REACH RS3

GNSS RTK receiver with tilt compensation.
Topographic level accuracy, even in hard-to-reach places.

Accurate results even at large tilt angles

The IMU-based tilt compensation in Reach RS3 allows you to perform measurements with up to 60 degrees of tilt while maintaining an accuracy of 20 mm.

Reach RS3 continuously measures and corrects tilt in real time to keep you on target.

Inspect and stake out faster

It is not necessary to check the bubble.

Robust and effortless IMU inclination compensation

  • No calibration – We calibrate the inertial measurement unit of each device individually at the factory, so you can get your Reach RS3 up and running right out of the box.
  • Immune to magnetic disturbances – The RS3’s GNSS and IMU sensors are unaffected by magnetic fields and provide robust tilt compensation even when working close to metallic structures.
  • Quick initialization – Initialization of the tilt requires about 20 meters of walking or 10 to 20 seconds of tilt. It is usually ready on the way from the car.

Fast and reliable GNSS receiver

Obtains a solution in 5 seconds

Reach RS3 achieves centimeter-accurate solution in approximately 5 seconds. It maintains high accuracy and robust performance even when the view of the sky is partially obstructed or the receiver itself is tilted.

RINEX logging and PPP support
Record raw data in RINEX format for post-processing. You can use our free PPK software, Emlid Studio or any other RINEX-compatible software. The logs are also compatible with OPUS, AUSPOS and PPP services, so you can get very accurate results anywhere in the world.

Up to 22 hours on 1 charge

Reach RS3 comes equipped with a built-in industrial-grade battery that can support up to 22 hours of logging or 18 hours of tilt work. in RTK. For uninterrupted operation over several days, simply connect a power bank, just as you would with your cell phone.

Built-in LTE modem

Insert a SIM card into your Reach RS3 and let it transmit or receive corrections via NTRIP.

Get corrections from CORS, Reach or third-party databases

Base and Rover NTRIP

Work in RTK with VRS or a single baseline CORS network.
You can also connect another GNSS receiver as an NTRIP base using Emlid NTRIP Caster.
Compatibility
Any receiver with RTCM3 support.

Base and mobile LoRa 868/915 MHz

  • Perfect for areas without Internet coverage for NTRIP. LoRa is used when connecting Emlid GNSS receivers via radio.

Compatibility

All Emlid receivers with built-in radio.

UHF 450 MHz Mobile Radio Transmitter

An option for combining RTK receivers within your fleet. You can configure your Reach RS3 to receive corrections from an existing base*.

You can also use an external high power radio in your Reach base and connect it to the UHF radio receiver in Reach RS3.

Compatibility

Bases with TRIMTALK 450S transmitting radios.

IP67

The RS3 is water resistant to a depth of up to one meter. Silicone plugs provide a complete seal and protect all connectors from water and dust .

-20 a +65 ºС

We extensively tested Reach RS3 in conditions that simulate the coldest winters and hottest summers.

Industrial battery

The Reach RS3 lithium-ion battery withstands high and low temperatures well and over 2000 charge/discharge cycles while maintaining its original capacity.
While others replace the batteries hot, the Reach GNSS receiver keeps working.

Impact resistant

The body of the Reach RS3 GNSS receiver is impact and drop resistant and prepared for the harshest conditions.
