Washdown Sensors
The cleaning-resistant sensors are ideal for use in spraying applications in the food, beverage and packaging industries. Neither spraying water nor significant temperature changes impair the function of the robust wenglor sensors.

Portfolio
Ultrasonic sensors are available in different variants depending on the intended use. Sensors with variable working ranges, switching frequencies, interfaces, protection or connection types are available as cubic or metric formats, through to fork shapes. This page provides a comprehensive overview of the entire ultrasonic portfolio.

Ultrasonic Sensors Product Highlights
Ultrasonic sensors operate according to the bat principle: They emit short sound pulses and measure the runtime of the echo. They are insensitive to contamination and environmental influences. Ultrasonic sensors detect objects or liquids regardless of dirt, dust, mist or ambient light

Product Highlights U2GT
The new full-metal ultrasonic sensors in a high-grade stainless steel housing are extremely robust with a hygienic design. The hygiene sensors are optimized for measurement and detection tasks and are used both in the hygiene area and in the washdown area.

wenglor Presents Numerous New Products at SPS
Tettnang/Nuremberg – The wenglor sensoric group will be presenting a whole range of new products in the fields of sensor technology and machine vision at the international trade fair for industrial automation SPS. The product portfolio expansion with Industrial RFID, the inductive ring sensors with separable housing and new 2D/3D profile sensors will be available to experience in Nuremberg, among other things. In addition to the wealth of innovations, the open, redesigned trade fair concept also makes a strong impression. One particular highlight is the integration of two robot cells, which provide exciting insights into the capabilities of the MLZL 2D/3D profile sensor and the B60 smart camera.  With Industrial RFID, wenglor is expanding its portfolio to include smart identification solutions with RFID. The new RFID readers enable a quick and reliable identification solution in the near field. In the sensors product area, the new inductive ring sensors with separable housing, which enable quick and easy replacement of the sensors without mechanical work and detect small metal parts in feed hoses precisely, are also impressive. The full-metal U2GT ultrasonic sensors also impress with their IP68/IP69K degree of protection for washdown and hygienic applications. Thanks to their location-independent detection, the new reflex light barriers in the PNG//smart series make a wide range of applications possible without an additional reflector. It is also worth taking a closer look at the triangulation laser distance sensors from the P3 series for maximum precision in the micrometer range and temperature-stable measured values. The wenglor sensoric group’s portfolio presented at SPS will also leave a lasting impression in the field of machine vision. The new 2D/3D profile sensors enable precise angle measurement in brake presses or fully automated welding work in optimal quality, such as in the robot cell. The B60 series smart camera is particularly interesting, thanks to the interplay between the uniVision 3 hardware and software. This massive machine vision power can be experienced first hand in the specially set up software corner. A special highlight: Visitors can try to beat the high score on a slot machine in the Smart Invaders arcade game created in-house.  Overall, the new booth concept impresses with its openness with free-standing exhibits and invites visitors to relax in the spacious bar and lounge area.

Washdown Applications
In the washdown area, sensors must withstand hygienically demanding conditions. wenglor’s robust and cleaning-resistant sensors offer a wide range of applications in the spraying area in the food, beverage and packaging industries.

U2GT Full-Metal Ultrasonic Sensors in 316L Hygienic Design
With the U2GT series of ultrasonic sensors, the wenglor sensoric group has developed a new hygiene product range specifically for the requirements of the food, pharmaceutical and chemical industries. The ultrasonic sensors presented in the high-grade stainless steel 316L housing have been specially optimized for measurement and detection tasks in hygienically demanding applications, as well as in washdown applications. The product series comprises a total of four ultrasonic sensors. Both the housing and membrane of the U2GT series sensors are made of stainless steel, which makes them particularly resistant to aggressive cleaning agents, the use of high-pressure cleaners and complete rinsing processes.  Robust Housing for Certified Protection Whether aggressive cleaning agents, harmful vapors from acids or direct contact with chemical media – the U2GT ultrasonic sensors are protected by their hermetically sealed stainless steel 316L housing (1.4404/V4A) and therefore have the highest protection classes IP68 and IP69K. This was made possible by numerous internal test series under extreme conditions as well as external certification procedures. All sensors in the series are also ECOLAB® certified, which means they are resistant to cleaning agents, and meet all requirements of the US FDA for the food industry.  Hard Shell, High-Performance Core In addition to their extraordinary robustness, the sensors from the U2GT series also have impressive performance characteristics. While the distance sensors can map working ranges of up to 1,300 mm in reflex mode, distances of up to 2,600 mm are possible in through-beam mode. The sensors are available with switching or analog output. The U2GT series can be configured either via the IO-Link interface or via external teach-in. These features come into their own in the food, beverage, pharmaceutical and chemical industries, in particular for checking for presence, positioning, and continuous container level measurement.  The Highlights at a Glance Housing and membrane made completely of stainless steel 316L (1.4404/V4A) High IP68 and IP69K protection, high temperature resistance in the range of –30 °C to +60 °C, detergent-resistant thanks to ECOLAB® approval for reliable use in washdown areas and in harsh ambient conditions FDA compliant for use in the food industry IO-Link 1.1 Large working range of up to 1,300 mm (reflex mode) Large working range of up to 2,600 mm (through-beam mode)
