Emlid Reach RS3
RTK GNSS receiver with tilt compensation, survey-grade precision, multi-band capabilities, and LTE modem for challenging environments.
Gets a fix in 5 seconds
Reach RS3 gets a centimeter-accurate solution in about 5 seconds. It maintains robust performance even when the sky view is partially obstructed, or the receiver itself is tilted.
RINEX logging and PPP support
Reach RS3 quickly achieves centimeter accuracy in 5 seconds, maintaining robust performance despite obstructions or tilting.
Built-in LTE modem
Insert a SIM card into your Reach RS3 to enable broadcasting or receiving corrections via NTRIP effortlessly.
22 hours on a single charge
Reach RS3 features a robust built-in battery lasting up to 22 hours for logging or 18 hours for tilt-enabled RTK operation. Simply connect a power bank for multi-day use.
Accurate results even with large tilt angles
The IMU-based tilt compensation in Reach RS3 enables you to make measurements with up to 60 degrees of tilt while still staying within 20 mm of accuracy.
Reach RS3 continuously measures and corrects tilt in real-time to keep you on target.
Calibration-free
We calibrate the inertial measurement unit in 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
Unaffected by magnetic fields, RS3’s IMU sensors provide robust tilt compensation even when working close to metal structures.
Quick initialization
Tilt initialization takes about 20 meters of walking or 10-20 seconds of tilting. Usually ready on the way from the car.
Rugged and compact
Dense forests, mountains, frost, heat and water, Reach RS3 can handle them all
IP67
RS3 is waterproof up to a one meter depth. Silicone plugs completely seal and protect all connectors from water and dust.
-20ºС…+65ºС
We extensively tested Reach RS3 in conditions that simulate the coldest winters and hottest summers.
Industrial battery
The Reach RS3 Li-Ion battery handles high and low temperatures well and over 2000 cycles of charging and discharging while maintaining its original capacity.
Impact-resistant
The body of the Reach RS3 is made of polycarbonate and coated with elastomer. The combination of these materials makes your Reach RS3 drop resistant and ready for the harshest conditions.
NTRIP (Band and Rover)
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.
Compatible
Any receiver with RTCM3 support
Dual-band radio
LoRa 868/915 MHz (Base and Rover)
Perfect for areas with no internet coverage for NTRIP. LoRa is used when connecting Emlid receivers over the radio.
Compatible
All Emlid receivers with built-in radio.
UHF 450 MHz Rover
An option to mix and match RTK receivers within your fleet. You can configure your Reach RS3 to receive corrections from an existing base*. You can also use a high-power external radio on your Reach base and connect with the UHF radio receiver in Reach RS3.
Compatible
Bases with radios that transmit TRIMTALK 450S**
