Description
Freiberg Compass Geological with Mirror and Collimator
Experience precision and reliability with the Freiberg Geological Compass, a top-tier instrument for accurate directional and inclination measurements. This advanced geological compass is an indispensable tool for professionals involved in reconnaissance, minor compass traverse measurements, and general field-geological work. Whether navigating complex terrains or conducting detailed geological surveys, this compass delivers the necessary accuracy and functionality.
Key Features:
-
Compass Circle: This circular device has a 45-mm diameter, a scale value of 2° (2 gon), and an estimation of 0.5° (0.5 gon), ensuring precise direction measurements.
-
Azimuth Circle: This circle has a 22mm diameter, a 5° (5 gon) scale value, and an estimation accuracy of 1° (1 gon), ideal for precise azimuth readings.
- Clinometer: Measures angles up to +90° (+100 gon) with a scale value of 2° (2 gon) and an estimation of 0.5° (0.5 gon), perfect for assessing inclinations.
- Contact Edge: This device provides a 70mm graduated length with a 1mm scale value, offering versatility in field measurements.
- Compact and Lightweight: Measuring 93 x 76 x 22 mm and weighing just 0.280 kg, this compass is designed for portability and ease of use in the field.
Extended Functionalities:
- Internal Mirror: Positioned on the dip measuring plate, the mirror assists in observing and reading the magnetic needle and graduated circle, enhancing measurement accuracy across various targets.
- Notch and Bead Sights: Designed for near-horizontal sightings in diverse terrains, improving navigational precision.
- Collimator Sighting Arrangement: This standout feature allows users to accurately aim at various terrain spots, regardless of inclination, combining direction and inclination measurements for topographic sighting. The collimator principle ensures consistent sighting accuracy, independent of the observer's eye accommodation power. When not in use, it can be easily detached.
- Ground Magnetic Needle: Mounted on the edge for precise directional readings, ensuring reliability in the field.
- Lockable Inclinometer: Guarantees accurate inclination measurements, making it ideal for geological assessments.
- Spirit Levels: Equipped with a circular spirit level for levelling and a lateral glass tube for measurements at hard-to-reach points, ensuring comprehensive functionality.
- Magnetic System: This system includes a permanent locking mechanism, which can be released during measurement with a simple push-button, ensuring faster setting times.
