Production of instruments for measuring various quantities, including Condtrol laser levels. Their functionality allows you to build vertical and horizontal marking lines and accurately determine the height difference between two points.
Features of Condtrol Laser Levels
- The minimum line projection error is ± 0.1 mm per 1 m, due to which all measurement data are highly accurate.
- Self-leveling option. Most models of Condtrol levels are equipped with a similar function. It turns on by moving the toggle switch, which is very convenient during operation.
- Designing the zenith point. Performed by Condtrol multi-prism laser levels. At the same time, devices create up to 6 projections, including nadir, zenith and horizontal projections.
- The case is protected from mechanical damage by soft pads.
- The ADA laser can be connected to a tripod thanks to the tripod thread. This is done to facilitate and ease the work with the device and obtain the most accurate results.
- Range of measurements. Some models of levels can be used for large-scale work - their range is up to 300 meters.
Condtrol XLiner Laser Level
The XLiner DUO self-leveling professional laser level builds vertical and horizontal laser planes. The device was made in an original and reliable case, the design of which is strikingly different from other models of Condtrol levels.
Design
The body of the Condtrol XLiner laser level is made in the form of a rectangular trapezoid. On the sides are rubber dampers that protect the level from mechanical damage and preserve its functionality. The large support area of the laser level increases its stability on flat surfaces.
Instrument batteries are located at the bottom of the chassis. To create the battery cover, thin plastic was used, which is impractical: the latch, like the cover itself, easily breaks when the compartment is opened. Despite this, it closes very tightly, without passing dust, dirt and other garbage.
Condtrol XLiner has an IP54 degree of protection according to international standards, which is also characteristic of other types of lasers.
Compensator Type
The ADA laser level, like other levels of this class, is equipped with a pendulum compensator on magnetic dampers. Installing a damper takes 2 seconds even after a strong shake of the device.
If the operating range of the compensator is exceeded, the level starts flashing with a frequency of 1 second, notifying the user about the need to install the device on a more even surface. The lock of the pendulum compensator is reliable, which is most important when changing places of work and frequent transportation of the device.
Activate and switch modes
Condtrol DUO laser level control is simple and intuitive. The device is fully controlled by two membrane keys located on the top panel. On the lower side of the device there is a switch with which the compensator is blocked.
All keys are numbered for user convenience. The number of lines activated by pressing the power key is displayed by the corresponding numbering:
- Number 1 - inclusion of a vertical plane with a single press.
- Number 2 - inclusion of a horizontal plane when pressed twice.
- number 3 - simultaneous projection of horizontal and vertical when pressed three times.
The right key starts the operating mode with the receiver. It is used when working on the street in clear sunny weather at a distance of up to 200 meters, when there is no way to visually determine the location of the line.
Indicators for enabling and disabling the receiver operation mode and for removing / setting the compensator lock are located on the level panel.
Laser Level Functions
The Condtrol XLiner DUO has a laser type that allows you to build lines with a large scan.
Battery saving is realized due to the function of separate inclusion of laser planes.
The range of operation of the level without a receiver, according to the manufacturer, is 50 meters. Reviews on Condtrol laser levels refute this information: in good light or on the street at this distance, the laser beam is simply not visible.
The lock indicator lights up after moving the compensator lock switch, which allows you to carry out all work in an inclined plane without a signal from the device about loss of horizon. At the same time, the compensator is protected from shaking. The compensator is blocked by shifting the switch to its original position.
Visually, the laser lines of the level on a sunny day are almost impossible to consider, especially at a great distance. In this situation, the operating mode with the receiver is activated, which allows you to determine the location of the laser.
Laser level accuracy
The manufacturer claims an error in the technical specifications +/- 2 mm / 10mm, which is confirmed by users in the reviews.
Mounting the device on tripods
The Condtrol XLiner DUO laser level is equipped with standard 1/4 and 5/8 inch threads, so you can attach the device to any tripod, pole or other wall mounts.
Level Dimensions
The laser level can hardly be called compact, however, its dimensions are not too bulky - 114x73x111 mm.
Equipment
The scope of delivery of the Condtrol laser plane builder includes: a laser level, batteries, an instruction manual in Russian, a laser target and a bag for transportation.

The price of the Condtrol XLiner DUO laser level is 10 thousand rubles.
Condtrol Unix 360 Set
The Condtrol Unix 360 Set Laser Level was launched in 2015. Its functionality allows you to build two planes simultaneously: horizontal with a scan of 360 ° and vertical with a scan of 140 ° .
Condtrol Unix has the same optical design as its main competitor - the ADA Cube 360 laser level. This manufacturer’s decision was a kind of response to the release of two models Cube 360 and 2-360. A similar model was equipped with another model of the laser level - Condtrol Infiniter.
Body
High-quality plastic, soft to the touch, went to make the body of the level. Like other models from this manufacturer, this device has an original and unusual design. The unusual shape, however, does not guarantee the convenience and ergonomics of the body, unlike the standard rectangular and square Cube 360.
When plastering a wall and exhibiting beacons, the Condtrol Unix laser level is not entirely effective, unlike the ADA Cube 2–360 analog with conical prisms. Unix cannot project a vertical plane at a minimum distance from the wall.
Three finger-type batteries are placed in the battery compartment. It closes with a lid with a plastic latch, which is not entirely good, since such a mount very quickly fails and breaks.
Level Management
On the back of the case there are two membrane keys, which switch between different operating modes. By pressing the left button, separate projection of planes is activated, with the right button, the operation mode using the receiver is turned on and the tilt marking mode is activated.
On the front side of the case is a toggle switch, which includes a Unix 360.
Compensator Type
The Condtrol Unix laser is equipped with a high-speed pendulum compensator that can be operational in less than three seconds. Compensator error is standard for most professional laser levels and is 2 mm per 10 meters.
From the initial position, the compensator deviates in all directions by a maximum of 5 degrees. With a larger deviation, a warning system is triggered - sound and visual. Such an alarm is useful during operation, since it allows you to avoid errors in the calculations and markup.
Level Functions
Condtrol Unix 360 laser level functionality allows for professional, full-fledged surface marking.
Using a special receiver, it is possible to mark on the street in sunny weather at a distance of up to 80 meters.
The ability to operate with a locked line, provided for by the functionality of the laser plane builder, is effective when marking the surface diagonally.
The function of separate switching of planes is no less important, since it allows you to reduce power consumption and save battery power.
The disadvantages of this model of a laser level can be attributed only to the fact that it does not have plumb points.
Fixture
The laser maker Condtrol Unix 360 at its base has only one 1/4 inch thread, so you can fix it on a rod or tripod with the same thread, or purchase a separate adapter for 5/8 with 1/4 inch.
In the back of the device there is a loop with which to hang it on a screw or nail, which is very convenient during operation.
Device Options
The scope of delivery of the laser level includes:
- Laser level.
- Tripod.
- User's manual.
- Bag-case for storage and transportation.
