LRF 3013 Integrator Manual

4 Integration

4.1 Mechanical Mounting & Handling
Open the packaging:
Be careful with ESD: The LRF module is sensitive to electrostatic discharge. Do not touch any
electronics or components unless protective measures are applied.
Be careful with EMC: To avoid / reduce noise emittance, noise susceptibility and coupling
between sources and receptors, the LRF module shall be mounted inside an electrical shielded
housing. EMC disturbance can cause wrong or no measurement results.
Be careful with optics: scratches and fingerprints on the optics will reduce range performance.
Front glass to mechanical part is not sealed and is therefore not gas or water tight.
Remove stickers on bench holes only before flushing the air out of the system, so that nitrogen
also fills the optical system of the LRF module.

4.2 Design recommendations

The mechanical interface drawing of LRF 3013 can be found in the appendix (chapter 9.2).
4.2.1

Preparation

The surface that the LRF module will be mounted on must be equally flat or preferable better than the
surface represented by the LRF's mounting pads. Please refer to the mechanical drawing in your LRF
package.
Tolerance of the positioning pins is recommended to be h6.
The tolerance of the positioning holes in the bench is H8.
All material inside the host system is recommended to be black matte, to avoid optical cross coupling
between the transmitter's and receiver's optical channels.
4.2.2

Mounting

When mounting the module onto the positioning pins, the module's positioning pin holes must be aligned
sufficiently well to the mating positioning pins, to avoid damage of the positioning holes.
The three screws must be tightened with a torque of 60 Ncm. The screws shall be made of steel A2.
The laser beam is aligned to the mechanical interface with a tolerance of ±3 mrad. The host
system must allow the LRF module to align with the tolerance of ±3 mrad to its main optical
axis.
