Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi UA30CAD60NPM1TI Ultrasonic Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi UA30CAD60NPM1TI is a multifunction M30 diffuse-reflective ultrasonic sensor with two NPN switching outputs, designed for long-range non-contact object detection, level control and position monitoring in industrial automation systems. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi UA30CAD series, it combines a wide sensing range with flexible teach-in configuration for demanding machine-building and process applications.
With a rated sensing distance of 350–6000 mm, the UA30CAD60NPM1TI is particularly suitable for applications requiring extended detection distances. Its two multifunction NPN outputs can be configured for different switching modes and set points, allowing one sensor to perform flexible control and monitoring functions.
The sensor operates from a 12–30 V DC supply and features a durable PBT housing, IP67 / NEMA 4X protection and an M12 connector. Integrated temperature compensation, teach-in adjustment and short-circuit, reverse-polarity and overvoltage protection support reliable operation in industrial environments.

Flexible Long-Range Ultrasonic Detection
Ultrasonic sensors detect objects by transmitting high-frequency sound waves and evaluating the returning echo. Because this measurement principle does not depend on visible light, the UA30CAD60NPM1TI can detect many objects and materials regardless of colour, transparency or surface appearance, making it suitable for applications where conventional optical sensing can be difficult.
The UA30CAD60NPM1TI combines a 350–6000 mm operating range with two independently useful NPN switching outputs and teach-in configuration. The outputs can be configured for different control functions, making the sensor particularly effective for vessel level control, presence detection, position monitoring and other automation applications requiring multiple switching points.
Typical Applications
- Tank, hopper and vessel level control.
- Long-range object presence detection.
- Material handling and conveyor systems.
- Object position and distance monitoring.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Warehouse and automated handling equipment.
- Machine building and factory automation.
- Applications requiring two ultrasonic switching points from one sensor.
