Transparent Three-Arm Protractor Model #24-1173 The transparent Three-Arm Protractor measures 12-3/16" in
diameter and is divided to single degrees with vernier's readable to two arc minutes. The
markings are internal, and the clear laminated plastic is .040" thick. The left and
right arms, which extend 13-1/2" from the center of the circle, can be rotated a full
360 degrees and clamped at any point. This instrument is used in the same manner as the
metal Three-Arm Protractor, Model 24-1175, but for sighting closer objects or where the
accuracy of the metal three-arm protractor is not needed. Model 24-2273 is furnished in a
special heavy cardboard storage case. |

Precision Three-Arm Metal Protractor Model #24-1175L and 24-1175R The W-K Precision Three-Arm Metal Protractor, which can be read to
single minutes of arc, consists of a 6-1/4" diameter hard bronze circle with one
fixed arm and two moveable arms. Each arm has an 18" ruler and a 13-1/2"
detachable extension ruler. The circular scale is graduated to half degrees, numbered
every 10 degrees. Each arm is provided with a vernier reading to single minutes. The
instrument is provided in two models, 24-1175R, with the right moveable arm closing to
zero and 24-1175L with the left moveable arm closing to zero. Four interchangeable pivot
plugs are provided for determining and marking the location of the instrument center. |

Sighting Circle Used to
determine the position or bearing of an object from a know reference point. Ideal for
locating fires, the Forestry Service uses this instrument to help direct fire fighters pin
point a fire location in the national forests. The instrument can also be used on ships to
locate the position of other ships or objects on shore to determine their location
relative to the shore positions. The circle is made of corrosion resistant material and is
graduated in single degrees. The "gun-sight" aiming device provides an accurate
and easy means to read the bearing angle. |

Survey and Navigational Sextants The sextant has a guaranteed accuracy of better than 9 seconds of arc. The frame
and the arc are constructed of a special brass alloy and the entire instrument has been
treated and enameled to prevent corrosion. The handle is slightly inclined to provide a
more natural grip. The mirrors are extra large and are of the finest optical quality,
providing a high light intensity. Filters included. The sextants are available with a
choice of 4 x 40 or 6 x 30 telescopes. A bubble attachment and astigmatizer lens are
available. With case. |

Precision Surface Levels Warren-Knight
Precision Levels are made of thoroughly seasoned iron alloy, machined and tapped on the
bearing surfaces to provide a very reliable and durable instrument. The main vial is
precision ground and graduated for consistent accuracy. These levels are also fitted with
a cross test vial to prevent the level from being used in a canted position. |

Telescopic Marine Alidade Mark 8 Model 0 Model #13-7500 The Telescopic Marine Alidade is a navigational instrument used
aboard ship for observing distant objects and determining their bearings. Using adapter
rings to mount the alidade on a compass or gyrocompass indicator, the Model 13-7500 is
primarily intended to be used with the 6-inch and 7-1/2 inch magnetic compass and the
6-inch and 7-1/2 inch gyrocompass indicator. The nitrogen purged main housing consists of
a reticle-equipped, terrestrial telescope for viewing distant objects and an auxiliary
optical system for viewing the compass card and the bubble in the level vial. Furnished
complete with storage case and adapter rings. Mark 6 and Mark 7 Alidades available. We
service and repair all makes and models. |

Vertical Plumb Aligner The
Vertical Plumb Aligner is used to determine the position of points located in the same
vertical and plumb plane as the point produced by the intersection of the cross-wires of
the aligner's telescope. Among other applications, this unit is used to position circular
liquid tank covers over specified graduations or points in the tank floor to insure the
correct critical alignment specified. This instrument is not susceptible to problems
incurred by using a plumb bob such as movement by wind or setting after being touched.
Ideal for applications where accessibility is limited or the distance to the point from
the unit exposed is great. |

Binocular Carriage Model #39-2000 The Binocular Carriage is used aboard ship as well as ground based permanent
sighting stations. These carriages provide for smooth and easy movement of the binocular
in elevation and azimuth. The elevation control will allow for 70 degrees of rotation, 10
degrees depression to 60 degrees of elevation. It is equipped with a locking mechanism to
provide for the securing of the binocular at a desired elevation. The azimuth control will
allow for the rotation in the horizontal axis, with a locking mechanism to secure the
binoculars at any desired azimuth angle. A graduated circle in 1 degree intervals, is
mounted to permit reading the azimuth on a required line of sight. Also provided, is a
manually operated mechanism with locking device, which will adjust the height of the
binocular through a range of 8 inches. Pedestal base and binocular available. |
