1. How does a laser ranging sensor work?
Laser ranging sensors mainly use the phase measurement method for distance measurement. This method calculates distance by measuring the phase difference between the emitted laser and the received reflected laser, suitable for high-precision and fast measurements. For example, the GFL-Y series laser ranging sensor uses a self-developed measurement method for quick and accurate measurements.
2. What is the measurement accuracy of a laser ranging sensor?
Laser ranging sensors can achieve high-precision measurements with errors typically in the millimeter range. For instance, the DS series laser ranging sensor can achieve a measurement accuracy of ±2mm within a 200-meter range, making it suitable for applications requiring high precision.
3. What is the operating temperature range of a laser ranging sensor?
Laser ranging sensors usually have a wide operating temperature range. For example, the DS series laser ranging sensor operates within the range of -10°C to 55°C, making it adaptable to various environmental conditions.
4. What is the multifunctionality of a laser ranging sensor?
Laser ranging sensors support multiple output methods, such as NPN/PNP, analog, and RS485, allowing flexible integration with different industrial control systems. For instance, the GFL-Y series sensor supports various output types, including switch quantity, analog quantity, and RS485, to meet the needs of different equipment.
5. What are the display and button functions of a laser ranging sensor?
Laser ranging sensors are typically equipped with a display and buttons for setting and displaying measurement data. For example, the GFL-Y series sensor has a 128x32 dot matrix screen, supports backlight settings, and offers various display functions for user convenience.
6. How to choose the measurement range of a laser ranging sensor?
The measurement range of a laser ranging sensor varies depending on the specific model. For example, the DS series sensor has a measurement range of up to 200 meters, suitable for long-distance measurement applications.
7. What are the installation dimensions of a laser ranging sensor?
The installation dimensions of a laser ranging sensor are usually detailed in the product technical manual. For example, the DA-Y & DB-Y series sensors have dimensions of 88.45x40x59.3mm (including the connection base) for easy and stable installation.
