Regardless of color and material BUS ultrasonic sensors are perfect for distance measurement or position detection of granules, fluids and powders. They measure fill levels, heights and sag without making contact as well as count and monitor the presence of objects. They are extremely versatile, operate independently of color and surface finish, and are not affected by transparent objects that generate strong reflections. Ultrasonic sensors are designed for critical situations. Dust, dirt and steam do not pose a problem. Broad detection range high precision Balluff ultrasonic sensors detection ranges extend from 20mm to 8m. Their high resolution and small blind zones ensure extreme precision. Integral synchronization means that the sensors do not interfere with one another.
Switching and analog variants BUS ultrasonic sensors differ from one another in their output signal. Each series is available as a switching or analog version. All analog versions are available with voltage or current output (0...10 V or 4...20 mA). The BUS M30 includes variants with two switching outputs (one switching and one analog output, or two switching outputs and one analog output) so that one sensor can adopt the function of a second sensor. IO-Link BUS 18M sensors with push/pull output are equipped with an IO-Link interface that enables a change from SIO mode to IO-Link mode.

Automotive industry
Foil tear monitoring Ultrasonic sensors with switching output can be used for foil tear monitoring. If large waves are formed in the foil, the sensor should be operated as a diffuse reflective sensor. This operating mode functions reliably even if the sound is reflected by waves in the foil.
Height and width measurement Through the use of multiple BUSM30 or BUS18M ultrasonic sensors, three-dimensional measurements can be made for everything from small boxes to large cartons.
Presence verification BUS detect filled or empty pallets and measure the content of transport containers. If a box or a container is to be inspected with multiple sensors, they can be synchronized with each other.
Robot positioning Due to their small dimensions, BUS are ideally suited for exactly positioning robot arms: BUS 18M ultrasonic sensors in threaded sleeve and BUS R06K in block-style housing.
Ultrasonic Sensors
Positioning When scanning glass plates or other smooth and flat surfaces, make certain that the ultrasound strikes the surface at a right angle.
Wire-breakage monitoring When winding and unwinding a wire rope, ultrasonic sensors with analog output detect its position on the layer.
Stack-height detection Whether wooden boards, glass plates, paper or color plastic plates, BUS ultrasonic sensors measure stack heights with high precision.
Fill-level monitoring In silos, bunkers, containers for all bulk materials (e.g., sand, gravel, coal, grain), our ultrasonic sensors are ideal.
Object detection BUS ultrasonic sensors sort containers and parts with different heights. BUS count objects. And with absolute reliability.
Sensor selection
Important selection criteria for an ultrasonic sensor are its scanning range and the associated, three-dimensional detection range.
Definitions
n Blind zone
The blind zone defines the smallest reliable scanning range of the sensor. There must be no objects or interfering reflections within the blind zone, as measurement errors may otherwise occur. n Operating scanning range The operating scanning range is the typical working range of a sensor. For objects with good reflective properties, it can also be used up to its limiting scanning range. n Detection range The detection range is measured using various standard targets.
Detection range
0 Blind zone
Detection ranges The red areas are measured with a thin round rod ( 10mm or 27mm, depending on sensor type) and show the typical working range of a sensor. To obtain the blue areas, a plate is moved into the sound fields from the side. In doing so, the optimum angle of the plate to the sensor is set. This is thus the maximum detection range of the sensor. It is not possible to evaluate ultrasound reflections outside of the blue sound cones.
Ultrasonic Sensors
Modes
The ultrasonic sensor as a diffuse reflective sensor is the classic operating mode. Compared to other sensor principles, it has superior background suppression. During operation, the switching output is set as soon as the object is located within the set switching distance. The switch point has a hysteresis. The operating mode is suitable for, e.g., counting objects on a conveyor belt or for performing presence verification.
The ultrasonic sensor in window mode is an extended function of the ultrasonic diffuse reflective sensor. In this case, the switching output can only be set if the object is located within a window that is defined by two window limits. This can be used to monitor, e.g., the correct bottle size in a bottle crate. Bottles that are too tall or too short are sorted out. Window mode and the diffuse reflection ultrasonic sensor can be set on all ultrasonic sensors that are equipped with teach-in.
Set window
The function of the diffuse reflection ultrasonic sensor is similar to that of a photoelectric sensor. Any reflector, such as a metal sheet, is sufficient. In window mode, the ultrasonic sensor is set so that the permanently mounted reflector lies within the window. The ultrasonic sensor returns a signal as soon as an object fully covers the reflector. It plays no role here whether the object completely absorbs or reflects away the sound. This operating mode is therefore used for materials that can be only poorly reflected, such as foam, or for scanning objects with irregular surfaces.
Set window
Reflector
Ultrasonic sensors with analog output output the measured distance value as a voltage that is proportional to distance (0...10V) or as current that is proportional distance (4...20mA). For the ultrasonic sensors with analog output, the sensor-near and sensor-distant window limits of the analog characteristic as well as a rising or falling characteristic can be set. Depending on the sensor model and window width, the resolution is between 0.025mm and 0.36mm.
Linear output 20 mA 4 mA
Ultrasonic sensors with IO-Link enable gapless communication through all levels of the system architecture: from the sensor to the top fieldbus level. Transmission of the measured distance value to the controller is bit serial.

Automatic changeover between current and voltage output
TouchControl With TouchControl, all settings are made on the sensors. The three-digit LED indicator continuously displays the current distance value and automatically switches between mm and cm display. Two buttons are used to call up the configuration and navigate through the self-explanatory menu structure.
Inspecting transport boxes for in order parts Target objects show up on conveyor belts. Multiple ultrasonic sensors simultaneously monitor transport containers for in order parts. Reflective, transparent or different-colored surfaces are reliably detected. In multiplex operation, mutual interference of the sensors is prevented.

Focusing attachment For fill-level measurement through small openings with diameters to 5mm, the sensor with focusing attachment is positioned directly over the measurement location. The tightly bundled sound field is focused exactly on the location that is to be measured. The blind zone of the sensor lies within the focusing attachment, making measurement possible starting directly from the sound outlet. Comment: Can be used with BUS R06K1..-02/007-.. and BUS R06K1..-02/015-.. for measurements in boreholes and filling levels as well as for scanning circuit boards or highly transparent foils.
Fill-level measurement in narrow containers On a rotary indexing table, narrow containers are filled with liquid or solid media. The ultrasonic sensor then verifies the exact filling level. 12
