Rugged laser distance sensors for outdoor use

The optoNCDT ILR1171-125 laser distance sensor is designed for outdoor use. It measures 20x faster than the predecessor model. Due to the laser runtime principle with infrared light and a measuring rate of up to 40 kHz, high energy pulses are achieved, allowing stable measurements with very good signal quality. Even in poor visibility conditions with fog and rain, the sensor thus offers high accuracy. The ambient light resistance is 50,000 lux.

A robust IP67 aluminum housing protects the sensor, which also provides reliable results in a temperature range of -40 to +60 °C. The extremely small design allows the sensor to be mounted even where space is limited.

Applications include distance measurements for monitoring buildings, cranes and wind turbines. The measuring range is 125 m, an extension to 270 m is possible by means of a reflector.
