Description

Sokkia AK17 Prism for Total Stations

The Sokkia AK17 Prism is a single-prism reflector designed for use with total stations. It offers a compact size (64mm diameter), making it easy to transport and store, ideal for applications requiring frequent movement. Despite its compact size, the AK17 boasts durable construction with a water-sealed silver-coated prism to withstand various weather conditions. It features a standard 5/8-inch thread for easy attachment to poles or staffs, simplifying setup and operation.

The AK17 comes in two options with different prism constants: 0mm and -30mm. It’s crucial to choose the model with the correct prism constant that matches your specific total station to ensure accurate measurements. While generally offered at a competitive price point, it’s important to remember that the smaller size might translate to slightly less stability compared to larger prisms.

Additional Notes:

Prism Range: The effective range of the AK17 depends on various factors like the total station’s EDM (Electronic Distance Measurement) capabilities, atmospheric conditions, and beam deviation. Consult your total station’s manual for specific range information.
Prism Holder Accuracy: Certificates of compliance for prism holder accuracy might be available upon request from the manufacturer or authorized retailers.
Survey Prism Offsets: As mentioned in the provided text, some prisms have offsets due to the path of the light beam entering and exiting the prism. Understanding the concept and applying the appropriate offset correction is crucial for accurate measurements.
