Precision Automatic Level

Precision Automatic Level

Precision automatic levels are professional-grade optical instruments used in surveying and construction to establish extremely accurate horizontal planes. They are distinguished by their high-quality optics and advanced internal compensators—typically using magnetic or air damping—that maintain a level line of sight even if the instrument is slightly tilted. These instruments are vital for first-order control surveys, industrial machine alignment, and high-precision monitoring.

What we carry

WK-49-4205 Precision Automatic Level

  • The WK-49-4205 Precision Auto Level with a built-in parallel plate micrometer is designed for the highest accuracy in geodesign, engineering and industry. Optical alignment methods assure levelness to within a few thousandths of an inch, regardless of how large of an area is to be covered.
  • The WK-49-4205 Automatic Level is adoptable for the second and third-order geodetic leveling of national networks. It can be used for engineering and deformation surveys in addition to general construction, engineering, and the installation of large machinery. The use of the WK-49-4205’s automatic compensator speeds up work and improves accuracy. Operating temperature is -22°F (-30°C) to +122°F (+50°C).
