Sokkia SET5F

Offered here is a used Sokkia SET5F total station, a well regarded workhorse from Sokkia's conventional total station lineup. This instrument combines dependable angle measurement with a coaxial EDM system, and it has long been favored by land surveyors and construction crews for its rugged build and straightforward operation. The SET5F is suited to topographic surveys, boundary retracement, and general construction staking. The unit includes onboard software for basic survey computations such as traverse closure, area calculation, and point stakeout, and its keypad layout will feel familiar to anyone who has used other Sokkia instruments of this era. Optics are sharp and the telescope focuses smoothly, which is important for long day use in the field. It performs well with standard prisms and reflective sheeting targets over typical survey distances. As a used instrument it carries some cosmetic wear from years of fieldwork, but it has been checked for proper calibration and functional accuracy before listing. It is a solid choice for a surveyor or contractor who wants a proven, no-frills total station at a fraction of the cost of new equipment.
