Key Benefits of the LSV-300

• Heterodyne technology for high precision velocity and length measurements, where forward, reverse and standstill conditions persist

• Rugged, compact controller housing and flexible sensor head (IP 66 protected) for industrial environments

• Attractive price performance ratio and excellent ROI Easy integration with process control systems using standard Ethernet, encoder or other process interfaces Includes “Material Present”

• Function to detect the presence of material in the field of view and for offset length compensation

• Various protective housings and air purge devices are available for harsh environments

• Includes an RS-422 interface for optional, large-area panel display

The LSV-065 Sensor Head is the watchful eye of the system, measuring the in-plane movement of the material surface with the aid of laser Doppler velocimetry. Its compact size and long stand-off distance allows for simple integration into the production line. Optional housings that cool and protect the LSV enable its use in hot and contaminated environments.

The robust, IP66-protected LSV Signal Processor powers the sensor head and provides signal conditioning and processing. It accepts commands from process controllers and can be monitored by a notebook computer via its serial interface. The LSV Controller easily integrates with a local area network (LAN) through the optional Ethernet interface. Length and velocity data are simultaneously displayed and updated every millisecond at each output.

The user-friendly LSV PC software is an integral part of every LSV measurement system. The LSV PC software runs under Windows® 2000 and XP. It not only simplifies configuration of the system, but also offers excellent process, observation and analysis options.
