What Is a Zip Level

ZIPLEVEL is a precision pressurized hydrostatic altimeter that levels and reads elevations by measuring the pressure developed by gravity acting on the net height of liquid between the MM and the BU. A water level is a hydrostatic level that establishes a level reference plane only much like a rotary laser.

The High Precision function provides paper-thin precise vertical readings within 0.005” (0.1mm) over 4′ (1.2m). A built-in Carry Function retains your original benchmark Zero over unlimited ranges without the differential leveling tabulation, tedious calculations and endless errors.
