LDM51 LUMOS
Laser distance measurement

T

he brand new measurement gauge LDM51 LUMOS measures contactless
the distance between itself and nearly every surface and material. Up to
a distance of 100 m no additional reflectors are required for measuring.
The maximum distance exceeds the range of 500 m. Due to the high
measuring frequency of 100 Hz also fast movements of the target can be
captured.
The LDM51 LUMOS operates with a modulated visible laser with low beam
divergence. Newly developed algorithms and most modern technologies of the
opto-electronic signal processing allow a save, highly precise and fast distance
measurements that can be applied in almost all areas of machinery and plant
engineering.
Other application examples are level measurement, detection of geometric
dimensions like length, width or thickness and position measurement.
While developing the LDM51 LUMOS there was paid particular attention to the
operation in outdoor areas with high influence of constant light by solar radiation
and high temperatures. By its robust aluminum housing and the optional heating the LDM51 LUMOS is prepared for
safe use in harsh surrounding conditions.
