A-908 IR Receiver

DESCRIPTION
The A-908 IR Receiver is the standard wireless data receiver used with all Hamar wireless targets. It uses a robust, infrared, frequency-modulated technology that does not interfere with radio-based communication systems. The receiver has a range of up to 100 feet (30.5 M), depending on the target used, and an acceptance range of +/- 85º. Power is provided by a replaceable, 9V battery.

APPLICATIONS

  • Compatible with the following wireless targets/interfaces: S-650, A-1519,A-1519HR, A-1520 and R-359.

FEATURES

R-358/R-359 Computer Interface

View Datasheet [PDF, 521K]

DESCRIPTION

The R-358 computer interface, one of our newest generation of interfaces, provides high accuracy (.00002" or 0.0005 mm resolution) for downloading live target data into a computer and compact size (it is 25% the size of the R-355D). It attaches to the computer with an RS-232 cable and is powered by a lithium ion battery for long life and usage and automatically turns on when the target starts taking measurements. An AC adapter/charger is provided, and the unit features "charging" and "power" LED indicators.

The wireless R-359 computer interface operates with a sophisticated frequency-modulated, IR transmitter and is used with our A-908 Wireless Receiver. It can take any standard 2 or 4-axis wired target and transmit its alignment data via an infrared wireless link. It is compatible with Hamar Laser's second generation of computer alignment software.

APPLICATIONS

  • Coupling Alignment
  • Spindle Alignment
  • Machine Tool Geometry
  • Turbine Alignment
  • Bore and Extruder Alignment

FEATURES

  • .00002" (0.5 micron) resolution.
  • Powered by AC adapter or lithium ion battery.
  • LED charging and power indicators.
  • R-358 is compatible with all Hamar Laser's alignment software.
  • Wireless R-359 operates with frequency-modulated IR transmitter and supports Hamar Laser's second generation of computer alignment software.
  • Both interfaces can support two dual-axis, 2 two-axis targets (with optional splitter cable) or one 4-axis target.

SPECIFICATIONS

Size: 3.33" W x 1.20" H x 5.25" D (84.6 mm x 304.5 mm x 133.4 mm)
Weight: 12 oz. (0.3 kg)
Power: 3.5V, 1350 mAh Lithium Ion Rechargable Battery
Battery Life: 8 hours continuous operation
Operating Range: (R-359 only) Up to 50' with direct light of sight.





 

 

T-251 SCANNER TARGET PRE-AMPLIFIER

DESCRIPTION

The T-251 Scanner Target Pre-Amp is used with all Hamar continuously rotating lasers to allow the A-517 Single-Axis Scanning Target to communicate with a standard, two-axis readout or R-355 series interface. A switch on the side of the unit allows the user to select the readout or interface.

APPLICATIONS

  • For use with all continuously rotating laser system applications. Works with the R-307, R-307V and R-355.

SPECIFICATIONS

Connector: 8-pin CPC (female input, male output)
Interface: R-350 Computer Interface
Modes: R-307 Readout
R-355C+D Computer Interface(s)
