79 m Range
The Z+F IMAGER® 5006EX provides a nominal range of 79 m. This measurement range enables the scanner to be used efficiently across many surveying applications in environments where explosion protection is required.
Extended 310° × 360° Field of View
The scanner provides a 310° vertical and 360° horizontal field of view. This broad scanning coverage supports comprehensive documentation while reducing the number of scan positions required for capturing an area.
Stand-Alone Operation
The 100% stand-alone concept allows the scanner to operate in the field without requiring external equipment for scanning. This provides greater operational flexibility and helps avoid additional ignition sources from external scanning equipment in potentially explosive atmospheres.
