Mechanical and Environmental Parameters
Mechanical Parameters
The TR 2200-00402 has a sturdy design with a gross weight of 1.8 kg, suitable for heavy-duty industrial use. It features four M16x1.5 connectors in a radial position, allowing flexible cable routing. The sensor uses Phoenix Contact Print-Clamps (3.5 mm grid, 55° connection direction) rated for 10A / 160V.
The terminal block supports various conductor sizes: AWG 26-16; rigid cables (0.14–1.5 mm²); flexible cables (0.14–1 mm²); flexible cables with wire end sleeves (0.25–0.5 mm², with or without plastic sleeve). This versatility simplifies wiring with different cable types.
Environmental Parameters
The TR 2200-00402 has a standard protection class of IP65, effectively preventing dust ingress and water splashing. It operates in a standard temperature range of 0…+50 °C, with an optional range of -30…+50 °C for cold environments. The storage temperature (dry condition) ranges from -20…+75 °C.
It can withstand relative humidity up to 98% (non-condensing) and has a temperature drift of 1 ppm/°C for all measuring ranges (≤125m, ≤170m, ≤195m, ≤240m). The sensor resists vibration up to 50 m/s² (sine 50–2000 Hz) and shock up to 300 m/s² (half sine 11 ms), ensuring stable performance in high-vibration settings.

Installation Guide
Preparation Steps
Installing the TR 2200-00402 is straightforward with proper preparation. First, gather the necessary tools: a screwdriver, wire stripper, cable cutter, and wrench. Before installation, inspect the sensor for any damage during transportation.
Check that the model (TR 2200-00402) matches your application requirements, especially the measuring range and interface type. Prepare the mounting surface and ensure it is flat and stable to prevent vibration. Review the X1 terminal assignments and LED statuses to avoid wiring errors and simplify troubleshooting.
Prepare the power supply (18-27 VDC), CAN bus cables, and programming cables. Ensure the cables are compatible with the sensor’s RS485 output and CAN/DeviceNet interface. If using reflective foil, prepare it for placement on the target surface.
Mounting the Sensor
Choose a suitable mounting position that allows unobstructed laser access to the target surface. Ensure the sensor is aligned correctly with the target to avoid measurement errors. Use the appropriate screws to fix the sensor to the mounting surface, ensuring the installation is firm and free of looseness.
Position the radial M16x1.5 connectors in a location that avoids cable damage and allows easy access for wiring and maintenance. If using the optional integrated heating, ensure the sensor is mounted in a location that allows proper heat dissipation.
Attach the reflective foil to the target surface (if required) to enhance measurement accuracy, especially for long-distance applications. Ensure the foil is clean and free of debris to avoid signal interference.
Wiring and Parameterization
Connect the power supply, CAN bus, and I/O cables to the X1 20-pole screw clamp connector. Follow the terminal assignments carefully:
- Connect Pin 7 to 0V-supply voltage and Pin 8 to 18-27 VDC US-supply voltage. Double-check polarity to avoid damage.
- Connect Pin 15 to GNDI (CAN signal reference), Pin 16 to the cable shield, Pins 17-18 to CAN_H, and Pins 19-20 to CAN_L.
- Connect Pin 9 (RS485 –) and Pin 10 (RS485 +) to the programming tool (TRWinProg) for parameterization.
- Connect external input/output devices to Pins 2 (US-output) and 3 (US-input), using Pin 1 as Signal GND.
- Leave Pins 4-6 and 11-14 open (N.C.)—do not connect any wires to these pins.
Use the TRWinProg tool to parameterize the sensor. Adjust resolution, node-ID, intensity, and other parameters to match your application needs. Set the CAN transmission rate (125, 250, 500 kbit/s) via DIP-switches.
Testing and Usage Notes
After wiring and parameterization, power on the sensor and control system. Check the status LEDs to verify normal operation (OK LED green, RUN LED steady green). Perform a test by measuring distances across the sensor’s range to ensure accurate feedback.
During use, avoid exposing the sensor to temperatures outside its operating range. For cold environments, use the optional integrated heating (-30…+50 °C). Keep the laser lens and reflective foil clean and free of debris to maintain measurement accuracy.
Do not connect any wires to the restricted N.C. pins (4-6, 11-14), as this can damage the sensor. Ensure the cable shield is connected to Pin 16 to maintain electromagnetic compatibility and signal integrity. Regularly inspect the wiring and connections for tightness and corrosion.
