ai200-TX
Underground pipe and cable locator transmitter injects active signals by direct connection, induced with clamp or built-in antenna:
- In places where it is possible to make a direct connection, ai200 underground pipe and cable locator signals are injected with alligator clamps: de-energized electric cables, telephone cables, water and gas metallic pipes, etc.
- If it is possible to access the cable but is energized, signals may be induced with the underground cable locator´s injection clamp: energized MV and LV cables, telephone cables, etc.
- If the cable can not be reached or its position is unknown, induction can be made from the earth surface using a built-in antenna on the ai200 underground cable locator: electricity, telephone, gas and water utilities cable and pipe avoidance before digging, etc.
Injected power level on ai200 underground pipe and cable locator is selectable up to 10W.
Measures loop impedance, making it possible to choose the best working frequency on each case.
ai200-RX
Underground pipe and cable locator receiver detects 3 active signals (sent by the transmitter) and 2 passive 50/60Hz and radio signals (radiated by utility networks).
Built-in antenna configuration on ai200 underground pipe locator automatically calculates the target position with a digitally processed algorithm.
A large size LCD screen shows two arrows that help users pinpoint underground pipe and cables in an easy and intuitively way.
Measures pipe’s and cable’s depth by pushing a simple button.
As an optional feature ai200 can also positively identify (discriminate) electric and telephone cables using different types of sensors, depending on cable’s accessibility (trenches, manholes, transformer substations, etc.).
