Laser Distance Sensors for long measuring ranges and millimeter accuracy
Laser Distance Sensors for long measuring ranges and millimeter accuracy
Jenoptik laser distance sensors monitor or measure distances or object lengths, provide positional location, and determine fill levels from a few centimeters up to three kilometers in a non-contact fashion. These distances are measured with an accuracy of up to one millimeter and at a output rate of several thousand readings per second. The measured object can be a solid, energy absorbing or radiating hot body. Especially measurements on natural surfaces with low reflectivity are also possible. The laser distance sensors even can measure distances to or from moving objects.
The industry-proof housing with compact footprint and industry standard interface options make the laser distances sensors ideal for integration into your automation and process control systems. The distance sensors are available with RS-232, RS-422, Profibus, or SSI interfaces and bus systems. Along with digital switching and analog output the sensors easily adapt into automation environments. The ruggedized housing with integrated heating enables installation where needed – even in harsh industrial environments.
Benefits
- Powerful and fast: measure distances of up to three kilometers with up to 40 kilohertz.
- Flexible: measure on natural surfaces, either moving or stationary, radiating hot or cold.
- Precise and efficient: measure with almost millimeter accuracy and in a non-wearing, non-contact fashion.
- Reliable and robust: dependable use in a wide range of harsh industrial environments.
- Easy to integrate: simple to install thanks to standard interfaces and compact desig
Applications
- Automation: level measurement, process control
- Industrial metrology: non-contact distance, length, and height measurement
- Transport and logistics, conveyor technology: distance and height measurement, vehicle detection, collision avoidance
- Steel production and rolling mills: process control, detection, position measurement and thickness measurement for slabs
