OPTIMESS WSH
The OPTIMESS WSH is a high-precision, ultra-fast laser scanner specially designed for measuring the position of contact wires on rail vehicles. This innovative and robust laser scanner delivers reliable results even under difficult conditions thanks to its high measurement frequency and precision. The various protection options and intelligent interface make it ideal for use in demanding environments such as catenary wire position measurement on railway vehicles.
Characteristics
- Maximum measurement frequency: 1 MHz (one million points per second)
- Rotation speed: Up to 400 profiles per second
- Measurement range: Up to 5 meters
- Scan angle: 60 degrees
- Sunlight sensitivity: Insensitive
- Protection class: IP 67 (dustproof and protected against temporary submersion)
- Operating temperature range: -20 to +50 °C
- Intelligent controlled window heating: Prevents the protective windows from fogging up in high humidity.
Interface
- Connection: Robust Core Series™ connectors from Fischer®, which meet the IP68 standard even when unplugged.
- Power supply and data transfer: Two separate cables.
- Data transmission: Via Gigabit Ethernet (GigE).
- Data processing: Easy processing with the supplied SDK.
The OPTIMESS WSH is mainly used worldwide to measure the position of catenary wires. It is typically mounted on the roof of railway vehicles. Additional compensation for vehicle movement can be achieved with the optional OPTIMESS 2D sensors. Other applications include all areas where precise surface measurement is required.
Options
- Protective housing: Provides mechanical protection and extends the temperature range through internal ventilation.
- Ventilation: Allows use outside the standard operating temperatures.
- Airknife: Keeps the protective window clean with a strong airflow.
- Shutter:Closes and protects the protective glass when not in use.
