Brunton Clinomaster

The Brunton ClinoMaster height meter/clinometers represent the highest quality in precision sensitivity and durability. The ClinoMaster can measure the height, angle and scope of almost anything readable from 0-90° and 0-150°, with estimations to 0.25°. A rugged, aluminum housing has inch and mm scales. It also features a tangent table for quick height measurement, useful distance conversions and a tripod adapter hole for inclination measurement using our tripod and monopod. Optional leather case available.

Suunto PM-5 hand-held clinometers are precision instruments used all over the world by surveyors, engineers, cartographers, geologists, miners and architects and many others to measure heights, vertical angles and slopes quickly and easily.

Both height meters and clinometers have sturdy housing bodies made from corrosion resistant anodized aluminum alloy. The scale cards run on special bearings in hermetically sealed plastic containers, filled with a liquid which guarantees that they run smoothly and stop quickly.

The liquid will not freeze or evaporate, retains full damping properties in all working conditions and eliminates irritating scale vibrations.

There is a large selection of scales to choose from. These include normal linear angle scales, i.e. degrees, gons and mils as well as per cent scales, topographic scales, metric or American and special secant scales.

A combination of clinometer and precision compass

The Suunto Tandem is a liquid-filled precision compass and clinometer in one compact anodized alloy housing. This instrument is an excellent tool for satellite/antenna installers, surveyors, engineers, cartographers, geologists, miners, architects and for anyone who needs to be able to measure directional indications, heights, vertical angles and slopes – with speed and accuracy.

The Suunto Tandem is an invaluable aid in surveying and can also be used in mines, quarries and tunnels where inclines have to be measured with great accuracy. When surveying and constructing the Tandem is especially handy when there are obstacles or depressions in the line of vision. In addition, the Tandem assists in establishing GPS communication and installation and positioning of satellite antenna. It helps in establishing the right direction, the correct angle and that the location is free from obstacles.

The Suunto Tandem features a lanyard, and a convenient carrying pouch with a belt loop. You can change the Tandem from compass to clinometer with a turn of your wrist.

Five Geographical Balancing Zones

The vertical intensity and direction of the earth’s magnetic field, the inclination, influences the horizontal plane of a compass needle according to the latitude where it is used. Due to inclination, compasses must be balanced for different geographical zones in order to keep the needle in a horizontal position.

The Suunto precision instruments are balanced to five different geographic balancing zones to ensure the best possible performance in each region. The demand for high accuracy and reliability from the professionals using these instruments requires geographic localization of the compass.
