Zehntner ZRM 6010 RL – Proceq

Advanced External Beam Retroreflectometer

The Zehntner ZRM 6010 RL delivers portable, handheld testing capability for determination of night visibility for all types of road and airport markings. This advanced retroreflectometer utilizes external beam technology to enable measurements under standard conditions of continuous wetting and conditions of rain using a rain simulator.

Key Features and Capabilities

This compact instrument combines measurement of RL dry (night visibility), RL wet (night visibility), RL continuous wetting (night visibility), ambient temperature (°C/°F), and relative humidity (rH %) all in one device. The external beam design means the projected RL light source hits the ground at a point ahead of the ZRM 6010, where simulated rainfall is located.

Professional Grade Construction

Engineered for field and laboratory use, the ZRM 6010 includes a telescopic handle in standard delivery for easy operation. Optional features include integrated 5-megapixel camera, GNSS GPS-unit, compass and level-meter, plus various printer versions to customize the instrument to specific requirements.

Standards Compliance

The ZRM 6010 Retroreflectometer complies with EN 1436 (RL), ASTM E1710 (RL), ASTM E2177 (RL wet) and ASTM E2832 RL continuous wetting standards. Factory calibration is traceable to the independent Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology METAS.

FAQ - Zehntner ZRM 6010 RL – Proceq

What is the ZRM 6010 RL used for?

The Zehntner ZRM 6010 RL is used for determining night visibility (RL) of all types of road and airport markings. It's specifically designed for measuring retroreflection performance under various conditions including dry, wet, and continuous wetting scenarios.

How does the external beam technology work?

The external beam technology allows the projected RL light source to hit the ground at a point ahead of the ZRM 6010. This design enables measurements under continuous wetting conditions and rain simulation, as the light source is positioned where the simulated rainfall is located.

What optional features are available?

The ZRM 6010 can be customized with various optional features including integrated 5-megapixel camera, GNSS GPS-unit, compass and level-meter, and different printer versions to meet specific measurement and documentation requirements.

What standards does the ZRM 6010 comply with?

The ZRM 6010 Retroreflectometer complies with EN 1436 (RL), ASTM E1710 (RL), ASTM E2177 (RL wet) and ASTM E2832 RL continuous wetting standards. It comes with factory calibration traceable to the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology METAS.

What makes this instrument suitable for field use?

The ZRM 6010 features a telescopic handle included in standard delivery, making it ideal for both field and laboratory operations. The transflective luminous graphical display ensures excellent visibility under all lighting conditions, including bright sunlight.

How fast are the measurements?

The ZRM 6010 is an ultrafast retroreflectometer that can take RL measurements in approximately 1 second, making it highly efficient for both single measurements and continuous monitoring applications.
