Description

The PONO US1000-18W30-TTL utilizes ultrasonic time-of-flight (ToF) principles to deliver accurate distance measurements. Its 200kHz ultrasonic transducer provides a focused beam for reliable detection of objects within a 150mm to 1000mm range, with a fast response time of less than 200ms. The integrated signal conditioning circuitry outputs a linearized distance value via a simple TTL-level UART protocol.

Engineered for industrial durability, the sensor features a robust PBT plastic housing with an IP65 ingress protection rating, making it suitable for applications exposed to dust and water jets. The built-in temperature compensation algorithm corrects for sound speed variations, ensuring consistent accuracy across its specified operating temperature range of 10°C to +60°C.

Key Features

  • Precision Ultrasonic Ranging: Delivers 0.6% full-range accuracy with a linearity error of less than 2% for reliable data.
  • Industrial-Grade Enclosure: IP65-protected, compact M30 form factor constructed from durable PBT material.
  • Serial Communication Interface: Simple TTL UART output (9600 baud, 8N1) facilitates direct connection to logic-level systems.
  • Environmental Stability: Integrated temperature compensation ensures performance consistency in varying ambient conditions.
  • Fast Response & Low Power: Operational response time under 200ms with a typical current draw of ≤30mA at 12V DC.
  • Focused Detection Beam: ±10° field of view minimizes false echoes from peripheral objects.
  • Wide Operating Voltage: Stable performance across the nominal 12V DC supply range.

Applications

  • Precise object detection and positioning in automated assembly lines and robotic pick-and-place systems.
  • Non-contact liquid level monitoring in tanks, sumps, and industrial vessels.
  • Obstacle avoidance and navigation for autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) and AGVs.
  • Roll diameter measurement and web break detection in printing and textile machinery.
  • Parking assistance and vehicle detection in smart infrastructure and logistics.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the communication protocol and how do I connect this sensor to an Arduino?

The sensor communicates via a TTL-level UART serial interface at 9600 baud (8N1). To connect to an Arduino (5V logic), wire the sensor's TX pin to an Arduino RX pin (e.g., digital pin 2 using SoftwareSerial) and the sensor's RX pin to an Arduino TX pin. Ensure a common ground and provide a stable 12V DC power supply. The sensor outputs ASCII-formatted distance data.

Can this sensor operate outdoors or in wet conditions?

Yes, the IP65 rating indicates it is dust-tight and protected against low-pressure water jets from any direction. This makes it suitable for outdoor use or damp industrial environments. However, it is not submersible and should not be exposed to sustained high-pressure water or submerged.

What is the minimum and maximum detectable distance, and what affects accuracy?

The specified detection range is 150mm (blind zone) to 1000mm. Accuracy can be affected by the target's surface material (soft, absorbent surfaces reflect poorly), angle, and environmental conditions like extreme temperature shifts or air turbulence. The built-in temperature compensation helps mitigate ambient temperature effects.

Does the sensor require any calibration or special configuration?

No user calibration is typically required as the sensor is factory-calibrated. The TTL UART interface outputs distance readings directly in millimeters. The only configuration needed is setting your host system's serial port to 9600 baud to receive the data packets.
