Sokkia Digital Theodolites DT50L Series (DTL55-5")

Sokkia Digital Theodolites DT50L Series (DTL55-5″)

The DT55L is an angular measurement device with laser beam technology. The accuracy of DT55L is 5”. The tilt angle compensation is present in this theodolite model. The display of DT55L is double-faced.

All the Theodolite you’ll need

High-accuracy measurements
Ultra-rugged IP66 dust and heavy rain protection
Compact and lightweight
Long-lasting Li-ion or AA battery life
Easy-to-use LCD backlit display(s)
Precise laser pointer guidance
Embedded tilt sensor

Make your next job a snap

With the DT50 Series, you’ll be up and working fast, thanks to its simple interface and large, easy-to-see backlit LCD. There’s an optical plummet that makes set up over a control point easy, and a tilt sensor that provides ±3-minute angle correction. The DT50 Series features two magnification choices of 26x and 30x, a super-short 3 ft. minimum focus distance for those tight areas, and angle accuracies of 5, 7, and 9 arc seconds.

Laser pointer

Add a whole new dimension of accuracy and confidence to your alignment jobs with our unique DT50L Series featuring a red Class II laser beam. Use it anywhere on
your site and see clearly in direct sunlight up to 165 ft. Now you can quickly and accurately place anchor bolts at regular intervals on a line, set an angle, and use the beam to verify your tape measure is properly aligned for the next stake or “sight in” footers, frames, and tilt-up walls.

The ultimate in continuous operation

The DT50/DT50L Series provides up to 30 workdays of operation in Angle Measurement Mode on 4 AA or optional Li-ion batteries, better than any other model. When it is time to change batteries, it’s as easy as snapping out the old ones and snapping in the new ones.

Durability, accuracy, and value

The DT50 Series represents the highest accuracy and value in digital theodolite technology. Our 80 plus years of experience manufacturing the world’s most precise optical survey instruments shines through in the precision, durability, and advanced technology found in each DT50.
