Teledyne FLIR PTU-D100 E Pan-Tilt Unit

Each PTU‐D100 E series unit includes a model number that is located on the base of the unit. This number lists the options present on that particular unit.
Different options may require specialized instructions, and this section will help to choose the appropriate configuration.

The PTU‐D100 E series model number appears as follows:

The following configuration and options are available for the PTU‐D100E:

• EX Gears: The PTU‐D100E with EX gears provides additional torque with slower axis speeds for heavier loads.
• Bracket Mount: Payloads can be mounted on the top and/or side. A number of bracket options are available to suit each application.
• Bottom Base Connector: The PTU‐D100E can be configured with the base connector located on the bottom of the unit, which is useful for pole‐mounted applications.
• Slip Ring: The PTU‐D100E is available with or without a slip ring for continuous 360° panning.
• Wiring: Different payload pass‐through wiring options are available for passing signals through the PTU to the payload.
• Range of Motion: If needed, you may request special limits.

EX Gears

The PTU‐D100E with EX gears increases the maximum payload rating from 15 lbs. to 25 lbs. by providing additional torque at reduced axis speeds.

Part Number:

D100E‐S_‐__‐000‐SS (standard gears)

D100E‐V_‐__‐000‐SS (D100E‐EX gears)

Bracket Mount

The PTU‐D100E accepts payloads using top or side mounting. Side mounting offers the higher payload rating because it reduces tilt axis torque.

The PTU‐D100E itself can be mounted in any orientation; however, consideration should be given to gravity and torque effects depending on PTU orientation and payload mounting orientation and balance.

Top Mount

PTU‐D100E with a top bracket and one or two side brackets -

D100E‐_T‐__‐000‐__ (Top Mount)

plus one bracket : 

D100‐BKT‐LSTD (qty. 1) or two brackets : D100‐BKT‐LSTD (qty. 2)

Bottom Base Connector

Slip Ring

Payload Wiring

PTU‐D100E units equipped with an internal slip ring are available with internal pass‐through wiring, which provides a 19‐pin MIL‐C‐26402 female receptacle at the top of the PTU near the payload location to connect video, power, and other signals. (The mating connector is provided to facilitate cable construction if needed.) These signals then pass through the PTU, into the connector at the base of the unit, and the cable harness (if purchased). This option allows you to reduce the amount of external cables and eliminate potential damage to external cables.

• The payload receptacle contains lines for Video 1, Video 2, payload power, and general pass‐through lines.
• The base receptacle contains lines for Video 1, Video 2, payload power, general pass‐through lines, PTU control (RS‐232, RS‐485), and PTU power.

PL01 Wiring

PL01 allows you to route signals to the payload as shown in the table via 10 dedicated conductors. A mating connector for cable construction is included.

Part Number:
D100E‐__‐_S‐000‐__

PL02 Wiring

PL02 allows you to route signals to the payload as shown in the table on the previous page via 13 dedicated conductors. A mating connector for cable construction is included.

Part Number:

D100E‐__‐_E‐000‐__

PL17 Wiring

PL17 gives you the maximum number of conductors for signals to be routed from the base of the pan tilt to the payload connector. A mating connector for cable construction is included.

Part Number:

D100E‐__‐_Q‐000‐SS

Range of Motion

The PTU‐D100E has the following standard factory pan and tilt axis limits. Factory limits define the range of motion allowed for an axis when limits are enabled, and that axis cannot travel beyond those limits.

The PTU‐D100E also includes a slip ring that allows continuous 360° pan‐axis movement. 

Pan Range Options

Part Number:

D100E‐__‐__‐000‐S_ (std.)

Tilt Range Options

Part Number:

D100E‐__‐__‐000‐SS (std)

TILT‐RANGE‐180 (+/‐ 90° tilt)

SIDE MOUNT

In addition to the PTU E Series with the standard top bracket, you may order one or two optional side-mount brackets. 

PTU power supply unit. 30VDC output, 110/220VAC input.

Dimensions: 3.44”W x2.01”Hx7.61”L.

Part Number:

PTU APS 30V NA (North America) or

PTU APS 30V EC (Europe)

Note: Input voltages under 30V can reduce the maximum speed of the unit by an amount that is proportional to the voltage difference.
