Assembly Instructions

optoNCDT 1700

Proper Use

The optoNCDT1700 is designed for use in industrial areas. It is used for measuring displacement, 
distance, position and elongation for in-process quality control and dimensional testing.
The sensor may only be operated within the limits specified in the technical data, see instruction 
manual, Chap. 3.4. The sensor should only be used in such a way that in case of malfunctions or 
failure personnel or machinery are not endangered. Additional precautions for safety and damage 
prevention must be taken for safety-related applications.

Warnings

Connect the power supply in accordance to the safety regulations for electrical equipment. The 
power supply may not exceed the specified limits.

 

> Danger of injury, damage to or destruction of the sensor

Avoid continuous exposure to spray on the sensor. Avoid exposure to aggressive materials (washing 
agent, penetrating liquids or similar) on the sensor. Mount the sensor only to the existing holes on a 
flat surface. Clamps of any kind are not permitted.

 

> Damage to or destruction of the sensor

Avoid shock and vibration to the sensor. Protect sensor cable against damage.

 

> Damage to or destruction of the system, failure of the measuring device

Laser Class

The optoNCDT1700 sensors operate with a semiconductor laser with a wavelength of 670 nm (visi-
ble/red, ILD 1700) respectively 405 nm (visible/blue, ILD 1700BL).
The following warning labels are attached to the cover (front and/or rear side) of the sensor housing:

LASER RADIATION

Never deliberately look into the laser beam! Consciously close your eyes or 
turn away immediately if ever the laser beam should hit your eyes.

The switching inputs for laser on/off and 
setting masters/mid-point are similarly 
wired. Connect pin 9 with pin 6 in order 
to activate the laser. If the connection is 
released, the laser is deactivated.

Proper Environment

 - Protection class:   

IP 65 (only with sensor cable connected)

Lenses are excluded from protection class. Contamination of the lenses leads to impairment or 
failure of the function.

 - Operating temperature:  0 ... 50 °C (+32 up to +122 °F)
 - Storage temperature:  

-20 ... 70 °C (-4 up to +158 °F)

 - Humidity:  

 

5 - 95 % (no condensation)

 - Ambient pressure: 

Atmospheric pressure

Sensor Mounting

The sensors of the series  
optoNCDT 1700 are optical sen-
sors with which is measured in 
the μm area.

i

Make sure that mounting 
and operation is handled 
carefully!
Mount the sensors with 
three screws type M4. The 
bearing surfaces surround-
ing the fastening holes 
(through holes) are slightly 
raised.
