Reflectorless Range (Up to 500 m)

The iM-55 measures reflective and non-reflective surfaces accurately without a prism. It performs well on common construction materials including utility poles, interior walls, steel, concrete, and structural components.
Reflectorless range varies based on lighting, surface type, and target color; as with all EDMs, dark or glossy surfaces will shorten the effective range.

Optional Prism Range (Up to 4,000 m)

With a standard survey prism, the iM-55 can measure up to 4,000 m (2.5 miles). This long-range capability is useful for:
• Utility layout and long runs
• Roadway and highway control
• Pipeline layout
• Open land staking
• Construction control points across large sites

A prism strengthens the return signal to the EDM, improving both accuracy and distance.
