Parallel plate micrometer that fits onto the objective of the NA2 and NAK2 levels and locks in place with the knob. Tilting the plane parallel glass plate shifts the line of sight in parallel, and the amount is read on its own scale directly to 0.1 mm and estimated to 0.01 mm. It turns an engineer's level into a precise level for deformation and industrial measurement.

LEI-356121

A level reads the staff only as finely as the graduation allows, and for settlement work in the tenth of a millimetre range that is far too coarse. The Leica GPM3 solves it mechanically, it is fitted onto the objective of the NA2 or NAK2 and locked in position with the knob. Turning the micrometer knob tilts the plane parallel glass plate, the line of sight moves up or down in parallel until it sits exactly on the next graduation line. The displacement itself is read on a dedicated scale, directly to 0.1 mm and estimated to 0.01 mm.

Benefits

  • 10 mm measuring range, which covers the full spacing between two graduation lines on a precise staff, so nothing is left unmeasured.
  • Direct reading to 0.1 mm with estimation to 0.01 mm, instead of a coarse guess at the edge of a graduation line.
  • 0.3 mm per kilometre in a double run, a standard deviation the NA2 and NAK2 reach only together with the GPM3.
  • Fitted, not converted, the micrometer slides onto the objective and locks with one knob, the instrument stays otherwise unchanged.
  • Its own reading eyepiece, the micrometer scale is viewed separately from the telescope image, which avoids mix-ups while reading.

Applications

Settlement and deformation measurement on structures, bridges and dams, height monitoring of track and crane runways, alignment of machine foundations and production lines, precise levelling in geodetic control networks, check measurements in industrial metrology.

Compatibility and scope of delivery

The GPM3 is intended for the Leica NA2 and NAK2 levels and fits onto their objective. It pairs well with the Leica FOK73 interchangeable eyepiece (material number 346475), which raises telescope magnification from 32x to 40x, and with a precise or invar staff carrying a matching graduation. The parallel plate micrometer is supplied with a 10 mm measuring range, in a container.

Origin

Original accessory from Leica Geosystems, material number 356121.
