The optoNCDT 1710-1000 laser sensors are unrivalled in measurement performance worldwide. The sensor can measure over a working range of 1,000mm. The start of measurement is 1,000mm from the sensor body which means that objects upto 2m in distance can be measured. The controller is integrated into the housing of the sensor which means that external electronic processing is not required. The sensor operates with automatic, real time surface compensation, RTSC which auto adapts the laser intensity to the surface being measured. Additionally built in, programmable limit switch give the sensor further integration flexibility.

Application areas of the sensor are:

• Harsh environments
• Large parts or areas where a large stand off are required
• Target in vacuum – the sensor can measure through viewing windows
• High object temperatures
• In process measurements on difficult surfaces
