Product overview

The Nanoradar UAM231 is a millimeter-wave distance and altitude sensor for terrain-following measurement and flight-control integration. Its altitude output represents changes in ground elevation, supporting terrain awareness during flight and precise measurement for takeoff and landing. FMCW modulation delivers a default detection range of 0.2~800m, with a maximum altitude measurement distance of 1000m. Ranging accuracy is ±0.02m, the blind zone is 0.2m, and measurements update at 40Hz. Integrated static clutter filtering suppresses abrupt data jumps, while hardware and software self-checking supports reliable output.

Built with an IP67-rated housing, the UAM231 measures 132.4×73.2×17.5mm and weighs 148g. It suits high-speed, high-impact and high-vibration environments, with operation in rain, snow, humid fog, salt spray and sandstorms, including at night. Protection capability can decline with wear. The sensor operates from 7~24V DC, consumes 1.8W and supports temperatures from -40 to +70°C. UART, CAN, RS232, RS422 and RS485 interfaces provide connection options, with plug-and-play protocol integration for APM and PX4 flight-control platforms. Radar operation or functionality may be restricted in some countries or regions.
