1535nm Laser Rangefinder Module SFL1500AW

Key Selling Points

Class 1 Eye‑Safe Operation: Operating at a 1535nm wavelength with erbium glass laser technology, this rangefinder module ensures maximum safety for human eyes. To begin with, it fully complies with Class 1 eye‑safe standards and thus eliminates the risks typically associated with non‑eye‑safe laser systems. As a result, it stands as an ideal choice for both industrial and field applications where operator safety is paramount.

Multi‑Target Ranging Capability: Beyond its core ranging function, this module supports up to 3 targets simultaneously, enabling comprehensive distance measurement in complex scenarios. More specifically, it orders targets from nearest to farthest, thereby delivering critical data for security, surveying, and tactical applications where multiple objects must be tracked at once.

Range Gating Function: In addition to its multi‑target capability, this laser rangefinder module features configurable minimum distance gate settings. With this function, it effectively eliminates blind‑zone interference and suppresses unwanted echo signals. Accordingly, it significantly improves measurement accuracy in cluttered environments and ensures reliable data even under challenging conditions.

Compact & Lightweight Design: Furthermore, the module boasts a miniature form factor and an optimized mechanical mounting hole layout. This design offers unparalleled flexibility for integration into handheld devices, vehicle‑mounted systems, and gimbal payloads — all without compromising ranging performance or reliability.

Wide Temperature Adaptability: Moreover, the SFL1500AW operates flawlessly in extreme environments. Specifically, it functions stably across a temperature range of -40°C to 60°C, and users can safely store it at -25°C to 75°C. Therefore, it fits perfectly for outdoor operations and harsh industrial conditions.

Flexible Communication Interface: For seamless system integration, the module incorporates a standard RS422 serial interface with a default 115200 bps baud rate. Additionally, the 10‑pin connector provides comprehensive connectivity, including CAN bus and power enable control. As a result, this interface greatly simplifies system development and deployment.

Command Self‑Test Function: To further enhance system reliability, the module integrates a built‑in self‑test capability. This feature allows users to verify operational status and monitor key parameters — including APD temperature, high voltage values, and supply voltages — while also diagnosing potential issues. Consequently, it ensures system reliability before critical missions.

High Shock & Vibration Resistance: Finally, the SFL1500AW features robust mechanical construction, which enables reliable performance in demanding environments. Not only does it offer high shock resistance, but it also maintains stable operation under vibration conditions. As a result, it ideally suits UAV, vehicle‑mounted, and field deployment scenarios.
