Millimeter-Precise Accuracy—Even Across Long Distances
27
The R1000 distance sensor from Pepperl+Fuchs combines Pulse Ranging Technology (PRT) with a PROFINET interface to deliver constant accuracy of <1 mm over measuring ranges up to 300 m. This makes it a powerful choice for applications requiring high-precision distance measurement. Despite its performance class, the R1000 features an exceptionally compact housing depth, making it a space-saving solution for modern industrial environments.
Engineered for confined installations—such as small vehicles, cranes, and lifting systems—the R1000’s housing depth is just 81 mm. Its robust metal-frame construction provides long-lasting durability, ensuring reliable operation even in harsh industrial conditions.
The R1000 streamlines setup with integrated M6 threaded holes for direct mounting—no extra accessories required. For long-range use, a separate mounting system supports fine alignment and adjustment. The visible red laser spot further simplifies sensor positioning. A range of flexible accessories—including quick clamps, adjustment systems, and deviation mirrors for 90° deflection—make it adaptable to virtually any application.
With an accuracy of less than 1 mm across its full 300 m range, the R1000 ensures highly reliable, non-contact positioning. Its Pulse Ranging Technology (PRT) outperforms conventional methods by maintaining consistent accuracy regardless of distance. The sensor also delivers stable results in demanding environments, such as areas with strong ambient light, dust, or dirt.
Designed for high-speed, high-demand operations, the R1000 excels in warehouse automation, crane systems, and automated parking solutions. Thanks to PRT, it maintains precision and reliability even under mechanical stress such as vibration or shock.
