Topcon Positioning System (TPS) has expanded its RL-H series of rotating lasers with the introduction of a new self-leveling rotating laser, RL-H4C. The laser lays down a latest industry benchmark for general laser construction.
Construction Product Marketing Manager at TPS, Tony Vanneman said that all parts of the laser have latest design to provide users with optimum performance at an economical price. The laser coupled with the new laser sensor LS-80L has improved the operating diameter range to 800 m, which is an increase of over 100% when compared to the earlier models. The construction laser is the longest range available in the market, he informed.
The RL-H4C has a horizontal precision in the range of ¡Ó10 arc-seconds and self-leveling range of ¡Ó5„a. Its single-axis manual slope functionality enables it for grade-matching setting and its large dual handles make it s transportation and set up easier. It gets power from four D/LR20 alkaline batteries with a lifespan of 100 h or from Ni-MH rechargeable battery with a lifetime of 60 h. It can also be operated with AC power. It is IP66 protection and is resistant to water and dust.
Vanneman stated that the RL-H4C laser can be used in a number of applications such as site grading, checking excavations for patios, driveways, pools, fences and all kinds of remodeling tasks and setting up concrete work for footings and foundations.
