The Schneider Electric Telemecanique SM956A400003 is an analog ultrasonic proximity sensor designed for precise distance measurement in automated industrial environments. This sensor utilizes high-frequency sound waves to detect objects, providing reliable performance irrespective of surface color, transparency, or texture. Its analog output facilitates integration into control systems requiring continuous distance feedback.

Technical Details

• Series: Superprox
• Output Type: Analog
• Output Signal: 4-20 mA
• Sensing Technology: Ultrasonic
• Detection Principle: Sound wave reflection
• Immunity to: Object color, transparency, and surface texture
