Product Details

The Spectra Precision DG813 Pipe Laser is built for contractors who need speed, accuracy, and durability in demanding underground environments. From tight inverts to long-distance trench runs, the DG813 delivers industry-leading productivity with smart automation and rugged construction.

 

Key Advantages

  • Exceptional Accuracy & Auto-Leveling
  • Smart automatic alignment with Spot Finder
  • Bright beam up to 150m / 500ft
  • Radio + Infrared remote control
  • Compact, rugged IP68 housing
  • Longest self-leveling grade range in the industry (-12% to +40%)

 

Designed for Professional Productivity

The DG813 features a reduced-length housing for easier setups in confined spaces and a graphical user interface that eliminates guesswork. No hidden buttons, no complicated menus — just fast, intuitive operation anyone on the crew can use.

Pair it with the SF803 Spot Finder to unlock exclusive auto-alignment features that minimize rework and dramatically accelerate second-day setups.

 



Smart Technology That Saves Time

Smart Spot Finder Technology

  • Automatically aligns the beam to the target
  • Calculates grade for second-day checks
  • Verifies previous work accuracy

Line Set/Check

  • Raises beam up to 100% above the trench
  • Perfect for steep slopes & pipe jacking
  • Eliminates waiting for trench clearance

Line Alert

  • Warns if the laser is bumped
  • Prevents costly grade errors and rework

Cross-Axis Compensation

  • No manual leveling required
  • Faster, more consistent setups

 



Extended Range & Remote Control

The DG813 covers longer runs with fewer setups:

  • Beam Range: up to 150m / 500ft

  • Radio Remote Range: up to 130m / 430ft (over the top)

  • Infrared Remote Range: up to 150m / 500ft (in-pipe)

The RC803 Remote mirrors the laser’s display for seamless control from inside the pipe or outside the trench.

 



Built for Harsh Environments

The DG813 is fully sealed for underground and wet conditions:

  • IP68 Rated (dustproof & waterproof)
  • Handles vibration, mud, and standing water
  • Patented upward-bending target lens makes beam visible from above — no awkward bending

 



Power Options for Long Job Runs

  • NiMH Rechargeable: up to 40 hrs runtime
  • Alkaline Compatibility: up to 50 hrs runtime
  • Optional Car Charger for remote job sites
  • No external battery pack required

 



Spot Finder (SF803) — Make It the Smartest Pipe Laser Available

Unlock exclusive DG813 automation:

Spot Align — Auto-centers to target
Spot Match — Verifies installed grade & slope
SpotLok — Locks beam in place on steep/unstable grades
Spot Search — Finds the beam over long distances

 



Typical Applications

  • Gravity flow sanitary pipelines
  • Storm sewer pipelines
  • Pipe jacking & tunneling
  • Over-the-top setups
  • Mountain/steep slope trenching
  • Renewable energy construction
  • Solar farm / Solar EPC alignment
