1075604

Overview

The SICK UP56-20N1430 (Part No. 1075604) is an ultrasonic level sensor designed for non-contact measurement of liquids and bulk materials in demanding industrial environments. It features a PTFE-protected transducer capable of withstanding process pressures up to 6 bar and temperatures up to 85°C. The device provides both switching outputs for overfill/idle monitoring and a selectable analog output (4-20 mA or 0-10 V). It supports parameterization via integrated display, IO-Link 1.1, or Connect+ adapter.

Feature Summary

• Non-contact measurement using a PTFE-coated membrane resistant to aggressive, viscous, and abrasive media
• Dual functionality combining switching signals for idle/overfill monitoring with continuous analog output
• Adjustable ultrasonic cone configuration to optimize measurement stability in tight installation spaces
• Reliable blanking capability to ignore interference from internal stirrers

Applications

• Monitoring aggressive chemical liquids such as acids and bases
• Level detection in pressurized containers
• Measurement of viscose or inhomogeneous bulk materials
• Industrial processes requiring wear-free sensing in difficult media

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number suffix against the official SICK datasheet to confirm the exact housing material (stainless steel, PVDF, or PTFE) and process connection type (GFD40). Ensure the selected variant matches the required pressure rating of 6 bar and temperature range up to 85°C for your specific application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this model when non-contact measurement is required for challenging media that may damage other sensor types. The adjustable ultrasonic cone allows adaptation to narrow tank geometries. Verify compatibility with existing control systems for IO-Link 1.1 integration if digital communication is preferred over standard analog signaling.

Part Context

This component belongs to the UP56 series of ultrasonic level sensors manufactured by SICK. The series is engineered for robust performance in harsh industrial conditions, utilizing durable materials like PTFE and stainless steel to ensure longevity and accuracy in corrosive or high-pressure applications.
