Livox Avia 2 NF Fanless Long-Range LiDAR
Fanless Avia 2 configuration for directional long-range point-cloud integration. It supports Normal and Focus scan modes, but its manual sets temperature-dependent continuous-operation limits; review cooling, power and the exact NF configuration before specifying it.
Choosing this model
Read the product documentationSourcebotics selection notes, based on the published documentation.
Application fit
- Directional scanning projects that can accommodate a designed external cooling solution.
- Comparing broad Normal coverage with focused long-range acquisition.
Integration planning
- NF manual recommends ≤30 min at 25°C, ≤10 min at 45°C and ≤1 min at 65°C; external cooling must be assessed.
- Official clearance conflict: NF Product Information requires ≥50 mm around and ≥150 mm above; NF User Manual says ≥10 mm around on a metal plate ≥3 mm thick. Resolve the installation specification before enclosure design.
- Official power conflict: NF Product Information lists 50 W startup / 45 W stable at 25°C; NF User Manual lists 55 W startup / 50 W steady at regular temperature. The manual requires a supply capable of more than 55 W; confirm the delivered configuration.
- Use the Avia 2-specific breakout cable for testing; it is sold separately and must not be interchanged with other Livox breakout cables. Design deployment cabling for the required environment.
- ROS Driver 2 includes Avia2 examples; review and adapt the debugging driver before production use.
Selection considerations
- Avia, Avia 2 with fan and Avia2-NF are distinct configurations. The NF documentation does not establish unlimited fanless continuous operation.
- The 1000 m Focus cutoff uses 20% reflectivity and sufficient point-cloud integration time; it is not an unconditional object-detection guarantee.
- NF Product Information and User Manual disagree on clearance, power and optical-window cleaning guidance. Confirm the applicable revision before installation or maintenance.
- The September 10, 2026 v40.01.0506 release note is labeled Avia 2. Confirm package support for the exact NF hardware and serial number before updating.
- NF stock, delivery date, order minimum, warranty and destination documents require a quotation; no manufacturer reference price has been adopted as a Sourcebotics offer.

Configuration & quotation
Specify the exact model or variant, required interfaces and accessories, quantity and delivery destination. Use the quotation to confirm the supplied configuration, current availability and commercial terms.
Ask for the current datasheet, delivery schedule, warranty scope and any documentation required for your destination. Use our procurement checklist to prepare the requirements, or download the worksheet.
Discuss this configurationFAQ
Does fanless mean continuous operation without extra cooling?
No. The NF manual recommends at most 30 minutes at 25°C, 10 minutes at 45°C and 1 minute at 65°C under its stated conditions. Assess external cooling and resolve the conflicting clearance guidance before deployment.
Can I use the Avia software package with Avia 2 NF?
The NF manual points to Livox SDK2 and ROS Driver 2. SDK2 added Avia2 support in version 1.4.0. Original Avia belongs to a different SDK generation; confirm firmware, driver and device configuration together.
Which power rating should I use for the NF model?
The NF Product Information states 50 W startup and 45 W stable at 25°C. The NF manual instead lists 55 W startup and 50 W steady at regular temperature and asks for a supply capable of more than 55 W. This documentary conflict remains unresolved.
Is Avia 2 NF currently in stock?
Official NF documentation is publicly listed, but this review did not establish stock, lead time, regional warranty or an NF selling price. Request a configuration-specific quotation.
