High-precision M18 ultrasonic distance sensor with a measurement
range of 1000mm
Introduction
The High - precision M18 ultrasonic distance sensor is a remarkable
device designed for a wide range of applications. Measuring just
18mm in diameter (M18), it combines compactness with high -
performance.
This sensor features an impressive measurement range of 1000mm.
Whether it's for industrial automation, robotics, or even in some
home - based smart systems, its ability to accurately detect
distances within this span is crucial. Its high - precision nature
ensures that the data it provides is reliable. It can detect the
slightest changes in distance, making it suitable for tasks that
require pinpoint accuracy.
Equipped with advanced ultrasonic technology, it emits ultrasonic
waves and precisely measures the time it takes for the waves to
bounce back. This allows for quick and accurate distance
determination. Additionally, it's easy to integrate into existing
systems, thanks to its standard M18 form factor, making it a top -
choice for engineers and hobbyists alike.

Installation conditions
If the sensor is installed at the environment temperature fall
below 0℃,It should do well on the protective measures. In case of
direct mounting of the sensor in a through hole using the steel
nuts, it has to be fixed at the middle of the housing thread.
