New Class II, eye-safe MR L-1 Distance Laser Sensors

The MRL1(H) is a powerful distance measuring instrument for integration into industrial applications. It allows accurate and contact-less distance measurement over a wide range using the reflection of a laser
beam. The new Class II, eye-safe MR L-1 Distance Laser Sensors from Metrology Resource Company (MRC) is available for short and long distance measurements from 8 in. (0.2 meters) to 660 ft (200 meters). Accuracy varies from +/- 0.06 in. (+/-1.5 mm) to +/- 0.1 in. (+/- 3.0 mm), depending on the sensor. Measurement time is approximately 0.3 seconds. Measurement beam diameter varies from 6 to 60 mm (0.24 to 2.4 in.), depending on the distance measured.

Applications are varied and include vehicle spotting of such items as cranes, cages in mine shafts, automatic guided vehicles; distance measurement to buildings or military targets; profiling railway tunnels, caverns, mine shafts, material sheet or towers; distance of material handling equipment such as conveyors; general level measurement in large tanks or silos; distance measurement in explosion endangered areas plus numerous others.

Key features:
- Measurement range 0.2 to 200 m
- Serial interface (RS232 and RS422)
- Connection of up to 10 modules on a single RS422 line
- Wide range power supply (9...3OVDC)
- Programmable analog output (O/4...2OmA)
- Two programmable digital outputs
- Digital output for error signalization
- D-Sub connector and screw terminal for easy connection
- Adapter for telescopic viewer for easy installation
- 1P65 (protected against ingress of dust and water)
- 4 LED5 for status signaling
- Optional: Internal heater for module operation down to -40°C
- Laser class II (<0.95mW)
