The R1000 distance sensor with Pulse Ranging Technology (PRT) offers a constant accuracy of < 1 mm over the entire measuring range up to 300 m, making it suitable for high-precision distance measurement. With an outstanding small housing depth in this performance class, it is particularly space-saving. Additionally, the new R1000 distance sensor from Pepperl+Fuchs is now available with PROFINET interface. Read more about its convenient installation and setup, powerful distance measurement method, and versatile application possibilities.

The new R1000 distance sensor is designed for seamless integration into confined spaces, including small vehicles and lifting applications. With its compact dimensions and exceptionally small housing depth of just 81 mm, the sensor fits into even the tightest installation spaces. Its internal housing design based on a metal frame ensures outstanding durability and makes it ideal for demanding industrial environments.
With an accuracy of less than 1 mm, the R1000 ensures highly accurate non-contact positioning across the entire measurement range—including over long distances up to 300 m. This level of performance is made possible by the integrated Pulse Ranging Technology (PRT) which is the most precise distance measurement method available in industrial environments. Unlike comparable technologies, PRT maintains its high accuracy consistently, regardless of the measurement distance. The sensor also delivers reliable results under challenging ambient conditions, such as intense ambient lighting, dust, or dirt, ensuring maximum performance and operational stability in demanding applications.
In fast-paced applications like warehouse systems, crane automation, or automated parking solutions, high measuring speed and accuracy are essential. With integrated PRT, the R1000 delivers reliable, high-precision performance—even under mechanical stress from vibration or shock.
