TOPCON DL - 101C/102C


High order levelling Precision & Reliability

Topcon’s DL-101C/102C take accuracy and ease of operation to a higher level with its Advanced Image Processing Technology. The outstanding features make the DL-101C/102C ideal for high precision applications including the performance of 1st and 2nd order levelling and deformation monitoring.

Faster Automatic Measurement
When used with Topcon’s unique patterned staff, height and distance can be automatically determined digitally by the DL-101C/102C. Since it’s a fully automatic electronic measurement, there is no need to make an optical reading! You just sight the staff, focus, and press the measurement button. It’s that simple! The results appear in the clearly visible display window after about four seconds.

Highly Accurate Measurements
The fully automatic measuring ability and digital display of the DL-101C/102C excludes any reading errors, writing mistakes in the field book, and other possible human-made errors. Consequently, the electronic measurement data is always more precise and more reliable as compared to the conventional visual measurement.

To improve accuracy a parallel plate micrometer can be fitted over the telescope objective. The parallel plate micrometer permits direct readings to 0.1mm and estimated readings to 0.01mm. This makes the NA2 and NAK2 an ideal precise level for deformation studies or industrial measuring tasks.

The NAK2 model has an internal glass circle for reading horizontal angles. Combined with the stadia calculation of distances from staff readings the NAK2 circle adds the application benefit of detail survey work.

Increased Productivity up to 50%
With Topcon’s DL-101C/102C, all levelling work can be carried out automatically, quickly and more economically as compared to the performance of conventional optomechanical levels. This effortless and error-free measurement makes it possible to have up to 50% increased productivity.

PCMCIA Memory Card System
The PCMCIA world standard memory cards can be used with DL-101C/102C. The 256KB and 128KB memory cards are available to expand the instrument’s internal memory capacity of 51KB. The internal memory can store up to 1.000 measurements. The PCMCIA memory card slot is concealed behind the internal battery. This ensures a watertight protection of the PCMCIA card.

Topcon Original Patterned Staff
Levelling staves of a variety of materials and lengths are available with the special Topcon pattern.

Operating functions/software:
N-times measurements (to get averaged result and standard deviation)

  • Horizontal distance measurement (to the staff)
  • Height determination of intermediate points
  • The display of difference in elevation (from the Backsight to the Foresight)
  • Design heights can be recalled from the PCMCIA card and a count down to zero for stake out the height
  • is displayed

  • Repeat measurement for recollection
  • Modifying the point number (before foresight measurement)
  • Selectable minimum units for reading
  • Manually input data
  • Alpha/Numeric input function
  • Swing correct function to reduce the effect of vibrations. This ensures accurate and stable reading even under windy or heavy traffic conditions.

Advanced applications:

  • Network levelling (1st to 4th order)
  • Deformation monitoring (monitoring and surveillance of ground subsidence)
  • Industrial surveying
  • Topographical surveys (line levelling, area levelling, levelling networks, contour-line surveys)
  • Road and Rail-laying construction (longitudinal profiles, cross-sections, setting-out of heights)
  • Tunnelling and mining
