Pepperl+Fuchs R2000 OBD30M Review: Specs and Uses of the 2-D LiDAR with Four Monitoring Fields
Updated: 7 days ago
The Pepperl+Fuchs R2000 OBD30M is a 2-D LiDAR that watches up to four zones and switches outputs when something enters them. The manufacturer does not publish a price. This review covers its specifications, features and uses.
Quick Verdict
Where the OMD versions stream raw measurements, the OBD30M evaluates them itself. You draw up to four monitoring fields of almost any shape around the sensor, link them in up to four times three levels, and it switches outputs when an object above 1 mm enters, in 30 ms plus one scan. No PC or controller programming is needed for basic presence and intrusion tasks. It scans 360° at 10, 20 or 30 Hz with 0.071° to 0.2° resolution and reaches 30 m. It is not a safety device. No price is listed.
