342 Topcon Europe Positioning has launched the RL-H4C, its new self-levelling rotating laser for general construction.

"All components are newly designed to offer the users the maximum performance at an affordable price," said Ulrich Hermanski, senior sales and marketing manager for Topcon Europe Positioning.

"The RL-H4C is an addition to the popular RL-H series of rotating lasers, satisfying the increased demands for job site durability, range, accuracy, versatility and cost-effectiveness." In combination with the new laser sensor LS-80L, the RL-H4C "dramatically increased the operating range to 800m in diameter, which is more than a 100% increase over previous models, and is the longest range for its price level," Hermanski said.

Other TRL-H4C features include ±10 arc-seconds horizontal accuracy; ±5 degrees self-levelling range; long battery life of 100 hours with four D/LR20 alkaline batteries, 60 hours with Ni-MH rechargeable battery; also can operate with AC power; and on-the-fly battery recharging.

The new laser has many applications including machine guidance and site grading.
