Reliable Battery Solutions for Surveying and GNSS Equipment

Surveying and GNSS equipment is used in demanding environments where reliable positioning, accurate data collection, and uninterrupted operation are essential.

From total stations and GNSS receivers to digital levels, laser distance meters, pipe locators, and laser levels, these professional devices often require compact and dependable rechargeable battery packs.

At ShangGuo Technology, we provide custom battery solutions for surveying and GNSS equipment, supporting different voltage, capacity, dimensions, connectors, communication interfaces, and installation requirements.

Our engineering team works with customers to develop battery packs according to the specific electrical and mechanical requirements of their equipment.

 

1. Custom Battery Solutions for Surveying Equipment

Professional surveying instruments are frequently used outdoors, on construction sites, and in field environments.

Battery performance directly affects equipment runtime and field productivity. A suitable battery needs to provide stable power while fitting securely into the original battery compartment.

Our custom battery solutions can be developed for different types of professional surveying equipment, including:

  • Total Stations
  • GPS / GNSS Receivers
  • Digital Levels
  • Surveying Remote Controllers
  • Data Collectors
  • Pipe Locators
  • Laser Distance Meters
  • Laser Levels

 

2. Total Station Battery Solutions

Total stations combine electronic distance measurement and angle measurement for accurate surveying and construction applications.

Because total stations are often used for extended periods in the field, battery capacity and mechanical compatibility are important considerations.

ShangGuo Technology can develop custom battery packs for total stations based on the customer's equipment requirements.

Typical customization options include:

  • Battery voltage
  • Battery capacity
  • Pack dimensions
  • Connector type
  • Protection circuit
  • Cell configuration
  • Housing design
  • Charging requirements

We support custom battery solutions for equipment from brands such as Leica, Topcon, Sokkia, Trimble, and Nikon, based on the customer's target model and battery specifications.

 

3. GPS & GNSS Receiver Battery Solutions

GNSS receivers are widely used for surveying, mapping, construction layout, GIS data collection, and positioning applications.

Field operators often need reliable battery performance during long surveying sessions. A custom battery pack can be designed around the receiver's available space, power requirements, and operating conditions.

Our custom GNSS battery solutions can be developed with:

  • Customized voltage and capacity
  • Compact battery dimensions
  • Suitable connectors
  • Battery protection circuits
  • Custom wiring and terminals
  • Optional communication functions
  • Custom labels and housing

Our reference applications include Leica, Trimble, Topcon, South, and CHC GNSS equipment.

 

4. Digital Level Battery Solutions

Digital levels are used for construction measurement, elevation surveying, and precision leveling.

Their battery packs need to balance capacity, size, weight, and reliable power output.

We provide custom battery development for digital levels based on the original equipment requirements, including:

  • Voltage and capacity matching
  • Battery compartment dimensions
  • Connector and cable customization
  • Cell selection
  • Protection circuit design
  • Label and appearance customization

Our reference applications include digital levels from Leica, Trimble, Topcon, and Sokkia.

 

5. Surveying Remote Controller & Data Collector Batteries

Surveying remote controllers and data collectors are commonly used together with total stations and GNSS systems.

These handheld devices require compact battery packs that can provide stable power without adding unnecessary weight.

ShangGuo Technology can customize battery packs according to:

  • Device dimensions
  • Battery compartment structure
  • Required voltage
  • Capacity requirements
  • Connector position
  • Cable length
  • Charging method

 

6. Pipe Locator Battery Solutions

Pipe locators are used to identify underground utilities and assist with infrastructure and construction work.

Since these devices are frequently operated outdoors, battery reliability and convenient field charging are important.

We can develop custom battery packs for pipe locator equipment based on the customer's target model and application requirements.

Reference applications include equipment from Radiodetection, Vivax-Metrotech, and Subsite.

Customization can include:

  • Battery chemistry
  • Voltage
  • Capacity
  • Pack size
  • Connector
  • Protection circuit
  • Charging interface
  • Housing and label

 

7. Laser Distance Meter Battery Solutions

Laser distance meters are compact measurement tools used in construction, installation, surveying, and facility measurement.

Because the internal battery space is usually limited, battery size and connector positioning can be important during development.

We can customize battery packs for laser distance meters based on the device structure and electrical requirements.

Reference applications include Leica, Bosch, Hilti, Makita, and Stanley laser distance measurement equipment.

Typical customization includes:

Custom Voltage · Capacity · Dimensions · Connector · Cable · Protection Circuit

 

8. Laser Level Battery Solutions

Laser levels are commonly used for construction layout, installation, alignment, and indoor or outdoor measurement.

A suitable battery pack needs to provide reliable power while maintaining compatibility with the equipment's original battery compartment.

ShangGuo Technology provides custom battery solutions for laser levels and related construction measurement equipment.

Reference applications include Fukuda, Bosch, Leica, Hilti, and Makita.

 

9. Battery Design & Engineering for Surveying Equipment

Different surveying instruments have different battery compartments and electrical requirements.

For this reason, we do not use a single battery design for every application.

Our engineering process can cover:

Cell Selection

Select suitable lithium battery cells according to required capacity, voltage, discharge performance, size, and application requirements.

Pack Configuration

Design the cell configuration according to the target voltage and capacity while considering the available internal space.

BMS & Protection

Battery protection can be designed according to the requirements of the application, including protection against overcharge, over-discharge, over-current, and short circuit.

Connector & Wiring

Connectors, cable lengths, wire configurations, and terminal positions can be customized to match the equipment.

Mechanical Design

Battery dimensions and structural design are developed around the available battery compartment.

 

10. Custom Battery Specifications

Surveying and GNSS equipment can require very different battery specifications.

Depending on the application, we can customize:

Battery Parameter Custom Options
Voltage According to device requirements
Capacity Customized according to runtime requirements
Battery Size Custom dimensions
Cell Type Li-ion / Li-polymer and other suitable chemistries
Connector Custom connector and terminal
Wiring Custom cable length and configuration
