Measured value output (raw data)
 electro-sensitive, active measurement technique
 measurement of objects with almost any shape
 measured value output for a second reflection pulse (e.g. in rain or on measurement through a window)
Integrated field application
 Up to 10 configurable evaluation fields (depends on LMS1xx variant)
 Monitoring of the evaluation field contours
 Switching of the evaluation fields using digital switching inputs
 Encoder inputs (not for LMS12x/LMS13x/LMS14x)
 Additional output of the evaluation field (unoccupied or infringed) via switching outputs or telegrams
LMS10x  Scanning range up to 20 m with > 13 % object remission (18 m with 10 % object remission)
 Indoor housing with protection class IP 65
 3 digital switching outputs
LMS11x  Scanning range up to 20 m with > 13 % object remission (18 m with 10 % object remission)
 Outdoor housing with protection class IP 67
 3 digital switching outputs
LMS12x
LMS173
 Scanning range up to 20 m with > 13 % object remission (18 m with 10 % object remission)
 Indoor housing with protection class IP 65
 Optimized for usage in object protection systems
 2 additionally digitale switching inputs
 Relay switching outputs

LMS13x
LMS182
Like LMS12x, however
 Outdoor housing with protection class IP 67
LMS14x Like LMS12x, however
 Scanning range up to 30 m with > 10 % object remission
 Outdoor housing with protection class IP 67
 Optimized for usage in object protection systems
 Relay switching outputs
LMS14x Core: the device sends the measured contour values via RS-232/Ethernet only with low refresh rate. The
data can only be used for visualization and configuration on the PC.
LMS15x Like LMS11x, however
 Scanning range up to 50 m with > 75 % object remission (18 m with 10 % object remission)
