General information
The laser measurement system measures distances against a reflective tape (reflector).
The reflective tape is available pre-mounted on an aluminium plate or as self-adhesive tape.
Different sizes of reflective tape are available for various measurement distances and instal-
lation sites.
Notice
!
On the front side of the reflector is a stick-on label with the designation "TOP". Particularly
for measurement distances greater than 120 m, it is important to always mount the reflector
with the
reflector side labelled with "TOP"
so that it
has the same alignment as the M 12
connections
of the AMS 200:
• M 12 connections of the AMS 200
on top
–> TOP on reflector

Attention
!
The range, accuracy and consistency specified in the technical data for the laser measure-
ment system are achieved only when using the reflective tape specified by Leuze electronic.

Specifications of reflectors
The reflective tape consists of a white, microprism-based reflective material. The beam
reflection system is located under a hard, highly transparent, protective coating. The adhe-
sive tape is covered with a protective foil.
Attention
!
For applications in low-temperature areas less than -10 °C, the max. distance may be affect-
ed when measuring distances greater than 120 m. For distances greater than 120 m we rec-
ommend "floating" mounting of the reflective tape, i.e. the edge of the foil may only be
fastened or secured with an additional adhesive tape. For measurement distances greater
than 120 m avoid full-surface adhesive mounting.
