METEC: digital tape measure with built-in laser distance meter.

The SOLA METEC digital tape measure with laser distance meter combines two measuring methods in the one compact measuring device. Whether on construction sites, indoors or for professional measuring tasks in skilled trades, the METEC delivers precise results, saves time and increases efficiency. The robust measuring tool combines a digital 5-meter tape measure (16 ft) with a built-in laser distance meter with a range of up to 20 meters (65 ft). This makes it ideal for both short and long distances where flexibility, as well as accuracy, are required.

Highlights

  • Digital tape measure (5 m / 16 ft) with built-in laser distance meter (20 m / 65 ft)
  • Measuring functions of the digital tape measure: length, area and volume measurement
  • Measuring functions of the laser distance meter: length, continuous, min./max., area and volume measurement as well as indirect 2-point/3-point measurement (Pythagoras)
  • Memory for up to 50 measurement results
  • High accuracy: ±2 mm (laser), ±1.5 mm (tape measure)
  • Easy-to-read multi-line LCD display with backlighting
  • Metric and imperial units of measurement on the tape and display
  • Two selectable measuring reference points: front or rear edge
  • Wireless data transfer via Bluetooth to SOLA Measures app on a smartphone or to a PC via SOLA Data Connector
  • Permanent tape brake prevents any uncontrolled rolling back of the tape
  • Robust, ergonomic design with protective rubber lining
  • IP54 protection class against dust and splash water
  • Energy-saving thanks to automatic switch-off

Two measuring methods - one device

For short distances: digital tape measure

Ideal for shorter distances, for example in interior design or furniture making: the 5 m long digital tape measure quickly, clearly and accurately (±1.5 mm) displays the measurement in real time directly on an illuminated LCD display. Whether simple length measurement or area and volume calculation: the METEC delivers reliable results at the touch of a button. The permanent tape brake ensures full checking when measuring, and the measuring reference point can be flexibly selected at the front or rear of the device.

For longer distances: laser distance meter

The built-in laser distance meter is impressive for longer distances, for example in large rooms, on high walls or hard-to-reach sections. With a range of up to 20 meters and an accuracy of ±2 mm, even complex measurements such as indirect distances can be taken quickly and reliably using the Pythagoras function. The units of measurement can be conveniently changed on the device, metric or imperial, as required. Here too, the reference point can be specified either at the front or rear as required.

Digitally transfer, save and share measurements

Use with the SOLA Measures app

The SOLA Measures app enables the wireless transfer of measurements from the METEC to a smartphone:

  • Measurements are added directly to photos within the app via Bluetooth at the touch of a button: take a photo or import from the gallery, draw in lengths, start measuring.
  • Add notes to clearly record technical details.
  • Share measurement results quickly and easily.
  • Create projects to record multiple measurements in a structured way and to keep track of them at all times.
  • Devices that have already been paired are automatically detected and connected by the app.

The app is available free of charge for Android and iOS in the respective stores.

Transferring measurements digitally to a PC

Manually transferring measurements to a computer can be time-consuming and error-prone - an all too familiar challenge. With our SOLA Data Connector application software, we present a pioneering solution for transferring measurements effortlessly, precisely and at the touch of a button from the METEC to any desired program on the PC. The only system requirements for the terminal are Windows® 10 and support for Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE). Click the button below to access the free trial version with 10 measurements.
