ADA Profilers

The CS8600 is a trike-mounted system capable of up to 15 mph collection speeds. The software uses the same procedure as the CS8900 Walking ADA Profiler, but the CS8600 has faster point-to-point collection speeds. If you have a large network of sidewalks to collect the CS8600 is right for you.

Both systems are accurate and repeatable against each other.

The CS8900 and CS8600 both use GPS to tag all user notes and identify out of compliance sections of pavement. All data points can be exported to GIS, PDF, or Excel for records or statistical analysis of the network.

ASTM E2133 – SSI CS8800 and CS8900 Walking Profilers comply with ASTM rolling inclinometer standards. Test surfaces have proven 99% repeatability.

Collection and reporting standards comply with local and agency standards for ADA collection devices.
