Trimble’s new Total Station provides millimeter accuracy for monitoring applications

Trimble S5 Ti-M Total Station

Trimble has released a new monitoring device, the Trimble S5 Ti-M total station, specifically designed as a powerful, yet cost-effective solution scalable for monitoring projects of any size, from short-term jobs to multi-year construction operations.

The S5 Ti-M is ideal for the monitoring of buildings above tunnel construction and close to excavation sites. It is also well suited for monitoring the subsidence of road surfaces and embankments. The total station is built to withstand the rigours of challenging environments and extreme work conditions.

The S5 Ti-M features Trimble’s FineLock technology which provides a pointing precision of less than 1 millimeter at a distance of 300 meters. FineLock is a smart tracker sensor with a narrow field of view that enables the Trimble S5 Ti-M to detect a target without interference from surrounding prisms—an important feature when operating in congested worksites where multiple optical devices may be running in close proximity to one another.   

The S5 Ti-M provides millimeter-level accuracy and 3D position information for buildings and other structures. When integrated with Trimble’s 4D Control software, the S5 Ti-M is a the S5 Ti-M is an even more powerful optical tool capable of handling complex monitoring applications. Trimble 4D Control software provides the data needed to assess the speed, direction and magnitude of movements, and effectively manages and analyzes the data to help make the most informed decisions about structural health and integrity.

The Trimble S5 Ti-M total station is available from Trimble’s Monitoring Distribution Network. For more information, visit:  http://www.trimble.com/Infrastructure/Total-Stations.
