Model LT2020-SO Laser Distance
Measurement Meter
|
General Description
The LT2020-SO Laser
Distance Meter operates over a substantial range off static or
passing product. ST2020-SO measures distances over a working range up to
30 meters off of natural surfaces , up to 100 meters off of white
surfaces and up to 150 meters off of a special reflector. For operation
with automated positioning control of material handling transport
systems a white reflective target is used or the special reflector is
used. The LT2020-SO can provide a measuring rate as low as 20
milliseconds.
Especially suited for precise detection and measurement of cold/hot
product at with product surface temperatures up to 600°C (1112°F). For higher
product surface temperature, the Model LT2020-HT is available for
measurement of cold/hot product at product surface temperatures up to
1200°C (2192°F).
Straightforward alignment is easily accomplished via the visible red
laser measuring beam.
Accuracy is +/- 2mm to
+/- 5mm according to ambient temperature and surface reflectivity.
Repeatability is +/- 0.5mm and the user scalable resolution is 0.1mm.
The zero offset and the span of the 4 - 20 mA analog output are both
user programmable. The distance offset is also user programmable, this
allows the user to define a zero point independent of the analog output
zero offset.
Provided with a user programmable digital switching output which is
triggered by exceeding in the positive or negative direction a user
programmable distance threshold. The hysteresis of the digital switching
output is also programmable.
The LT2020-SO is provided in a dust and waterproof protected IP65
enclosure. Standard operating temperature range is –10°C to 50°C.
Optional Secondary Environmental Enclosures are available for additional
protection for indoor, outdoor and elevated temperature applications.
The low cost LT2020-SO Laser Distance Meter provides a highly accurate
measurement reading. It is ideal for automated positioning control of
material handling transport systems where a quicker measuring output
rate is required.
Supplied as standard with a switch selectable RS232 & RS422 serial
interface with a 2400 to 38,400 Baud Rate & a programmable 4 - 20 mA 16
BIT analog output. An optional version with a ProfiBus DP Interface is
available. ProfiBus DP, DeviceNet and Ethernet Interface Options will
soon be available.
