AS1100 Long Distance Sensor

A spin off the Acuity 2100, the AS1100 is built for applications still needing high performance but not quite at the high precision level of the AS2100. The AS1100 Long Distance Sensor can measure natural targets up to 100m away and Acuity reflective targets up to 150m away with an accuracy of ± 3mm depending on target reflectance and environmental conditions. With measurements up to 100Hz, the AS1100 is typically sufficient for many applications, including successful measurements on materials up to ~1,300⁰C. Due to the product’s high performing specs at a cost-effective price, the AS1100 is a perfect accurate distance sensor for a wide variety of applications and industries. Examples include: Overhead crane position measurement, Flood gate position measurements, Inline position and dimension measurements of hot materials, Cut to length applications, Silo level measurements & controlling the filling and pouring of steel and iron, Diameter and width measurements of rolls (paper & steel), length/width positioning measurements for sorting applications, and more.

Features

  • The AS1100 has a Class 2, red, visible laser diode for simple aiming and setup.
  • The standard speed of the long range sensor using RS232, RS422 or analog interfaces is approximately 100 Hz.
  • Additionally, the AS1100 unit comes with a built in USB connection option for easy testing & troubleshooting of unit.
  • The AS1100 with a specialized EtherNet/IP™ back cover allows the sensor to connect and send data to EtherNet/IP™ compatible hardware.
