The DSS 015 is a compact ultrasonic distance sensor using time-of-flight measurement for object detection and level monitoring, capable of identifying transparent materials and operating reliably under varying light conditions. It features an IO-Link interface for direct connection to control systems, a plastic housing compliant with UL94 V-0, and an M12 A-coded 4-pin shielded connector. The sensor operates on 24 V DC with a power consumption of 0.6 W, measures distances from 0.3 m to 4 m with a tolerance of ±2%, and has a measurement resolution of 1 mm at a frequency of 10 Hz. It mounts via M4 or M3 screws, measures 3.9 in height, 1.4 in width, and 1.1 in depth, weighs 1.4 oz, and is rated for operation from -13 °F to 158 °F with an IP40 protection class.
The compact smart distance sensor uses ultrasonic waves and the principle of time-of-flight (ToF) measurement to determine the distance to objects. It is suitable for numerous application areas in the fields of distance and level monitoring. In contrast to other distance measuring methods (measuring principle e.g. laser), the DSS 015 even detects transparent objects such as glass, film and liquids and is insensitive to changing light conditions. Connection to higher-level control systems (e.g. PLC) is very easy via the IO-Link interface.
