URM06 - Narrow Beam Ultrasonic Distance Sensor (20～1000cm, UART)

URM06 UART Ultrasonic Sensor is a long‑range ultrasonic ranging module designed for accurate distance measurement in robotics and industrial monitoring. By emitting ultrasonic pulses and calculating the echo return time, this acoustic distance sensor determines the position of objects with reliable precision. The ranging unit supports measurement distances from 20 cm up to 10 m with 1 cm resolution, enabling stable detection across short and extended ranges. A rugged PVC enclosure with a 35 mm threaded mount allows direct installation in electrical conduit systems, making this ultrasonic distance detection module suitable for robotics platforms, automation equipment, and engineering measurement systems.

Extended 10‑Meter Ultrasonic Ranging

This long‑range ultrasonic measurement module provides detection capability from 20 cm to 1000 cm, supporting applications that require both close‑range sensing and extended distance monitoring. High acoustic output power improves signal reliability across larger measurement fields, while centimeter‑level resolution enables accurate spatial awareness for mobile robots and industrial monitoring systems. The ultrasonic distance sensor continuously emits pulses and analyzes the echo return interval, allowing stable measurement of displacement, material level, liquid level, thickness, and object distance even in complex environments.

Narrow 15° Beam for Precise Target Detection

A carefully optimized 15‑degree beam angle delivers concentrated ultrasonic energy, helping this precision ranging device isolate targets and reduce interference from surrounding objects. High receive sensitivity enhances echo detection, especially when measuring soft or irregular surfaces that often absorb acoustic signals. Such characteristics make the ultrasonic detection module suitable for robotics navigation systems and professional mobile robot platforms where directional sensing and reliable obstacle detection are essential for accurate movement and mapping.

Industrial‑Grade Housing and UART Communication

This industrial ultrasonic ranging unit integrates a durable PVC enclosure with a 35 mm threaded structure compatible with common electrical pipe mounting systems. The robust mechanical design supports stable installation in equipment frames or outdoor sensing assemblies. A UART communication interface enables straightforward integration with controllers such as Arduino, embedded control boards, and industrial microcontrollers, simplifying distance data acquisition for automation systems, robotics development, and measurement instrumentation.
