Description

BUS M18M1-GPXI-12/100-S92G-511 – ultrasonic sensor

Ultrasonic sensor BUS M18M1-GPXI-12/100-S92G-511 uses the reflection of sound pulses for non-contact evaluation of an object or distance. The declared working range is 120–1 300 mm; below its lower limit, measurement reliability cannot be assumed. Unlike the optical principle, the colour of the object is not decisive, but ultrasonic measurement is affected by the shape, inclination and acoustic reflectivity of the target.

What an ultrasonic sensor is and how it works

Ultrasonic sensor emits short sound pulses at a frequency above the limit of human hearing. It evaluates the distance or presence of the target from the delay of the reflection from the object. It does not require the object to be magnetic or metallic and, unlike optical sensors, is much less affected by the colour or transparency of the surface. It is therefore also used for plastics, packaging, bulk materials and, with suitable mounting, for level monitoring.

What the range means for this version

The specific model BUS M18M1-GPXI-12/100-S92G-511 measures in the range 120–1 300 mm. Objects at a distance less than 120 mm lie in the area close to the blind zone; the maximum declared distance is 1 300 mm. The range can be used for distance measurement on a machine, height checking and material monitoring.

Where this model is used

Conveyor lines: detecting the presence of a product or package without mechanical contact.
Kontrola polohy: measuring the distance and height of an object within the available range.
Handling and packaging: detection of plastic or transparent packaging depending on measuring conditions.

How the measurement information gets into the PLC

IO-Link 1.1 provides process data transmission and parameterisation via a compatible IO-Link master. The switching output PNP/NPN NO/NC contact push-pull can be used for point or window detection depending on the configuration. Do not interchange IO-Link generations 1.0 and 1.1 without checking the master, function blocks and ports.

How to choose and correctly use this variant

Measuring range: 120–1 300 mm; observe the minimum distance and the upper limit of the range.
Output: IO-Link 1.1 / PNP/NPN NO/NC contact push-pull.
Connector / cable: Connectors, connector M12 × 1, 5-pole; choose compatible accessories.

Important note for application design

Ultrasonic measurement has limitations: soft or inclined surfaces can absorb sound or reflect it away from the sensor. Foam, turbulence, strong air flow and simultaneous sensors can worsen measuring conditions. The manufacturer states the range for certain conditions; it is advisable to test the actual application.
