From Fortune 500 enterprises to innovative startups, leading companies choose Marvo for reliable automation and control components.
"Found the part we needed at the best price. Spoke to Rob to make sure the part was actually in stock, as many companies don't actually have the part available to ship. It was in stock ready and the part was checked and shipped and received within a couple of days from their German stock. Would definitely use again and recommend."
The Pepperl + Fuchs UB800-18GM40-U-V1 ultrasonic sensor is a compact and versatile device designed for precise distance measurement and object detection in a wide range of industrial applications. With a sensing range of 50 to 800 mm and an adjustable measurement window, this sensor offers flexibility and accuracy for monitoring and control tasks.
The sensor features a short design with a length of 40 mm, making it suitable for installation in tight spaces. It is equipped with function indicators that are visible from all directions, ensuring clear status visibility. The analogue output of 0 to 10 V provides a linear signal relative to the detected distance, and the sensor's programming capabilities allow for customisation of the output function to suit specific application needs.
Constructed with a robust brass, nickel-plated housing and a transducer made from a durable epoxy resin and hollow glass sphere mixture, the UB800-18GM40-U-V1 is designed to withstand harsh industrial environments. It has a protection degree of IP67, ensuring protection against dust and water ingress.
Temperature compensation is built into the sensor to maintain performance across a wide ambient temperature range of -25 to 70 °C, making it suitable for use in varying climate conditions. The sensor's response delay is approximately 100 ms, providing timely feedback for dynamic processes.
The UB800-18GM40-U-V1 is a reliable choice for applications requiring non-contact object detection and distance measurement, such as material handling, level control, and automation systems. Its technical sophistication and build quality make it a valuable component for enhancing operational efficiency and precision.

Thumbs up to Rob for helping out with an urgent requirement we had on a Friday afternoon. The part we wanted was over in Europe and Rob went out of his way to get it ordered and on site here for the following Tuesday.City Bearings
Absolutely fantastic service. Rob was very helpful. Great communication. Requested part was shipped in no time.Konrad Eliaszuk

FIRST TIME WORKING WITH MARVO. THEY HAD WHAT I NEEDED AND TOOK GREAT CARE OF ME AND GOT MY ORDER OUT IMMEDITELY. WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE SERVICE AND THE PERSON I SPOKE WITH. I WILL DEFINITELY WORK WITH THEM QGAIN IN THE FUTURE.Robert Cohen
After ordering an urgent part from Marvo i received a great level of customer service and Rob was very helpful.Claire Hinchliff
Excellent service partially from Mark who stayed late to ensure the part arrived with me same day as this was a critical part for me even though this was my first time using Marvo. I will defiantly be using again.Josh Holt
Extremely Helpful. Shipped me a replacement unit next day and i was up and running within 24 hours. Replacement new from machinery manufacturers was on a 7 day lead time.Sean Conlin
