LDM 301
Laser Distance Measurement Sensor
Angewandte Sensortechnik
Product Description
The new LDM 301 Laser distance sensor measures distance and speed of natural targets without a
reflector. A reflector can be used for increasing the measuring range. The sensor needs only a very
short time to measure; it facilitates distance measurement to or from moving objects. The laser pulse’s
time-of-flight measurement principle which it uses is specifically suitable where great distances have to
be measured and for applications in harsh industrial environments.
With the compact design shape, simple setup and configured with standard interfacing facilities, the
LDM 301 can easily be installed. For interfacing an analogue output, 2 digital outputs and a serial
interface RS232 or RS422 are available.
Standard LDM 301 delivery includes integral heating, a status display and a red Laser pointer. A
modular setup allows for easy complementation with accessories or special models as may be
required in particular applications.
Applications
Equipment and performance features of the LDM 301 warrant multiple possibilities of application in
industrial environments:
•
•
•
•
•
Process monitoring in steel works and rolling mills
Fill-level measurement
Positioning of cranes, loading and handling equipment
Measurement of points that cannot be accessed, for example, inside of cavities, tubes or
containers
Position monitoring of vehicles or ships
