CAT4 and Genny4 Kit Application Scenario

Included GENNY4 Signal Generator

While the CAT4 and Genny4 Kit is a dynamo by itself, its capabilities are substantially extended with the included GENNY4 Signal Generator. The GENNY4 enhances CAT4 and Genny4 Kit’s features by offering a dual-frequency locate signal. It maintains the standard 33 kHz frequency for general utility locates while introducing a higher frequency specifically engineered to detect smaller utilities like telecom cables and street lamps. If you encounter challenging terrains, GENNY4’s power boost function ensures that the locate signal travels further and more deeply, coupling onto utilities effortlessly.

Built-In Safety Protocols: StrikeAlert™

Radiodetection’s proprietary StrikeAlert™ warning mechanism offers an additional safety layer by delivering immediate warnings of shallow buried utilities. The CAT4 and Genny4 Kit is also designed to encourage safer and more effective work practices through its SWING™ Rate detector and Service Due date alerts.

C.A.T Manager Software Integration

CAT4 and Genny4 Kit devices are complemented by the specialized Locator Management Software suite for Windows® PCs. This software empowers facility, fleet, and project managers to minimize operational disruptions by executing software updates, initiating service requests, or generating calibration certificates. To tailor the device to specific needs or applications, the software allows for the customization of CAT4 and Genny4 Kit functionalities, such as depth prediction and alert settings. Editable fields within the software permit the storage of fleet or facility codes and additional data directly on the device, streamlining record-keeping and traceability.

Service Due Indicator and CALSafe™

Mitigate the risk of postponing a survey due to an expired calibration on a CAT4 and Genny4 Kit device. The optional CALSafe feature can be configured to restrict the device's operation beyond the calibration expiration date, thereby aligning with organizational policies. Additionally, the time span between required maintenance services can be individually adjusted up to a one-year period through the Locator Management Software.

Network Rail Approval

The CAT4 and Genny4 Kit, along with their accessories, has received Network Rail certification, making them suitable for use on the UK's national rail infrastructure.

Backward Compatibility

Consistent with Radiodetection’s commitment to enduring utility, the CAT4 and Genny4 Kit maintains backward compatibility with all C.A.T3 and Genny3 accessories, offering you more flexibility and investment safeguarding.

Enhance Safety While Excavating

The proprietary StrikeAlert™ technology from Radiodetection has been refined to minimize the occurrence of shallow cable strikes. The CAT4 and Genny4 Kit device encourages users to adopt safer and more efficient work habits through its optional SWING™ Rate monitoring feature and reminders for upcoming service dates.

Optional Data Logging Features

Optional data logging features enable Facility Managers to oversee their equipment fleet in a safer and more effective manner by offering detailed usage logs of the CAT4 and Genny4 Kit for review and staff training.

Safety and Policy Compliance

The CAT4 and Genny4 Kit is not just a tool but a safety-critical precision instrument. It is meticulously designed to comply with company and industry service policies. With an optional 30-day countdown to the Service Due date, CALSafe™, and eCert™ online system calibration validation features, the CAT4 and Genny4 Kit sets the standard for safety and operational excellence.
