2.1.1. Main component overview
cfinder III is an optical distance measurement tool that works with an invisible class 1 laser. The
laser has a measurement range of 1 m – 150 m (approx. 3.3 – 492 ft) and an accuracy range of less
than +/- 5 cm (approx. +/- 2 inches) (depending on environmental conditions / target surface, color
and reflectivity).
A visible class 2 laser (alignment laser) is used to visualize the relative position of the invisible
class 1 laser‘s measuring spot.
