Laser distance meters for accurate short measurements
November 2016Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration
The Comtest Group has introduced the Fluke 414D, 419D and 424D laser distance meters, which deliver accurate, point-and-click measurements up to 100 metres, ideal for a broad range of building/construction, industrial, maintenance, and professional services applications. The range features:
• Integrated compass: provides a ‘heading’ for distance measurement.
• Inclination sensor assists with height tracking, levelling and indirect horizontal distance measurement when line of sight is blocked.
• Automatic end-piece correction: when measuring from an edge or corner, a built-in sensor detects the position of the bracket and automatically changes the reference point.
The rugged dust and splash-proof distance meters allow for easy measurement of hard to access areas, like high ceilings, without climbing a ladder. The three models provide the right features for a wide variety of applications.
Fluke 414D
• Measures up to 50 m with 1 button (accuracy of 2 mm).
• Easy, automatic math (add + subtract) for area and volume.
Fluke 419D
• Measures up to 80 m (accuracy of 1 mm).
• 3-line display plus storage for 20 complete displays.
• Tripod mountable.
Fluke 424D
• Measures up to 100 m.
• Feature-rich meter includes tilt sensor for hard to reach measurements, corner angle feature and compass.
