Description
The Ermenrich PL40 optical level is designed for ground measurements: height differences, angles and distances. Its design uses a "pendulum" type compensator with a magnetic damper to reduce vibrations more effectively than similar devices that use an air damper. Because of this, the Ermenrich PL40 level is suitable for use on construction sites near heavy machinery that generates strong vibrations. It also copes better with vibrations caused by wind.
The level's optical elements provide 32x magnification. The working distance is 120 metres – at this distance the graduated scale with E on the levelling line is visible. The millimetre scale is visible at a distance of 50 metres. The instrument cannot be used in all weather conditions. It is protected against water splashes and dust particles. It is compatible with standard tripods with a 5/8" thread and is supplied with the necessary alignment tools.
The optical level is widely used by professionals, but it can also be useful for amateur construction work, for example when building a house or levelling terrain. Its capabilities are also useful for landscape design projects.
Please note the following: A telescopic staff and a tripod (not included in the kit) are required to take measurements with the optical level.
