Radiodetection gCAT4+ & Genny4 Hire | GPS, Datalogging & Depth | Network Rail Approved

The Radiodetection gCAT4+ digital platform provides highly refined locate capabilities designed to increase operator safety and efficiency. This hire package includes the gCAT4+ locator, which features integrated GPS and automatic data logging for compliance reporting, and the Genny4 signal generator for precision tracing. The system utilizes a digital bargraph with a tidemark feature to quickly identify peak responses and zero-in on buried conductors.

What are the primary locating modes of the gCAT4+?

The gCAT4+ includes an Avoidance Mode that allows the operator to check an intended excavation area for Power, Radio, and Genny signals simultaneously. This enables the pinpointing of multiple buried utilities in a single scan, significantly improving site safety.

How does the Genny4 improve detection of small cables?

The Genny4 signal generator provides a simultaneous dual-frequency locate output, combining the standard 33kHz signal with a second higher frequency. This specialized output is designed to facilitate the location of small diameter cables such as telecoms and street lighting spurs.

Is this equipment certified for rail infrastructure projects?

Yes, the Radiodetection C.A.T4 and Genny4 range, including the gCAT4+ model, is fully approved for use on the UK’s national rail infrastructure. It holds Network Rail Acceptance Certificate No: PA05/05450 and is manufactured to meet rigorous safety standards.

The gCAT4+ is compatible with a wide range of Radiodetection accessories for specialized utility tracing:

• For connecting to pipe systems, use the Radiodetection Genny Clamp 4" (100mm).
• Ensure a high-quality ground connection with the Radiodetection Genny Earth Stake.
• Trace non-metallic pipes using the Radiodetection S18A Sonde.
• Maintain equipment safety during transport with the Radiodetection Cat Bag Soft Carry.
