Turck released its compact IO-Link ultrasonic flow sensor that provides the advantages of a standard ultrasonic sensor with the added flexibility of advanced functions via IO-Link.
This compact IO-Link ultrasonic flow sensor can be taught the same as a standard sensor via teach-by-wire or programmed and used via IO-Link.
Advanced functions like synchronization allow multiple sensors to be synchronized together without the risk of interfering with each other. When used as a group, all sensors will transmit and receive information together, increasing the coverage area, while providing a single output.
Multiplexing mode allows several sensors to be mounted close together without interference while providing individual outputs.
The sensor is available in front and side sensing models, rated to IP67, and available with M18 threaded barrel housings and M12x1 Eurofast connectors.
