What is the maximum detection distance of DADISICK measuring light curtains?

Question

Accepted Answer

DADISICK DK-QL measuring light curtains offer two detection distance ranges depending on the beam spacing: 0.3-1 meter for high-precision 2.5mm spacing models, and 0.3-6 meters for standard 10mm and 20mm spacing models.

DADISICK DK-QL models include optical filtering to mitigate this. Environmental ConditionsDust, fog, and humidity can scatter infrared beams, potentially reducing effective range. Regular cleaning of optical surfaces is recommended. Alignment QualityPrecise alignment between emitter and receiver is critical for achieving maximum detection distance. Even small misalignment reduces effective range.Case Example: A logistics company uses DADISICK DK-QL200-10-1990 (10mm spacing, 0.3-6M range) to measure package dimensions on a conveyor. The emitter and receiver are mounted 4 meters apart, well within the 6-meter maximum. The system measures packages up to 1990mm height with ±10mm accuracy.
