The Pepperl+Fuchs UB6000-30GM-E5-V15 ultrasonic sensor is designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern industrial automation by offering reliable and accurate detection across a wide range of applications. With a maximum sensing distance of 6,000 mm, this sensor provides excellent versatility, making it suitable for detecting objects both close to and far from the sensor face. Unlike optical sensors that may struggle with reflective, transparent, or dark-colored objects, ultrasonic technology ensures dependable detection regardless of the material, surface finish, or color of the target. This makes it particularly valuable in environments where traditional optical solutions may be limited or prone to false triggers.

The UB6000-30GM-E5-V15 is engineered with a cylindrical M30 housing, offering not only mechanical robustness but also compatibility with standard mounting hardware. The rugged metal body provides durability and resistance to industrial wear, enabling it to withstand exposure to dust, vibration, and harsh environmental conditions commonly found in factory automation, material handling, and logistics operations. This robust design, combined with high performance, allows the sensor to operate reliably even in challenging industrial environments where reliability and consistency are critical.

Installation and integration are simplified with the inclusion of a standard V15 connector, allowing for quick wiring and easy connection into existing automation systems. This flexibility ensures reduced setup time and maintenance efforts, improving overall operational efficiency. The sensor’s design emphasizes ease of use, making it suitable for both new system installations and retrofitting into existing setups. By combining plug-and-play convenience with industrial-grade durability, the UB6000-30GM-E5-V15 enhances productivity while minimizing downtime.

In practical use, the UB6000 excels in applications such as level measurement in tanks or silos, object detection on conveyor systems, and presence monitoring in packaging or assembly lines. Its ultrasonic measurement principle makes it immune to environmental conditions like dust, smoke, or ambient light, which often interfere with optical sensing methods. As a result, it provides dependable operation in industries such as food and beverage, automotive, logistics, and general manufacturing. With its long detection range, rugged housing, and reliable ultrasonic performance, the Pepperl+Fuchs UB6000-30GM-E5-V15 is an essential solution for applications where precision, reliability, and robustness are paramount.
