FAQ

What is the maximum range of the LRF0815C?

The published range is ≥8,000 m to a 2.3 m x 2.3 m target, 30% reflectance, visibility ≥10 km. A range figure is only comparable together with the target and conditions it was measured on, so the condition is listed next to the value.

Which interface does the LRF0815C use?

The published communication interface is RS-422; TTL optional.

What laser wavelength does the LRF0815C use?

The published wavelength is 1535 ± 5 nm; laser safety entry: Class I stated in the module document. Final accessible-emission classification applies to the complete configuration..

How much does the LRF0815C cost?

The published single-unit price of the LRF0815C is $1,500, falling to $900 per unit at the largest published quantity band. Prices include shipping and are ordered directly from erdilrf.com.
