New Utility Cable and Pipe Locator Range Launched
Feb 03 2011
Radiodetection (UK) announces the launch of a new range of precision locators. Over two years ago, Radiodetection launched the popular RD7000™ range of utility specific locators, offering high performance in an ergonomic and exceptionally user-friendly platform. The RD7000™+ products that replace them focus on core user requirements by incorporating Dynamic Overload Protection to improve locate performance in electrically noisy areas and Compass, which determines and displays the orientation of the target cable or pipe, simplifying route determination and helping to improve depth measurement accuracy.
The task of locating specific pipes and cables in large underground networks is becoming increasingly complex, making the operator’s job more difficult and more time-consuming. Radiodetection research into this area identifies improved locator ease of use, accuracy and reliability as key to user requirements. The RD7000+ range addresses these needs with new features that deliver accurate, reliable and repeatable measurements:
Radiodetection’s proprietary Compass feature provides the operator with a visual indication of the orientation of the target cable or pipe. This feature makes following the target line significantly easier, and also makes it easier to position the RD7000+ correctly for maximum depth measurement accuracy.
Dynamic Overload Protection extends the locator’s area of operation into electrically noisy environments where other products fail. Dynamic Overload Protection allows the user to continue to locate accurately in areas with high levels of electromagnetic interference, such as power sub-stations and beneath high voltage transmission lines and overhead or railway HV cables.
