LT7 Long-Range Time-of-Flight Laser Sensor
Self-contained retroreflective- and diffuse-mode laser distance sensors
Printed in USA
June 2013
P/N 120244 Rev. B
Features
• Extremely long range: diffuse model up to 10 m with white target, up to 7 m with
gray target, up to 3 m with black target; up to 250 m for retroreflective models
• Visible pilot laser for easy alignment
• Multiple outputs in each model: discrete outputs can be used for precision
background suppression; and alarm outputs together with display provide easy
troubleshooting
• Diffuse models: Two discrete (PNP) plus 2 alarm outputs, and 4-20 mA analog
• Retroreflective models: Two discrete (PNP) plus 2 alarm outputs
• Fast, easy-to-use TEACH-mode programming via integrated push-buttons or serial
interface (no potentiometer adjustments)
• Ongoing LCD display of sensing distance (selectable in hundredths of an inch
or millimeters)
• RS422- or SSI-compatible serial connection options
* Requires a mating cable; see page 20.
** Diffuse-mode range specified using a 90% reflectance white card.
Retroreflective-mode range specified using the appropriate specified retro target; see page 22.
