The new MINI Horizontal measures the night visibility (RL), the Day Visibility (Qd), the visibility under wet (RL wet) and continuous wetting conditions (RL-2 rain) of road markings.
With repeatability of 2% and reproducibility of 5% the new MINI can make around 8000 sequential measurements per battery charge. The MINI uses standard AA size batteries - easy to find and to replace at any time.
MINI weights is less than 2.1 kg - with AA batteries - and the size is very compact (255 mm x 155 mm x 170 mm). Those values are nearly half of the old technology competitors.
The MINI retroreflectometer for road markings meets all standards:
•30-meter by ASTM E1710 and EN1436 for RL (88.76° / 1.05°).
•ASTM E2302 and EN1436 for Qd (2.29° ).
•ASTM E2177 and EN1436 for RLwet.
•ASTM E2832 and EN1436 for Continuous Wetting RL-2 .
•15-meter by NBR14723 (86.5° / 1.5° ). (optional)
MINI uses LED technology, which makes the instrument almost maintenance-free and energy efficient. The innovative patent pending optical system is in accordance with CIE V( ʎ ) specifications, enabling accurate measuring of all colors and types of road markings - even profiled up to 15 mm.
