Description 
The  compact  ultrasonic  sensors  of  the  UPR-B  series  are 
characterized by good price and short design. Nevertheless, 
they have a wide range of max. 1m as well as a robust metal 
housing.  And  they  can  be  synchronized  among  themselves 
and stopped with an external signal (suppression mode). 
The sensor is available as a proximity switch with either PNP 
or NPN output. Suitable applications include object as well as 
level detection of all kinds of material. 
The  switching  output  can  be  programmed  by  the  user 
(NC/NO  or  window).  Programming  is  done  using  a  single 
teach  input.  Optionally  a  teach-in  box  is  available.  For  the 
traditionalists exists a version as well with setting of switching 
distance by potentiometer. This has a 2m long cable with free 
end instead of the M12 connector. 
Thanks to the new transducer sealing the UPR-B sensors are 
very  robust  against  many  environmental  influences.  In 
particular, they are oil resistant, unlike many other ultrasonic 
sensors. 
Blind range 
The lower detection range between 0…100mm is called blind 
range. It  is typical  for ultrasonic  sensors. In  the blind range 
no measurement is possible. 
Setting the switching points 
The  switching  points  are  set  by  connecting  the  teach  input 
with either the power supply –U
B
 (0V) or +U
B
 (+24VDC). 
The  blinking  LED  shows  during  teaching  if  the  sensor  has 
detected the object. 
  LED blinks yellow:   detected 
  LED blinks red:  not detected

Caution: 
The  teach  wire  must  not  be  connected  during  normal 
operation.  The  sensor  can  e.g.  be  operated  after  teaching 
with a 3 wire cable. 
Electrical connections (view to the sensor) 
Synchronization ("Y" option) 
If  several  sensors  are  placed  close  together  and  scan  the 
same  object  or  if  a  common  background  is  present,  the 
sensors  must  be  synchronized.  For  this,  the  Teach/Sync. 
leads  of  all  sensors  (max.  6  sensors)  are  interconnected. 
Important is the order: 
1.  teach each sensor individually (!) 
2.  turn off the power 
3.  interconnect all Teach/Sync. lines 
4.  power on again only when everything is wired!
