Vivax Loc3-150Tx | 150-Watt Precision Transmitter | High-Output Pipeline Defect Mapping

The Vivax Loc3-150Tx is a specialized 150-Watt transmitter engineered specifically for advanced pipeline maintenance and inspection. Designed for seamless integration with the Defect Mapper (DM) system, this unit excels at providing high-output, low-frequency signal currents essential for anode bed testing and the identification of coating faults. By delivering robust signal penetration over long distances, it serves as the ultimate tool for utility professionals performing pipeline integrity assessments and long-line locating.

What are the primary applications for the Loc3-150Tx transmitter?

This transmitter is primarily used for identifying pipeline coating defects and faulty insulation joints by applying high-output signal currents. It is the designated power source for the vLoc3-DM system, facilitating precise defect mapping and long-line pipeline tracing over extensive distances.

How does the Loc3-150Tx manage power requirements in the field?

The Loc3-150Tx operates without internal battery dependency, instead drawing power from external CP stations, AC mains, or external battery sources. This configuration ensures continuous operation during intensive, long-duration field surveys without the need for frequent battery swaps.

What features ensure durability and user control during inspection?

Housed in high-impact ABS plastic, the unit features a dot matrix display with LED backlighting for monitoring output current, volts, and frequency. Two rotary/push knobs provide intuitive control over frequency selection and output levels, even in challenging field conditions.
