General description
AndroTec METOR is a handheld laser receiver, designed to receive
and to display reference elevation information from red and infrared
rotational lasers. A large 127mm vertical reception window captures
the laser beam using AndroTec’s patented X²L sensor technology.
Elevation information is output via two liquid crystal displays (LCDs,
one in the front, one in the rear) and three bright LEDs in the front. A
beeper additionally emits adjustable audible signals.
The LCDs indicate elevation information by applying both graphical
symbols (proportinally growing or shrinking arrows plus centrer bar)
and numerals. While the graphics visualizes high, low, or on-grade
the numerals display the distance to on-grade.
Accuracy levels, units of measure, sound levels, and various other
user options are selectable to meet a variety of job requirements.
METOR was specifically designed for use in harsh construction en-
vironments. Strobe rejection technology, overmolded housings, re-
cessed windows, waterproof design and durability are incorporated
into every AndroTec METOR.
A general-purpose clamp is included and serves to mount the de-
tector on various grade rods and staffs. A secondary offset mounting
location provides additional versatility in certain applications. A pa-
tented reversible wedge on the clamp allows sure grip mounting to
round, oval, square, and rectangular rods, as well as various sizes
of wooden staffs.
