Product Description

SICK UM18-218161101 Ultrasonic Distance Sensor – Precision & Reliability for Industrial Automation

Overview

The SICK UM18-218161101 (Order No.: 6048420) is a high-performance M18 cylindrical ultrasonic distance sensor from SICK’s UM18 series, engineered for precise, non-contact distance measurement and object detection in challenging industrial environments. Designed with a compact, robust form factor and advanced ultrasonic technology, it delivers exceptional accuracy, repeatability, and flexibility for automation, material handling, packaging, and logistics applications.

Key Features

  • Precision Sensing Range: Operating range 120 mm to 1,000 mm; limiting range up to 1,300 mm for versatile detection.
  • High Accuracy & Resolution: Resolution ≥ 0.2 mm, repeatability ± 0.15%, and measurement accuracy ± 1% for reliable readings.
  • Fast Response: 80 ms response time and 10 Hz switching frequency support high-speed automation cycles.
  • Multi-Mode Operation: Configurable for Distance to Object (DtO), Window (Wnd), or Object Between Sensor & Background (ObSB) via teach-in.
  • Robust Construction: IP65/IP67-rated PBT plastic housing (ultrasonic transducer: polyurethane foam/glass epoxy resin) for dust and water resistance.
  • Wide Temperature Tolerance: Operates reliably from -25°C to +70°C, ideal for harsh industrial settings.
  • Flexible Electrical Interface: 10–30 V DC supply, ≤ 1.2 W power consumption, PNP digital output (≤200 mA), and reverse-polarity/short-circuit protection.
  • Easy Integration: M18 × 1 thread, M12 4-pin male connector, and 15 g lightweight design for simple mounting in tight spaces.
  • Visual Status Indication: Two LEDs for power, output, and fault diagnostics.
