SICK LMS511-20100 2D Laser Scanner for Outdoor and Indoor Use

Product Introduction

The SICK LMS511-20100 belongs to the LMS511 series. This 2D laser scanner works in both outdoor and indoor environments. It features a PRO variant with high resolution. The device uses an infrared light source at 905 nm with laser class 1 safety. Moreover, it scans across a 190° horizontal aperture. It supports scanning frequencies of 25 Hz, 35 Hz, 50 Hz, 75 Hz, and 100 Hz. Therefore, it handles many industrial detection tasks. The LMS511-20100 also offers angular resolution from 0.042° to 1°. This makes it suitable for field evaluation and object detection.

Technical Specifications

The SICK LMS511-20100 provides a working range of 0.2 m to 80 m. At a 10% remission factor, the scanning range reaches 26 m. Measurement accuracy is ±12 mm. Additionally, the sensor evaluates up to 5 echoes. The spot size divergence is 4.7 mrad. At the viewing window, the spot size is 13.5 mm. In 26 m, it becomes 136 mm. In 40 m, it reaches 202 mm. The response time is ≥10 ms.

Angular resolution options include 0.042°, 0.083°, 0.1667°, 0.25°, 0.333°, 0.5°, 0.667°, and 1°. The scan field flatness is ±0.72° combined. Typical conical error is 1 sigma value at -0.11° ± 0.1°. Typical tilt is 1 sigma value at +0.15° ± 0.08°. The sensor also features self-heating with additional integrated heating. The LMS511-20100 includes 10 field sets and 10 simultaneous evaluation cases. Filter options cover echo, fog, particle, average, and glare filters.

Systematic error is ±25 mm from 1 m to 10 m. It is ±35 mm from 10 m to 20 m. Statistical error is 7 mm from 1 m to 10 m. It is 9 mm from 10 m to 20 m. These values are typical and depend on environmental conditions.

Mechanical and Environmental Parameters

The SICK LMS511-20100 uses an AlSi12 housing in gray RAL 7032. The window material is polycarbonate with a scratch-resistant coating. Its enclosure rating is IP65 and IP67 according to EN 60529. Protection class is III per IEC 61140:2016-11. The weight is 3.7 kg. Dimensions are 160 mm x 155 mm x 185 mm. The MTBF and MTTFD both exceed 100 years.

For connectivity, the sensor offers four M12 round connectors. Supply voltage is 24 V DC with ±20% tolerance. Power consumption is 22 W, plus 55 W heating typical. The LMS511-20100 supports Ethernet, TCP/IP, UDP/IP, serial RS-232, RS-422, CAN, and USB Mini-USB interfaces. Ethernet data transmission rates are 10/100 MBit/s. Serial rates range from 9.6 kBaud to 500 kBaud. CAN rates include 20 kBit/s, 500 kBit/s, and 1 MBit/s.

Digital inputs include 4 channels for digital, encoder HTL, and synchronization. Digital outputs include 6 channels. Optical indicators include 5 LEDs and a 7-segment display. Ambient operating temperature ranges from –30 °C to +50 °C. Storage temperature ranges from –40 °C to +70 °C. Ambient light immunity is 70,000 lx. Object remission ranges from 2% to >1,000% for reflectors.

Vibration resistance covers sine test 10 Hz to 150 Hz. Amplitude is 0.35 mm to 5 g over 20 cycles. Shock resistance is 15 g, 11 ms, 6 single shocks per axis. It also handles 10 g, 16 ms, 1,000 continuous shocks per axis. Impact resistance meets IK05, IK06, and IK07 per DIN EN 50102:09-1997. EMC emitted radiation and immunity follow industrial environment standards. However, this sensor does not constitute a safety component under machine safety legislation.

Installation Guide

First, mount the SICK LMS511-20100 on a stable bracket. Use the four M12 round connectors for power and data. Next, verify the supply voltage stays within 24 V DC ±20%. The sensor requires a clear view of the scan field. Avoid direct sunlight above 70,000 lx. Meanwhile, keep the window clean to maintain accuracy.

For network setup, use Ethernet TCP/IP or UDP/IP. The host and AUX functions support NTP. Serial RS-232 and RS-422 are available for legacy systems. CAN supports output extension and synchronization. USB Mini-USB serves as a service interface. After wiring, configure the 10 field sets and 10 evaluation cases. Finally, test the response time and filter settings. The LMS511-20100 works well in both outdoor and indoor environments.
