Laser Triangulation Sensors. RF600 Series Safety precautions · · · · Use supply voltage and interfaces indicated in the sensor specifications. In connection/disconnection of cables, the sensor power must be switched off. Do not use sensors in locations close to powerful light sources. To obtain stable results, wait about 20 minutes after sensor activation to achieve uniform sensor warm-up. The sensors have been developed for use in industry and meet the requirements of the following Directives: · EU directive 2014/30/EU. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). · EU directive 2011/65/EU, “RoHS“...

Laser Triangulation Sensors. RF600 Series · Do not target the laser beam to humans. · Avoid staring into the laser beam through optical instruments. · Mount the sensor so that the laser beam is positioned above or below the eyes level. · Use protective goggles when operating the sensor. · Avoid staring into the laser beam. · Do not disassemble the sensor. The sensors make use of a cw 660 nm (or 405 nm, 450 nm) wavelength semiconductor laser. Maximum output power is 50 mW. The sensors belong to the 3В laser safety class. The following warning label is placed on the sensor body: The following...

Laser Triangulation Sensors. RF600 Series Overall and mounting dimensions Overall and mounting dimensions of the sensors are shown in Figure 2, Figure 2.1 and Figure 2.2. Sensor package is made of anodized aluminum. The front panel of the package has two windows: one is output, the other for receiving radiation reflected from the object under control. The package also contains mounting holes. Sensors are equipped with cable gland or connector. Sensors with CAN or Ethernet interface are equipped with two connectors. Figure 2. RF600 sensor with cable gland (CG) Figure 2.1. RF600 sensor with...

Laser Triangulation Sensors. RF600 Series Figure 2.2. RF600 sensor with two connectors (CC) Overall demands for mounting The sensor should be positioned so that the object under control is within the working range of the sensor. In addition, no foreign objects should be allowed to stay on the path of the incident and reflected laser radiation. Where objects to be controlled have intricate shapes and textures, the incidence of mirror component of the reflected radiation to the receiving window should be minimized. Designation of connector contacts View from the side of connector contacts...

Laser Triangulation Sensors. RF600 Series Time limit for integration Intensity of the reflected radiation depends on the surface characteristic of objects under control. Therefore, output power of the laser and the time of integration of radiation incident onto the CMOS-array are automatically adjusted to achieve maximum measurement accuracy. Parameter "time limit for integration" specifies maximum allowable time of integration. If the radiation intensity received by the sensor is so small that no reasonable result is obtained within the time of integration equal to the limiting value, the...

Laser Triangulation Sensors. RF600 Series Note 3. It should be taken into account that the sensors differ in some variation in the parameters of the internal generator, which affects the accuracy of the Time Sampling period. This parameter sets a zero point of absolute system of coordinates in any point within the limits of a working range. You can set this point by corresponding command or by connecting AL input to the ground line (this input must beforehand be set to mode 4). When the sensor is fabricated, the base distance is set with a certain uncertainty, and, if necessary, it is...

Laser Triangulation Sensors. RF600 Series Mutual synchronization Hardware zero-set/ Hardware laser ON/OFF Time lock of the result If the sensor does not find the object or if the authentic result cannot be received, a zero value is transferred. The given parameter sets time during which the last authentic result is transferred. The time is set in increments of 5 ms. Method of results averaging This parameter defines one of the two methods of averaging of measurement results implemented directly in the sensor: · Averaging over a number of results · Time averaging When averaging over a number...
