Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi UA30CAD60NGTI Ultrasonic Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi UA30CAD60NGTI is a long-range M30 diffuse-reflective ultrasonic sensor designed for continuous distance measurement and object detection in industrial automation applications. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi UA30CAD series, it combines an analogue current output with a configurable NPN digital switching output for flexible integration into PLC and machine-control systems.
The UA30CAD60NGTI provides a wide 350–6000 mm sensing range with a blind zone of up to 350 mm. It features a 4–20 mA analogue output together with an NPN digital switching output, enabling continuous measurement and discrete switching functionality from the same sensor.
Operating from a 12–30 V DC supply, this cable-connected version features a durable M30 PBT housing with a Ø40 mm front and an integral 2 m cable. Teach-in adjustment, IP67 environmental protection and built-in electrical protection support reliable operation in demanding distance, level and process-control applications.

Reliable Long-Range Ultrasonic Measurement
The Carlo Gavazzi UA30CAD60NGTI detects target position by transmitting ultrasonic pulses and evaluating the returning echo. Because measurement is based on sound rather than visible light, the sensor can be used with many materials regardless of variations in colour, contrast or optical appearance.
Its 4–20 mA analogue output provides continuous measurement information for compatible PLC analogue inputs and process controllers, while the NPN switching output provides an additional discrete control signal. This combination makes the sensor well suited to applications requiring both measurement and switching from a single device.
Typical Applications
- Tank, hopper and vessel level measurement.
- Continuous distance and position monitoring.
- Roll and reel diameter measurement.
- Loop-control applications.
- Packaging and material handling machinery.
- Conveyor and automated production systems.
- Industrial process-control applications.
- PLC systems requiring both 4–20 mA measurement and NPN switching.
