MSE-XT220 Explosion Proof Laser Distance Measurement Sensor

General Description

The MSE-XT220 Laser Distance Measurement Sensor operates over a substantial range off static or passing product in difficult areas in harsh hazardous and outdoor environments. The MSE-XT220 measures distances over a working range up to 30 meters off of natural surfaces, up to 100 meters off of white surfaces and up to 150 meters off of a special reflector. For operation with automated positioning control of material handling transport systems a white reflective target is used or the special reflector is used.

Especially suited for precise detection and measurement of cold/hot product.

Straightforward alignment is easily accomplished via the visible red laser measuring beam.

Accuracy is ±3mm to ± 5mm according to ambient temperature and surface reflectivity. Repeatability is ± 0.5mm and the user scalable resolution is 0.1mm.

The zero offset and the span of the 4 - 20mA analog output are both user programmable. The distance offset is also user programmable, this allows the user to define a zero point independent of the analog output zero offset.

Provided with a user programmable digital switching output which is triggered by exceeding in the positive or negative direction a user programmable distance threshold. The hysteresis of the digital switching output is also programmable.

The MSE-XT220 is a robust Laser Distance Measurement Sensor and is provided in a Sand Cast Copper Free Aluminum Explosion Proof Housing. The housing meets Explosion Proof Certifications for Class I, Groups B, C, D; Class II, E, F, G; Class III, NEMA 7BCD and NEMA 9EFG. The housing can also be used in IP66 and NEMA 4X water tight applications. The housing has a corrosion resistant, "Safety Blue" polyester powder coating and utilizes stainless steel hardware. Standard operating temperature range 50°C .

The MSE-XT220 Laser Distance Sensor provides a highly accurate measurement reading. It is ideal for length, width, thickness, depth and height position determination.
 
Supplied as standard with a either RS232 or an optional RS422/RS485 serial interface with a 2400 to 38,400 Baud Rate & a programmable 4 - 20mA 16 BIT analog output.

Optional ProfiBus DP, ProfiNet, and Ethernet TCP/IP Interface Options are also available. 

The MSE-XT220 is a direct replacement for the Moduloc LT2000-XT and the MT2020-XT Laser Distance Measurement Sensor.
