Glass-Fiber Coupled Optical Head Laser 

The model LD90-3-GF with glass-fiber coupled optical head makes use of the time-of-flight technique to determine the distance of a remote target.  It measures the transit-time between transmission and reception of a short laser pulse.

With the LD90-3-GF measurements can be performed with high accuracy, interference immunity, and excellent reliability. The serial interface allows communication and operation of the instrument. Furthermore, the LD90-3-GF can be equipped with the various digital and analog data outputs frequently used in industry.

The measuring system consists of a lightweight and small optical head and a separate electronics box, connected by a duplex glass-fiber cable with connectors. Its length can be chosen from 33 feet (10 m) up to more than 330 feet (100 m).
