Specifications
MINI Vertical is a handheld instrument for measurement of the coefficient of retroreflection RA of road signs and other materials.
MINI Vertical is a handheld instrument for measurement of the coefficient of retroreflection (RA) of road signs, safety clothing and other materials.
The innovative optical system can measure up to 4 (four) simultaneous observation angles.
The entrance angle (β) can be fixed ( −4° / +5° ) or it can be continuously adjusted by the operator.
The combination of adjustable entrance angle with the exclusive quadruple simultaneous observation angles allows precise determination of retroreflection according to all international standards:
- ASTM E1709 (0.2°).
- ASTM E2540 (0.5°).
- EN 12899-1 (0.33°).
- ISO 20471 and UNE 135340 (0.2°, 0.33°, 1.0° ,1.5°).
- ECE104 (0.33°).

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) about the MINI technology
The MINI horizontal is a arrangement B device: The
illuminated are is the measured area. A darkened
room will demonstrate the illuminated area and
importance of placement and ” aiming ” of the MINI.
The MINI optical arrangement B (ASTM E1710) is
advantageous in the sense that it leads to less variation
of the measured value with small tilts of the
retroreflectometer that are unavoidable in practical eld
measurements.
Each Easylux instrument by itself does not need re-calibration or special services unless damaged by external factors. To ensure reliable measurements, periodic checking or replacement of the instrument reference standard is recommended. Please contact www.easylux.com.br or your local distributor to know more about how to replace the calibration standard.
In case of MINI Horizontal the ceramic reference can be checked independently with a special Easylux Calibration Kit (sold separately).
Full charged batteries will provide more than 8000 consecutive measurements. You should use AA-size rechargeable batteries with at least 2300 mAh. A fully charged brand new battery will make around 8000 consecutive measurements. If the number of measurements falls much below, it is time to replace it.
The multi-voltage power adapter and the vehicle power adapter will recharge the batteries within 8 hours. With 4 hours it is possible to get around 4000 consecutive measurements. For fast recharging, a third-party external AA battery charger can be used. Never leave the batteries uncharged for too long.
Yes. The MINI uses 6 units of AA-size battery. Just remove the back battery cover to access the batteries.
Yes. It is recommended to calibrate the MINI at least once a day, after recharging the batteries, before starting to work, and after a significant temperature change.
No. The MINI is completely immune to solar light or any kind of external light (indoor lamps and road lamps).
Yes. You can work without any attachments or modifications.
The MINI for road marking is an external beam instrument. It is completely immune to solar light or any kind of external light.
It is stored for every measurement. The GPS synchronization could take from 3 to 10 minutes after power on. The MINI should be under open sky to get the GPS coordinates . The GPS is an optional item.
The MINI implements a LOG file system that can be used to organize your measurements.
When a new LOG is created, the user is asked for the following:
- LOG alias Name;
- Road Name;
- Starting milestone;
- Operator’s name;
- Direction (north, south, east, west);
- Material type (Paint, Thermoplastic, Epoxy, etc.);
- Special NOTE.
Yes. The MINI horizontal can reach 4000 mcd.m−2 .lx−1
All data are stored into a removable SDCARD. A standard 8GB can store over 1.000.000 measurements.
The MINI is full compatible with EN1436 and ASTM E1710 standards. It was approved by an independent test laboratory StrAusZert (Germany). Test Certificate No. 0913 − 2014 − 04.
