as detecting transparent objects, liquids, or irregularly shaped items. Common uses include level sensing in tanks, presence detection on conveyor belts, collision avoidance in robotics, and monitoring fill levels in packaging machinery.
