Introducing the new NET05X, 0.5" 3D Station August 2009 Capelle a/d IJssel, The Netherlands, August 2009, SOKKIA BV, European head office proudly announces the release of the NET05X - a new manual 3D Station that provides unparalleled precision in broad range of applications such as surveying, engineering, construction and industrial three-dimensional measurement. 0.5" Angle Accuracy The combination of market-proven absolute rotary encoders and advanced Independent Angle Calibration System (IACS) provides the industry’s highest 0.5" angle accuracy. Sub-millimeter EDM SOKKIA’s cutting-edge distance measurement technology ensures unmatched comprehensive performance. With reflective sheet targets, NET05X provides sub-millimeter "0.5mm+1ppm" accuracy within the range of 200m (650ft.). NET05X measures standard prisms with "0.8mm+1ppm" precision up to 3,500m (11,480ft.), providing the industry’s highest accuracy at over 1,000m (3,200ft.). Reflectorless measurement can be performed with "1mm+1ppm" precision to 100m (320ft.) range. Measurement time is as fast as 2.4 seconds in fine mode. Superior Telescope Besides the 2.5" high resolving power, the superior telescope provides unmatched brightness and sharpness. Perfectly Aligned Laser Pointer The red laser pointer utilizes the EDM measuring beam, and is therefore perfectly aligned with the telescope axis. Ideal for precise setting out and alignment tasks indoor or underground conditions. Target Illumination Prisms or sheet targets can be easily located in dim lighting conditions using the high-intensity white LED built into the telescope. Advanced User-Interface NET05X incorporates Windows CE operating system with highly visible touch screen display panels. Fully illuminated keyboard allows easy operation in tunnels, at night, and in low lighting conditions. IP65 Environmental Protection IP65 dust- and water-resistant body, the highest rate among the Windows incorporated total stations, stands up under dusty or wet conditions. Weatherproof multi-port maintains IP65 protection even with a data cable or an external battery connected. Bluetooth® Wireless Communication Built-in Class 1 Bluetooth modem allows wireless communication with an external controller or PC to a range of 200m (650ft.). Wide Variety of Reflectors SOKKIA’s full line of innovative reflectors maximizes measurement accuracy and efficiency.
