■ Sokkia’s traditional opticsSokkia’s traditional optics have never been morerefined. Light is projected from the middle of anobjective lens and received along its periphery.When combined with a narrow measuring beam, thisdesign enables pinpoint measurement and is highlyeffective even with narrow objects. Furthermore, thenew telescope provides an extremely bright andsharp sight.

■ New advances with RED-tech EDM

Sampling image

Sokkia’s revolutionary digital signal processing technology, RED-tech, relies on a unique procedure for measurement beam analysis. Using anA/D converter, it simultaneously samples measuring signals in three different frequencies. Furthermore, RED-tech uses advanced software tocalculate distances. As a result, RED-tech ensures that the calculation method most suited to the condition of the measuring beam is selected. Italso is able to deliver greater accuracy, speed, and range.

And now, RED-tech has been furtherenhanced through the inclusion of improvedoptical and electronic components. Its newlight emitting and receiving optics provide theideal light path for capturing light withminimal loss. And its new highly tunableoptical filter, which captures multiple samplesof beams carrying the correct measurementinformation, gives you greater precision withdifficult-to-measure objects. Thanks to thesenew components and its advancedtechnology, RED-tech EDM paves the way tounprecedented distance measurementpossibilities.

■ Ultra-wide reflectorless measurement rangeFrom extra-long distances to remarkably short ones, the Series030R offers accurate reflectorless measurement over a tremendous range ofdistances. The Series030R total stations feature an IEC/FDA Class 3R laser, and cover a range from 0.3m to 350m (1ft. to 1,140ft.). Modelsequipped with an IEC/FDA Class 2/II lasers are also available as a factory option. These have a reach of up to 150m (490ft.).

kes Reflectorless EDM More Powerful Than Ever

Measure long distances by directing the laser beam at a reflector. When using a single AP prism, you canmeasure as far as 5,000m (16,000ft.)* at once, with an accuracy of ±(2 + 2ppm x D)mm. In addition, reflectivesheet targets may be used to get measurements of up to 500m (1,600ft.)** with ±(3 + 2ppm x D)mm precision.Choose from Sokkia’s wide selection of sheet targets to suit your needs. Rotating pin-pole targets, two-pointtarget for measuring hidden points, and many other innovative reflective targets are available.

* In good weather conditions. ** When using RS90N-K.

In the reflective sheet or prism modes, maximum laser output is automatically reduced to0.22mW. This is equivalent to the level of an IEC/FDA Class 1/I laser. The Series030R alsoincludes a safety filter in the telescope, which protects your eye from the laser beam if youhappen to sight a reflective prism or sheet target while in reflectorless mode.

The Series030R employs an ultra small-diameter visible laser to obtain measurements with pinpointaccuracy. Fine objects, as well as the corners of walls and other structures, can be measured precisely.You can also make accurate measurements through obstacles such as chain-link fences and treebranches.

■ Ultra-narrow visible laser for pinpoint accuracy

A

B

C

A Series030R: The ultra-narrow laser beam enables accurate measurements through obstacles such as chain-link fences, tree branches, etc. Broader beam models: Both the fence and wall get measured, which leads to erroneous measurement.

CSeries030R: Measurements at small incident angles, such as with manholes on the road surface, are handled with high precision by the ultra-narrow laser measuring beam. Broader beam models: Wider measuring beams end up covering a larger area than expected at small incident angles, resulting in measurements that are too long or short.

BSeries030R: The measuring beam is extremely narrow, so distances to walls and corners can be measured with pinpoint accuracy. Broader beam models: A wide measuring beam hits points near and far at the same time, resulting in inaccurate measurement.

■ Laser-pointer functionThe visible laser beam can be used as a convenient laser pointer for interior leveling work, verticalalignment, setting out, and other tasks.

■ Sokkia’s original absolute encoders

The Series030R total stations are equipped with Sokkia-developedabsolute encoders. These encoders feature the RAB (RAndom Bi-directional) code technology first used in the SDL30 digital level,which provides high stability and reliability. You do not need to resetfor 0 indexing at the start of a job, so surveying can begin from themoment you turn on the power. Work efficiency is also boosted bythe immediate display of azimuth whenever you restart the totalstation.

■ Triple-axis compensation for high reliability

Vertical and horizontal angles are compensated for by a dual-axiscompensator that detects the tilt of the total station in two directions.In addition, a collimation function corrects the deviation of thetelescope’s mechanical axis. Working together, these features offermaximum reliability with angle measurements.

■ Superior environmental protectionFeaturing advanced protection against dust and water theSeries030R total stations are able to withstand harsh environmentalconditions (IP64 compliant).

■ Large internal memory The large internal memory can store approx. 8,800 data points inSDR33 format. Its multiple job file structure allows you to create anunlimited number of job files.

SURVEY (SURV)

The Survey program greatly simplifies topography, traverse surveying, building face surveying, and other applications.

■ TopographyThe Series030R can average multiple observations for moreaccurate results. Tolerances are definable by the user. Thisprogram includes three types of convenient offset measurementfunctions: "two-distance offset," "single-distance offset," and "angleoffset" for hidden points that cannot be observed directly.

■ Traverse AdjustmentThe Traverse Adjustment program allows you to specify a sequenceof stations through which a traverse may be calculated andoptionally adjusted. The observations do not have to be made in thesame order as the traverse route.

■ Set CollectionThe Series030R averages observations collected on Face 1 andFace 2 of the instrument and also averages multiple sets ofobservations. The resulting observations can be used either fortraverse calculations or resection calculations.

■ Building Face SurveyThe Building Face Survey program allows points on both vertical andnon-vertical planes to be coordinated by angle-only-observations inorder to pick up details of a building where the prism cannot beplaced.
