Survey Instruments
The survey
instruments we carry are those most requested by surveyors, landscape
architects and environmental professionals. These are precision instruments
for exacting work. As with any of our instruments, our technicians are happy
to provide instruction in their use for our customers. The rental of any site
includes a tripod and telescoping fiberglass measuring rod. Tripods and Rods
can also be rented separately.

Sokkia
C30 Auto Level
Hardy,
shock-resistant, and weatherproof, these units are our most often
requested survey levels. Using "stada lines" this instrument can
be used to determine distance as well as elevation and angle. Ideal for
the production of site plans and maps, or for taking a large number of
measurements from one location when it is impractical to use a measuring
tape. It makes it easier to map sites with bushes or other obstacles. |

Sokkia
C31 Auto Level
The same Sokkia
quality instrumentation. Slightly larger than the C30 this unit has
somewhat better resolution. Better adapted to longer distances on large
sites. |

Nikon
AC-2s Auto Level
Superior
optical quality makes this survey level one of the most precise on the
market. Easy to set up and level, this instrument is preferred by some of
our customers. |

Topcon
RL-H3C
This self-leveling
laser allows a single person to determine groundwater elevations at a
site. Instead of requiring two people, one to hold the measuring rod and
one to look through the site, renting this unit will save money and
manpower. Following setup, the unit sends out a laser plane that is
automatically 100% level. One person with a measuring rod can quickly find
the elevation of any point within site of the unit. This unit is excellent
for any situation where relative elevations are important. |

Schonstedt
Magnetic Locator
This is the preferred
magnetic locator. It can be used as a basic metal detector or to locate
underground objects and structures conductively or inductively. In the
conductive mode it sends a radio signal through metal and detects its
signal allowing the user to trace vent pipes to their respective
underground storage tanks. The inductive mode transmits a signal that
resonates with buried metal objects. By traversing the site with the
detector the location of buried cables and objects can be determined. |
