® U-GAGE ULTRASONIC Sensors
Banner U-GAGE ultrasonic sensors solve difficult applications in your plant. ® ® Ultrasonic sensors that think as well as they hear. Banner has reinvented ultrasonic sensing to be infinitely more accurate, versatile and effective in solving some of the nastiest applications you face. We have applied our industry-leading photoelectric sensor technologies to a new line of advanced ultrasonic sensors. If you’ve never tried ultrasonic sensors, or if you’ve tried them unsuccessfully before, try them again.
U-GAGE : The industry’s most advanced ultrasonic sensing features. ® ® A new innovation in programming versatility and ease-of-use. Now setting an infinite number of sensing ranges and windows is simple! With a push button right on the sensor housing or the turn of a screw, Banner ultrasonic sensors offer selectable negative or positive slope for analog sensing. Users can also choose from a variety of options for ON/OFF or High/Low level control.
Banner gives you the widest selection of ultrasonic models and features.

U-GAGE QT50U: A versatile, programmable sensor with a long 8 meter range. ® Long range, small dead zone. QT50U Series ultrasonic sensors feature an extended sensing range of up to 8 m. Its 200 mm minimum sensing distance is the industry’s shortest for a long-range ultrasonic product. Microprocessor TEACH. Advanced microprocessor TEACH-mode programming simplifies setup and offers added application flexibility.
U-GAGE S18U: A compact ultrasonic sensor with push-button programming. ® A high-accuracy, close-range solution. Offering highly accurate object detection from 30 mm to 300 mm, the S18U reliably detects opaque or translucent objects, is not affected by color and offers programmable background suppression. Straight or right-angle emitter housings. Microprocessor TEACH-mode programming.
U-GAGE T30U: The smallest, most versatile 30 mm barrel ultrasonic sensor. ® Analog & discrete outputs in the same sensor. The T30U sets new standards for ultrasonic sensor versatility by including both discrete and analog outputs in the same unit. Choose a model with either an NPN or a PNP discrete output, plus a 0 to 10V dc or 4 to 20 mA sourcing analog output in the same sensor. Now you can perform both measurement and on-off switching simultaneously with a single sensor.
U-GAGE Q45U: Push-button programming for versatility and ease of use. ® Simply push one button to set up operating window limits from 100 mm to 1.4 m. Microprocessor-controlled, TEACH-mode limits are set by simply placing the target at one of the desired limits and clicking the push button, then placing the target at the second limit and clicking again. U p t o IT LIM n FA Rt h e B u t t o 3 m Pus h IT L I Mt t o n R A N E e Bu Pus h th Selectable response modes and times. Superior diagnostics.
U-GAGE Q45UR: Ultra-accurate gauging in compact remote sensing packages. ® Precise discrete or analog sensing for hard-to-access and difficult applications. With all the advanced features of the standard Q45U, the Q45UR adds the convenience of a choice of three remote sensing heads to access applications with limited space or difficult environments. High-precision discrete output models can resolve object presence within 0.6 mm at any point from 50 mm to 250 mm with exceptional sensing repeatability: ±0.
U-GAGE T18U: Ultimate reliability in dual range, opposed ultrasonic sensors. ® Reliable sensing of clear materials. High frequency acoustic emitter and tuned receiver are ideal for sensing under bright lighting and for reliably detecting clear materials such as glass. They operate from 12 to 30V dc with current-sinking (NPN) or current-sourcing (PNP) complementary outputs to interface with a wide variety of loads. Popular patented housing.
Banner U-GAGE ultrasonic sensor applications. ® MATERIALS HANDLING DETECTION Product: QT50U Objective: To detect the presence or absence of a target that may include a non-perpendicular sensing surface. LIQUID LEVEL MEASURING IN CLEAR CONTAINERS Sensor Model: QT50U with discrete output. Product: S18U Operation: In materials handling applications, the presence or absence of diverse targets (for example, pallets) must be sensed reliably.
