Topcon

Topcon’s new slope sensor for graders and dozers is a simple drop-in replacement for existing sensors. It is backward-compatible to Topcon's Systems Four and Five machine-control systems. The maker says cross-slope performance is improved in a wide temperature range, and claims the LED status lights make trouble-shooting easier and faster. - 10/1/2009
