Pepperl+Fuchs UB-PR0G 2 Photoelectric Sensor | 2m Detection, 10-30V DC, PNP Output | IP67 Rated

1. Function and Compatibility​

The Pepperl + Fuchs UB - PROG2 is a programming unit designed specifically for ultrasonic sensors within the UB series. It serves as a crucial tool for setting up and configuring these sensors according to specific industrial requirements. With a teach - in input on pin 2, it enables users to easily program the sensors. This programming unit is highly compatible with a range of UB ultrasonic sensors, making it versatile for various industrial applications. Whether adjusting sensing distances or output settings, the UB - PROG2 simplifies the process, ensuring seamless integration of ultrasonic sensors into automation systems.​

2. Physical Design​

Physically, the UB - PROG2 features a compact and short design, with dimensions of 40 x 40 x 22 mm. This compactness allows for easy handling and installation in different industrial setups. It has a connection via an M12 x 1, 4 - pin connector, which provides a reliable and secure link to the sensors it programs. The unit comes with a 2 - meter cable, offering flexibility in terms of the distance between the programming unit and the sensor being configured. The housing, made of nickel - plated brass, not only provides durability but also resistance to corrosion, ensuring long - term use in harsh industrial environments.​

3. Electrical and Safety Aspects​

Operating within a voltage range of 10 - 30 V DC, the UB - PROG2 is suitable for standard industrial power supplies. It has a single switching output with NPN configuration, which can be programmed as either normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC). This flexibility in output configuration caters to different control system needs. The unit also has UL approval as a Class 2 power source, ensuring safety and compliance with international standards. Additionally, for products rated ≤ 36 V, it does not require CCC approval, making it convenient for use in a wide range of applications where lower - voltage sensors are involved.
