Theodolites

Product Family: The DADI DE2A-GF500 is the long-range green-laser configuration within the DADI DE2A electronic theodolite series. It combines 2″ angular accuracy, an absolute encoder, a 30× telescope and a coaxial green upper laser available with 1 km and 1.5 km effective working distance configurations for long-distance pointing and alignment.

What Is the DADI DE2A-GF500?

The DADI DE2A-GF500 is the long-range green-laser electronic theodolite configuration within DADI's DE2A series. It is designed for engineering applications that require conventional horizontal and vertical angle measurement together with a visible directional reference over extended distances.

The DE2A-GF500 is available with 1 km and 1.5 km effective green-laser working distance configurations under good outdoor visibility conditions. It also provides 2″ angular accuracy, an absolute encoder angle-reading system, a 30× erect-image telescope, a 47 mm objective aperture and single-axis liquid-electric compensation.

Core Features

1 km and 1.5 km Green Laser Configurations

The DE2A-GF500 is available in 1 km and 1.5 km effective working distance configurations under good outdoor visibility conditions. Both remain DE2A-GF500 configurations rather than separate model families.

Coaxial Green Laser Pointing

The green upper laser is coaxial with the telescope sighting direction, providing a visible directional reference for long-distance pointing and alignment work.

Controlled Laser Spot Size

The specified laser spot size is ≤10 mm at 500 m. For the 1.5 km configuration, the specified spot size at 1500 m is less than 30 mm.

2″ Angular Measurement

The absolute encoder angle-measurement system provides 2″ angular accuracy with a minimum display increment of 1.0″.

30× Telescope and Single-Axis Compensation

The instrument uses a 30× erect-image telescope with a 47 mm effective objective aperture, 1°30′ field of view and 1.5 m minimum focusing distance. Its single-axis liquid-electric compensator operates within a ±3′ range.

Available Laser Range Configurations

The 1 km and 1.5 km options are two working-distance configurations of the same DE2A-GF500 model. The longer-distance option does not use a separate model name.

DE2A-GF5001 kmLong-distance pointing and engineering alignment

Typical Applications

High-Rise Building Alignment

Long-distance directional reference for alignment and positioning during high-rise construction.

Tower Installation

Visible long-range pointing for installation and alignment of towers and other tall engineering structures.

Large-Structure Positioning

Angular observation and directional reference for large structural components and long-distance engineering work.

Long-Distance Alignment

The coaxial green laser provides a visible directional reference when a standard short-range upper laser configuration is insufficient.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the DE2A-GF500 part of the DADI DE2A series?

Yes. The DE2A-GF500 is the long-range green-laser configuration within DADI's DE2A electronic theodolite series. It extends the visible green-laser pointing distance beyond the standard MPE-02L green-laser configuration.

Are the 1 km and 1.5 km versions different model names?

No. Both are DE2A-GF500 configurations. The difference is the effective green-laser working distance configuration rather than a separate model name.

What green-laser working distances are available?

The DE2A-GF500 is available with 1 km and 1.5 km effective working distance configurations under good outdoor visibility conditions.

What is the angular accuracy of the DE2A-GF500?

The specified angular measurement accuracy is 2″ (0.6 mgon), using an absolute encoder angle-reading system.

How small is the green laser spot?

The specified spot size is ≤10 mm at 500 m. For the 1.5 km configuration, the specified spot size at 1500 m is less than 30 mm.

Is the green upper laser coaxial with the telescope?

Yes. The DE2A-GF500 uses a coaxial green upper laser aligned with the telescope sighting direction.

Does the DE2A-GF500 also have a laser plummet?

Yes. The green upper laser is used for pointing and alignment, while the internal Class 2 laser plummet is used for instrument centering. These are separate laser functions.

What applications is the DE2A-GF500 intended for?

Typical applications include long-distance engineering alignment, high-rise construction, tower installation and positioning of large engineering structures.
