PRISM WITH POLE AZA1036
The AZA1036 Prism with Pole is a professional-grade surveying accessory designed for precise distance and angular measurements when used with total stations. This complete reflector-based surveying solution includes a high-accuracy prism, durable holder with target plate, and an adjustable telescopic pole—ensuring consistent performance across construction, cadastral, and topographic applications.
High-Precision Reflector for EDM Measurements
At the core of the AZA1036 is a single retroreflective survey prism, manufactured from high-purity optical glass and silver-coated for maximum signal return. The prism efficiently reflects the EDM signal back to the total station, enabling accurate distance measurement over long ranges—up to 2,000 meters, depending on instrument capability and site conditions.
The prism is housed in a rugged protective casing and mounted on a high-visibility target plate, allowing easy acquisition through the telescope even in low-light, foggy, or dusty environments.
Description
Standard Offset & Universal Compatibility
The AZA1036 prism supports standard offset values (-30 mm or 0 mm), making it fully compatible with leading total station brands including Leica, Topcon, Sokkia, Trimble, and Pentax. An integrated azimuth alignment ring ensures correct prism orientation regardless of the observation angle, reducing measurement errors during stakeout and control point surveys.
Adjustable Telescopic Prism Pole
The included telescopic prism pole is constructed from lightweight yet durable aluminum or fiberglass, offering excellent rigidity and portability. The pole extends from 1.5 m up to 5 m, with clearly marked metric or imperial graduations to allow precise height setting—critical for stakeout, elevation transfer, and offset measurements.
Secure twist-lock or flip-clamp mechanisms prevent height slippage during operation, ensuring measurement consistency.
Vertical Accuracy & Field Stability
To maintain perfect vertical alignment, the pole is equipped with an integrated circular bubble level, allowing the operator to keep the prism plumb during observations. This significantly minimizes vertical error, especially during long-range shots and high-accuracy control surveys.
The hardened base and robust pole construction provide stability on soil, asphalt, and compacted surfaces.
Rugged & Field-Ready Design
Designed for demanding site conditions, the AZA1036 prism assembly is sealed against dust and moisture, ensuring long service life and reliable performance in outdoor environments. The complete set is lightweight, easy to transport, and supplied with a protective carrying case for safe storage and mobility.
The modular design allows the prism to be easily removed or repositioned on the pole, offering flexibility for backsight, foresight, boundary marking, and elevation verification tasks.

The AZA1036 Prism with Pole is ideal for:
-
Site layout and stakeout surveys
-
Control point and benchmark measurement
-
Boundary demarcation and cadastral surveys
