AFM60A-S4NB018X12SICK

The SICK AFM60A-S4NB018X12 is a compact, self-contained ultrasonic sensor designed for precise continuous distance measurement and level detection in industrial environments. It provides an analog output signal that is proportional to the measured distance, offering greater flexibility than a simple on/off switch.

Key Features:

Technology: Ultrasonic (Non-contact detection using sound waves). This makes it immune to object color, transparency, dust, and light interference.

Sensing Range: 60 mm to 400 mm (0.06m - 0.4m). This close range is ideal for applications in confined spaces.

Output Type: Analog 0...10 V voltage output (S4). The output voltage changes linearly with the distance to the target object.

Output Function: Additional NPN normally open (NO) switching output (NB). This provides a simple on/off signal that activates when the target is within a pre-set window, useful for basic presence detection or alarm triggering.

Teaching Method: Pushbutton teach-in (018). This allows for quick and easy configuration of the switching points and analog range directly on the sensor without the need for a separate programming device.

Electrical Connection: M12 4-pin quick-disconnect connector (X12). This is a standard, robust connector for easy installation and maintenance.

Housing: Cylindrical threaded barrel, 18 mm diameter (implied by the AFM60 series and the '018' code, often paired with an M12 connector).

Primary Application:
This sensor is perfectly suited for applications requiring both continuous monitoring and a discrete control signal, such as:

Continuous level monitoring of liquids, powders, or granules in small tanks or hoppers.

Precise positioning and loop control.

Detecting the presence/absence of objects and their exact distance (e.g., on a conveyor).

Collision avoidance on automated guided vehicles (AGVs) or robots.
