LaserSpeed 8000-3 Instruction Handbook Introduction Introduction This manual describes the installation and setup of the LaserSpeed 8000 gauge. For daily routine usage, see the LaserSpeed 8000 Operator Guide. The Model LS8000-3 LaserSpeed® Non-contact Length and Speed gauge is an industrial, Laser-Doppler based instrument that measures the velocity and length of material. Due to the nature of the laser-based measurement, there is no physical contact with the material. This eliminates

LaserSpeed 8000-3 Instruction Handbook Installing the System Installing the System This section describes mounting, alignment and other installation concerns for the LS8000-3. The installation can be broken down into five steps: Mounting the gauge Aligning the gauge Connecting power to the gauge Connecting to the outputs Maximizing gauge performance Mounting the Gauge The LS8000-3 must be placed at the correct standoff distance from the moving material.

LaserSpeed 8000-3 Instruction Handbook Installing the System Mounting Distance When the material is within the depth of field, the gauge makes accurate measurements. Since the best signal comes from the center of the depth of field, the center is the source of the best measurements. This is because the two laser beams totally overlap at the center of the beam crossings and all of the laser power is used to form fringes. At the edges of the depth of field, however, some beam-crossing ar

LaserSpeed 8000-3 Instruction Handbook Installing the System coolant is blown off in the same direction the material is moving, the air velocity can add or subtract from the material’s velocity; this too may cause erroneous measurements. Air Wipe / Quick Change Window To prevent dust, dirt, and moisture from accumulating on the optical window the gauge can be fitted with an Air Wipe/Quick Change Window. Clean, instrument grade air (see Specifications section for details) is blown at l

Steam, mist, coolant on the material, ambient temperature, scale and slag may all affect the performance of the gauge. These environmental conditions may need to be modified as mentioned above in order to maximize the performance of the gauge. Mounting Location When mounting the gauge over the material, be sure the gauge i

LaserSpeed 8000-3 Instruction Handbook Installing the System Twinner Lines When mounting the gauge on a twinner line, the gauge should be positioned far enough from the twinner that the twist is set. If the gauge is placed close to the twinner, it may not be able to measure due to excessive vibration and the spin imparted on the wire due to the twisting motion. Moving the gauge down the line farther from the twinner may improve the gauge's ability to make measurements. Near Twinn
