# Benewake TFA170-L **Artikelnr.:** PM-7107 | **HAN:** TFA170-L [Zum Premium-Modellbau Shop](https://www.premium-modellbau.de/search?sSearch=PM-7107) TFA170-L is an Industrial-Grade long-range LiDAR based on the pulsed time of flight principle and it is designed for the Long-range single-point up to 170m with a unique design of the optical system and the signal processing circuit it offers improved detection performance in a compact size. It Optimizes various compensation algorithms, with unique optics, electricity, and algorithms to achieve stability, precision, sensitivity, and high-speed distance measurement. It can work under a strong light environment and rain, fog, and snow conditions. Widely used in terrain-following of drones, the collision avoidance of cars, intelligent transportation, and industrial safety warnings. \_x000D\_ The sensor can output up to 1000 readings per second. It can detect points up to 170m with an accuracy of 1% and has a narrow FoV of 0.5°. \_x000D\_ It operates on 12V and can connect to a microcontroller, PLC, and computer through a UART interface. Please go through the development manual under the Technical Details Tab for the detailed commands and responses by the sensor. \_x000D\_ \_x000D\_ \_x000D\_ **Features:** \_x000D\_ \_x000D\_\* Operating Voltage: 12V DC \_x000D\_\* Communication: RS232(suitable for up to 2m cables.
