TURCK's DR Series radar distance sensors deliver reliable, non-contact distance measurement for demanding mobile equipment and off-highway applications. With a sensing range of up to 15 meters, the DR Series provides dependable detection in challenging outdoor environments where dust, dirt, wind, changing light conditions, and other interference can limit optical or ultrasonic sensing technologies.

Designed for rugged applications, the compact 122 GHz radar sensors feature IP67/IP69K protection and shock resistance up to 100 g—making them well suited for the vibration, impact, moisture, and harsh operating conditions encountered by construction, agricultural, material handling, and other off-highway equipment.

Potential applications include object and obstacle detection, vehicle positioning, equipment and attachment positioning, distance and height measurement, and other applications requiring reliable non-contact sensing.

For mobile equipment applications, the sensors can also operate without IO-Link at supply voltages as low as 10 VDC, simplifying integration into vehicle electrical systems.
