Details

Designed for robotics and industrial automation, the SK‑A100 series combines a real‑time digital display with flexible I/O options including TTL/UART, RS485 Modbus RTU, and 4–20 mA.

An IP67-rated aluminum housing and clear 4‑digit LED readout make integration and on-site checks straightforward.

Choose the interface that matches your controller and wiring—UART/TTL for simple serial links, Modbus RTU over RS485 for industrial networks, or 4–20 mA for analog PLC inputs.

Multiple measurement modes support both single-shot checks and continuous monitoring, with laser safety class details provided for proper deployment.

Common uses include robotic arm material level tasks and automated equipment where stable single-point distance feedback is needed.

Suitable for long-range positioning and safety monitoring projects such as crane anti-collision and tunnel/metro infrastructure work.


Mechanical drawings help confirm fit for brackets, enclosures, and tight mounting locations before installation.
