Theodolites

Product Family: The DADI DE2A-AC is the autocollimation configuration within the DADI DE2A electronic theodolite series. It combines a 2″ absolute-encoder angle-measurement system with an integrated autocollimation function for industrial axis alignment, angular calibration, equipment installation and laboratory measurement.

What Is the DADI DE2A-AC?

The DADI DE2A-AC is the autocollimating electronic theodolite configuration within DADI's DE2A series. It is developed for industrial axis alignment, angular calibration and precision angular measurement applications where autocollimation is required in addition to conventional electronic angle measurement.

The instrument combines a 2″ absolute-encoder angle-measurement system with an integrated autocollimation function for observing and adjusting angular relationships between mechanical axes, fixtures and reference surfaces. The autocollimation system operates from 0.5 m to 20 m with 0.5″ resolution.

Core Features

2″ Absolute-Encoder Angle Measurement

The DE2A-AC uses an absolute encoder angle-measurement system with 2″ angular accuracy and a minimum reading of 1.0″. Supported angle units include DEG, MIL, GON and V%.

Autocollimation Measurement

The integrated autocollimation system operates from 0.5 m to 20 m, with 0.5″ resolution and 2″ autocollimation accuracy. Built-in LED illumination supports target observation during alignment and calibration work.

30× Telescope and Coaxial Laser Pointing

The 30× telescope provides a 1°30′ field of view, 47 mm effective aperture and 3.5″ telescope resolution. Coaxial laser pointing is available in red or green for target indication.

Single-Axis Liquid-Electric Compensation

The compensator provides a ±3′ compensation range with 1″ compensation resolution for angular observation during alignment and calibration work.
