ZRM 6013 Retroreflectometer RL/Qd

After eight successful years the production of the ZRM 6013 Zehntner-Retroreflectometer R_L/Qd will be ceased and replaced by the models ZRM 6014, ZRM 6013+ and ZRM 6006 at the end of 2013. Click here to request a quotation for trade-in with a new model.

Depending on availability, it might be possible to purchase a second hand unit. The following features distinguish the ZRM 6013:

The very first retroreflectometer with LED illumination for measuring night visibility (R_L) and day visibility (Qd) of road markings as well as ambient temperature (°C/°F) and relative humidity (rH %) combined in one compact instrument
For all types of road markings
For profiles up to 5 mm (0.2“), just put on and measure; additionally, significantly higher profiles can be measured with instruction
In accordance with EN 1436 (for R_L and Qd), ASTM E 1710 (for R_L), ASTM E 2302 (for Qd) ASTM E 2177 (for R_L wet)
Approved by independent test laboratory BASt (Federal Highway Research Institute, DE) (test No.: BASt-V4 22/2006)
Factory calibration with a calibration standard traceable to the independent accreditation body METAS, Switzerland

	Latest technology and intuitive operational elements like for example the rotary button for easy and rapid menu-guidance
	Several parameters are displayed at the press of a single button
	Menu-guided in several languages, easy to operate
	Put the instrument on the included calibration standard; pressing the button executes the zero, R_L and Qd calibration automatically
	Measuring system with high long-term stability ensures constant measuring accuracy and thus reliable measuring results
	Automatic self-diagnosis will show all deviations caused by damage or soiling
	Markings of different colours can be measured without recalibrating the instrument thanks to V(λ) adaptation
	2nd calibration standard can be programmed
	For exact positioning of the instrument the measuring direction, mesuring area and illumination area are indicated on the instrument
	Automatic ambient light supervision and correction, particularly important for profiled markings
	For profiles up to 5 mm (0.2“), just put on and measure; additionally, significantly higher profiles can be measured with instruction
	Integrated wet-timer (stop watch), the measurement is carried out automatically after expiry of the inserted time
	Last measured data will not be lost after shut down of the instrument even if they have not yet been stored
	Huge memory
	PC- and printer connection
	Optional built-in thermal printer for easy printout directly on site
	PC and printer transfer, print-out of a detailed test report (e.g. user ID, date/time, location, specification of road marking, average value) on an A4- or letter-sized paper with almost any printer
	Data transfer into Microsoft Excel enables statistical analyses of the measurements taken
	Free software/firmware updates and program for PC ("RetroTools" software). RetroTools is available for Windows 98 SP1, NT 4.0 SP5, 2000 SP2, XP and Vista versions
	For better user convenience in the field, wheels, remote control incl. adjustable handle are optionally available; easy to mount and to remove, no tools required
	WAAS GPS unit available as an option
	If equipped with WAAS GPS unit, it is possible to show each single measurement on the optional, external mapping software. In addition you can add a photo of the road marking for each measurement
	Extremely powerful battery; e.g. for 400 measurements per day, the battery has to be recharged only once a month
	Luminous display for measurements in the dark. Hence measurements can be taken around the clock (day or night)
	The handy metal carrying case with wheels requires little space, suitable even for airline travel
	Even a small car is suitable for transportation
