DL | Laser rangefinders

DL is a family of impulse laser rangefinders, the operation of which is based on the time of flight measurement. The transmitter is built using a pumped diode solid‑state laser with an eye‑safe wavelength of 1534 nm. Depending on the device model, the maximum repetition incidence of the measurement can reach 10 Hz. Thanks to using an avalanche photo diode in the receiving circuit, it was possible to achieve high detection sensitivity. The rangefinder’s logic circuit allows measuring with a resolution of half a metre. Target discrimination is between 25 and 50 metres. Rangefinders have a wide range of control interfaces, and integration into a system is straightforward. They are usually part of optoelectronic heads in fire control systems but can also be used in surveillance systems.
