Ultrasonic sensor with 508 mm range
The Telemecanique Sensors VM18VAQ is a cylindrical ultrasonic sensor built for industrial detection tasks. It suits engineers and maintenance teams who need reliable presence or distance sensing in harsh environments.
Analog 0 to 10 V output on a 4 pin M12 connector
The sensor delivers an analog voltage signal proportional to target distance up to 508 mm and requires a 15 to 24 V DC supply. The 4 pin M12 male connector carries power and signal, while the 40 mA maximum load limits the downstream circuit it can drive directly.
Check supply voltage and ingress needs before
Verify that your control system accepts a 0 to 10 V analog input and can provide 15 to 24 V DC within the 40 mA load limit. Confirm that IP 67 and NEMA 4X ratings meet the wash-down or outdoor exposure conditions at the mounting point.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 10 V or 40 mA version?
This sensor provides a 0 to 10 V DC analog output and supports a maximum load of 40 mA; both figures describe the same single variant.
What does the 508 mm detecting distance mean on a production line?
It is the maximum range at which the ultrasonic beam can reliably detect a target under standard conditions.
How does the M12 connector limit the installation?
The 4-pin M12 male connector requires a matching cable and carries the 15 to 24 V DC supply plus the analog signal.
