Model ZRM 6013 RL/Qd Retroreflectometer



Conforms To EN 1436, ASTM E 1710

The ZRM 6013 is for all types of road markings - smooth, textured, profiled, colored, with or without aggregates and reflective beads; on wet or dry roads. It also comes with extended memory, interfaces for a PC and a printer. It's high long-term stability ensures constant measuring accuracy and thus reliable measuring results. Possible deviations caused by damages or soiling of the calibration standard or the equipment will be shown automatically. It is also approved by independent test laboratory BASt Germany (no BASt-V4 22/2006).

The even more intelligent successor of the successful model ZRM 1013+.
o Integrated indication of ambient temperature and relative humidity
o Easier measurements of profiled markings up to 5mm & again lighter
The Zehntner retroreflectometer RL simulates the conditions under which road markings are seen at night by a motorist driving with dipped headlights. Qd simulates with diffuse illumination the day visibility of road markings under typical or average daylight or under street lighting. This renders an objective determination of retroreflection possible.
o Get several values with the press of a button
o Menu-guided in several languages, and is easy to operate
o PC and printer download, printout of a detailed test report (a.o. user ID, date/test, location, specification of road marking, average value) on an A4 size paper, either with an office or portable printer
o Off-the-line operation owing to built-in powerful accumulator, for 400 measurements per day, the accumulator has to be recharged only once a month
o LED with high life time (about 500,000 measurements)
o Automatic lightness supervision and correction
o All types of road marking paints, marking foils, thermoplastic, and cold plastic materials
o At markings with profiles up to 5mm just putting on and measuring
o Markings of different colors can be measurements without recalibrating the instrument
o Automatic calibration using the supplied standard
o 2nd calibration standard can be programmed
o Simple positioning for RL and Qd measurement on the same measuring area without repositioning
o Free software update and program for PC (RetroTools software). RetroTools is available for Windows 98 SP1, NT 4.0 SP5, 2000 SP2 and XP versions. In addition, the Internet Explorer 4.01 or higher is required.
o Data transfer to Microsoft Excel for statistics
o Optional availability of wheels, remote control including, adjustable handle for a higher use convenience in the field
o Optional delivery of GPS unit (Global Positioning System); easy to mount and to remove
