OsiSense™ XXV18
Ultrasonic Sensors
Cost-effective ultrasonic sensing technology for proximity detection
Making Sense of SensorsSM
The OsiSense™ XXV18 ultrasonic sensor from Schneider Electric
provides similar proximity sensing capabilities as most inductive
sensors, but delivers greater sensing capabilities with respect to target
color, shape or composition. These sensors are self-contained, pulse
echo, ultrasonic sensing devices that both transmit and receive sonic
energy in an 18 mm cylindrical housing.
Ideal for packaging, material handling and metal working assembly
machine applications, these sensors are unaffected by changing light
conditions, colors or environmental noise. The OsiSense™ XXV18
ultrasonic sensor is designed to perform reliably in harsh industrial
environments where other sensing technologies are challenged
(e.g., changing light conditions, dust, dirt, powder, humidity, etc.).
The OsiSense™ XXV18 sensors have a sensing range from 2.0 mm
(0.08 in.) to 50.0 mm (1.97 in) which is a 25 percent to 200 percent
increased sensing range compared to traditional inductive sensors.
Offering great value at low costs, this OsiSense™ ultrasonic sensor
provides a versatile and powerful ultrasonic sensing solution as an
alternative to using inductive sensors in proximity sensing applications.
Key Features
• Sensingrange – from 2.0 mm
(0.08") up to 50.0 mm (1.97") with
virtually no deadband allows for
use in multiple proximity detection
applications.
• Sensesallmaterialsandcolors
– able to sense most types
of objects without any sensitivity
adjustments, whether glass or
plastic, clear or opaque. And, they
are unaffected by changing color
or light conditions.
• Cost-effectiveultrasonic
sensingsolution – introduces
ultrasonic technology at a price
comparable with less capable
inductive sensors.
• Plugandplayalternative –
common 18 mm diameter body
style makes for an easy alternative
to existing inductive sensors.
• LEDstatusindicator –
illuminated LED indicates output
mode with 4-quadrant visibility
(essentially 360˚).
• Fullycompliant – RoHS
compliant, UL approved,
CE Certified, and rated IP67
and NEMA Type 4 and 13.
