Intelligent functions: time-saving
PRIMUS 3 has numerous intelligent functions, all of which have been developed with the aim of saving time on the construction site and therefore working even more efficiently. It goes without saying that these innovative and practical functions are simple and intuitive to operate.
The key to these functions is the Magic Button on the COMMANDER 3.
Depending on whether PRIMUS 3 is in horizontal or vertical mode, only the functions that make sense for this operating mode are available. This ensures easy handling at all times.
The slope range:
enormous
The slope range of ± 15% for the PRIMUS 3 H1N, H2N and HVA2N slope laser models is outstanding.
± 15% inclination is possible simultaneously in each axis without pre-inclination of the laser.
The mechanics of the laser are designed in such a way that the pivot point of the two swivel axes of the construction laser is located in the optical center of the rotating prism. This sounds complicated, but
has the advantage that more accurate results are achieved in dualslope operation.
Naturally, the PRIMUS 3 H1N, H2N and HVA2N slope laser models feature tilt control and automatic re-levelling in tilt mode.
The energy supply:
smart
The Li-Ion SmartPower battery, which features a very high energy density and low weight, is used for the power supply. The battery can be charged in the laser and does not need to be removed. A charging socket is located on the display side of PRIMUS 3. Of course, PRIMUS 3 can be operated while charging.
The tripod attachment:
quick
In addition to the standard 5/8” connection thread, all PRIMUS 3 construction lasers are equipped with the further improved Quick-Fix 2 quick-release system. The laser can be attached to or detached from any tripod in a matter of seconds. Simply flip the lever to attach or detach. Ready.
AutoAlign 2
PRIMUS 3 HVA and HVA2N models are equipped with the AutoAlign 2 function. This function enables the laser level to be automatically aligned with COMMANDER 3. The working range of AutoAlign 2 is 150m.
In horizontal mode, AutoAlign 2 function is available in both the X and Y axes. Perfect for measuring slopes.
In vertical mode, the AutoAlign 2 function is available in one axis.
Perfect for batter board applications and façade construction.
AutoTarget function
for automatic axis alignment
In dual slope operation, precise alignment of the tilt axes is extremely important for accurate results in fine grading. Small deviations in the alignment of the tilt axis can lead to massive errors.
AutoTarget function of the PRIMUS 3 H2N and HVA2N automatically aligns the Y-slope axis of the laser with the COMMANDER 3. The internal coordinate system of the laser is shifted.
The time-consuming and error-prone manual alignment of the tilt axis in the Y direction to the target using optical sighting devices such as a telscope are no longer necessary. This innovative function is made possible
by the PRIMUS 3 patented sensor technology.
FindX
Since the Y-axis and X-axis are always arranged at right angles to each other, aligning the Y-axis with AutoTarget automatically results in a change to the X-axis, too.
FindX function makes it quick and easy to determine the exact position of the X-axis. The COMMANDER is positioned roughly on the presumed X-axis. After activating the FindX function, direction arrows and angle information on the COMMANDER display indicate the exact position of the X-axis. FindX function also makes it quick and easy to transfer right angles in the field.
PlaneLock X/Y
PlaneLock X or PlaneLock Y leads to better results when working in slope mode over a longer period of time and with particular precision, as environmental influences on the sensitive sensors of the slope laser are avoided.
On PRIMUS 3 H1N, H2N or HVA2N, slope is set in the desired axis. COMANDER 3 is brought into the laser plane and PlaneLock is activated. COMMANDER 3 then holds the laser plane at the set inclination while the other axis is aligned exactly horizontally.
This function is extremely helpful, especially when creating a fine plane.
