Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi UA30CAD35NGTI Ultrasonic Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi UA30CAD35NGTI is a robust M30 diffuse-reflective ultrasonic sensor with a 4–20 mA analogue output and configurable NPN switching output, designed for continuous non-contact distance measurement, level monitoring and object detection in industrial automation systems. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi UA30CAD series, it combines analogue measurement and digital switching functionality in a single industrial sensor.
The UA30CAD35NGTI provides a wide 250–3500 mm rated operating distance, with a blind zone of up to 250 mm. Its standard 4–20 mA analogue output can provide proportional measurement information to PLCs and process controllers, while the configurable NPN switching output supports direct machine-control and limit-detection functions.
Operating from a 12–30 V DC supply, the sensor features teach-in adjustment, a durable PBT housing and IP67 protection. The UA30CAD35NGTI is supplied with an integral 2 m cable and has an M30 × 90 mm cylindrical format, providing a practical solution for machinery, material handling and industrial process applications.

Reliable Analogue and Digital Ultrasonic Measurement
Ultrasonic sensors determine distance by transmitting high-frequency sound pulses towards a target and evaluating the returning echo. This non-contact principle enables the UA30CAD35NGTI to detect and measure many materials without depending on their colour or visual contrast, making ultrasonic sensing particularly useful where conventional optical detection may be unsuitable.
By combining a 4–20 mA analogue output with a configurable NPN switching output, the UA30CAD35NGTI can provide both continuous measurement data and discrete switching information from one sensing point. This makes it a versatile solution for level measurement, position monitoring, material handling and automated machine-control applications.
Typical Applications
- Continuous industrial distance measurement.
- Tank, hopper and container level monitoring.
- Material handling and conveyor systems.
- Object presence and position detection.
- Web, roll and diameter monitoring applications.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- PLC-based analogue measurement and switching systems.
