Benewake TF03-100 4-20mA Industrial LiDAR Sensor, Range: 0.1-100m

This specific version provides a standard industrial 4-20mA analog current loop output. The current signal is linearly proportional to the measured distance, making it directly compatible with PLC analog input modules, data loggers, and SCADA systems without requiring additional signal converters.

The sensor operates on a 12-24V DC power supply. The average current draw is ≤140mA at 12V and ≤80mA at 24V, with a total power consumption of ≤2W. Ensure your power source can provide stable voltage within this range and account for the voltage drop over the connected cable length.

A TTL-level serial debug port is provided for configuration and advanced diagnostics. You can connect this port to a USB-to-TTL adapter to use Benewake's configuration software or send serial commands to adjust parameters like frame rate, output scaling, and filtering. The primary 4-20mA output does not require configuration for basic operation.

Yes, the TF03-100 is designed for challenging environments. It features an IP67-rated enclosure for protection against dust and temporary water immersion, operates from -25°C to 60°C, and has high ambient light immunity (100 Klux) to perform reliably in direct sunlight, rain, and fog.

Accuracy (±10cm within 10m, 1% beyond) indicates how close a measurement is to the true distance. Repeatability (<3cm, 1σ) refers to the sensor's consistency in measuring the same distance under identical conditions. High repeatability ensures stable readings, which is critical for control loops and safety systems, even if a known offset (accuracy error) is present and can be calibrated out.
