RIEGL Laser
Distance Meters
The sensors of the LD05 Series are based on precise
time-of-flight laser range measurement. Using stateof-the-art signal processing technique the sensors
provide accurate distance measurement for evencomplex multi-target situations, e.g. under badvisibility conditions due to rain, fog, dust, etc.
A lightweight stable aluminium housing, basic
types with pre-configured measurement modes,
as well as possible adaptions to customer
specific applications make the LD05 distancemeters suitable for a variety of applications inharsh industrial environments.
For operation in extremely exposed environments (like high temperature areas), thedistance meters of the LD05-GF Series
are offered. They consist of an opticalhead and a separate electronics box
connected by a duplex glass-fiber
cable of variable length from 3m tomore than 50m. Electronis unit andoptical head can be mounted
separately
accordingto
therequirements resulting from criticalenvironmental conditions.

(reflection coefficient ȡ

receiver lensAn electrical pulse generator periodically drives a semiconductor laser transmitter,emitting infrared laser pulses, which are collimated and emitted by the transmitter lens.
A receiver converts the optical echo signal into an electrical signal, which is digitizedinternally and subsequently processed by a subsystem for on-line full waveform analysis.
Sophisticated algorithms optimize the instruments' capabilities to measure the desired
target even in the presence of smoke, rain, fumes, or dust.
