Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi UA30CAD35PKM1TI Ultrasonic Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi UA30CAD35PKM1TI is a robust M30 diffuse-reflective ultrasonic sensor with a 0–10 V analogue output and configurable PNP 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 proportional analogue measurement and discrete switching functionality within a single compact industrial sensor.
The UA30CAD35PKM1TI provides a wide 250–3500 mm sensing range and features a programmable PNP output that can be configured for NO or NC switching operation. Its 0–10 V analogue output provides continuous measurement information for PLCs and process controllers, while teach-in adjustment allows the required sensing points to be configured for the application.
Operating from a 15–30 V DC supply, the sensor features a durable PBT cylindrical housing, IP67 protection rating and an M12 connector. With a maximum switching frequency of 2 Hz and operating temperature range from -20°C to +70°C, it is suitable for demanding machine-building, material-handling and industrial process applications.

Reliable Analogue and Digital Ultrasonic Measurement
Ultrasonic sensors measure distance by transmitting high-frequency sound towards a target and evaluating the returning echo. This non-contact sensing method enables dependable measurement of many materials regardless of their colour or visual contrast, making ultrasonic technology particularly useful for transparent, reflective and visually inconsistent targets.
The UA30CAD35PKM1TI combines a proportional 0–10 V analogue output with a programmable PNP switching output, allowing continuous measurement and discrete control functions to be obtained from the same sensing point. Its wide measurement range and teach-in configuration make it well suited to distance measurement, level monitoring, diameter measurement and loop-control applications.
Typical Applications
- Continuous industrial distance measurement.
- Tank, hopper and container level monitoring.
- Material handling and conveyor systems.
- Object presence and position detection.
- Roll diameter and web-loop monitoring.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- PLC-based analogue measurement and switching systems.
