Professional Application FAQ

• What applications benefit most from the 500 Hz scanning speed?

The high 500 Hz frequency of the LMS400-2000 benefits applications requiring real-time monitoring of fast-moving objects or rapid level changes in filling processes.

• How does the visible red laser assist with installation?

The 650 nm visible red laser creates a clearly visible line, making alignment and setup significantly easier compared to infrared lasers that require special viewing equipment.

• What is the advantage of configurable angular resolution?

Configurable resolution from 0.1° to 1.0° allows optimization between detailed scanning (0.1°) for small objects and faster processing (1.0°) for larger area monitoring.

• Can this scanner monitor multiple zones simultaneously?

Yes, with up to 50 measurement columns and configurable regions of interest, the scanner can monitor multiple zones or different height levels within its scanning range.

• How does the level control application function work?

The integrated level control measures material heights in configured columns and provides outputs via digital signals, analog values, or data telegrams for process control systems.
