You save £29.35 (5%)
The **Dart Flexitrace 9mm x 50m** is a specialized pipe and duct tracing system that serves as a lightweight alternative to traditional cobra rods and sonde transmitters. Constructed from a high-strength **glass fibre rod** with integrated **copper conductors** and a durable **polypropylene sheath**, this unit is housed in a robust steel frame equipped with a manual brake for controlled deployment. It is specifically engineered to locate buried non-metallic pipes and ducts with diameters as small as **15 mm**.
How does the Dart Flexitrace facilitate pipe and duct location?
This system allows for both **Sonde Location** to identify specific blockages and **Line Location** to map the entire length of the pipe. By energizing the end coil housing or the full rod length with a compatible **33kHz** signal generator, operators can determine the path and depth of non-metallic utilities up to **3 meters** deep.
What are the primary technical specifications of this 50m Flexitrace system?
The unit features a **9mm rod diameter** and a compact **12mm x 70mm sonde**, making it suitable for tight environments. The entire assembly is mounted on a steel frame measuring **950mm x 820mm x 400mm**, ensuring portability for a single operator without the need for external batteries.
Can this system be used with standard cable avoiding tools?
Yes, the Dart Flexitrace is fully compatible with any **standard Signal Generator and C.A.T.** (Cable Avoiding Tool) that operates at the industry-standard **33kHz** frequency. It connects directly to the generator terminals to energize the internal copper conductors, allowing the locator to pick up the signal through soil and pipe walls.
