OverviewHelp
Distance measurement is a fundamental sensing technology.

A wide variety of processes have been used to address different types of distance sensing applications. Pepperl+Fuchs now - in contrast to our competitors – offers a complete sensor family based entirely on the superior Pulse Ranging Technology (PRT). Customers will no longer have to rely on the phase correlation method or other similar chip-based processes. The advantages of such processes - moderate costs and acceptable levels of accuracy- have now been replaced by PRT.

The modern Pulse Ranging Technology (PRT) delivers better parameters at a lower cost. Long range, accuracy, insensitivity to extraneous light, and attractive pricing combine to make an irresistible package. Concentrating on a single technology means Pepperl+Fuchs is the first supplier to offer the advantage of rapid and lower-cost developments. The Pepperl+Fuchs portfolio includes the following PRT distance measurement sensors:


Distance measurement sensors and distance sensors

MC7522_090505_11VDM28 Distance Sensor
The new, small VDM28 distance sensor uses Pulse Ranging Technology (PRT) to move it to the front of the market ahead of all comparable devices from a performance point of view. It is integrated into a compact housing from the standard series 28 sensor range. The universal VDM28 distance sensor can be used in a wide range of industries and applications.

 

MC7522_090401_02VDM54 Distance Sensor
The function of this special sensor is to measure the distance between two rail-mounted vehicles, primarily on overhead conveyors (EHB). Its large horizontal and vertical sensing range tracks the movement of the vehicles and returns reliable measurement results.

 

MC7522_090505_12VDM70 Distance Measurement Sensor
The measured values are transmitted via various integrated standard interfaces. Typical applications are simple measurement and positioning tasks.

 

 

VDM100 Distance Measurement SensorVDM100 Distance Measurement Sensor
The VDM100 distance measurement sensors are well-suited for larger distances up to 300 m. The repeat accuracy of all the devices in the range is 0.5 mm, with a resolution of 0.1 mm. SSI and fieldbuses are used as measured value interfaces. The sensors are used to position stock feeders to within a millimeter.
