Radiodetection eCAT4+ Cable Avoidance Tool - Depth

StrikeAlert™

Reduce the risk of hitting a shallow cable with the optional StrikeAlert™ warning, enhanced and optimised in the CAT4 range to reduce the instances of false warnings.

SWING™

Radiodetection C.A.Ts are designed to respond exceptionally quickly to even the smallest detectable underground signals. Radiodetection's research into underground signal detection has shown that the ability of an operator to identify these buried utilities is significantly reduced by careless working practices such as excessive or rapid swinging.

To further reduce utility strike risks, eC.A.T4 units are equipped with sensors to detect such incorrect usage and warn the operator with an alert that is also stored in the data log.

Built in Data Acquisition

eC.A.T4 and gC.A.T4 series products can store over a yearžs worth of the key measurements and modes of operation.

gC.A.T4 units are equipped with an internal GPS/GNSS receiver providing positional data logged every second into the C.A.T4 internal memory and showing where the operator was working

C.A.T Manager™ can be used to export log files to enable detailed data usage analysis offering multiple benefits such as identifying training and development needs, and providing independent historical records of the instrumentžs use.

gC.A.T4 data logs can be exported as CSV, XLM or KML files that can be imported into map services like Google Maps^® or Google Earth^®.

Backed-up data on a PC gives virtually unlimited record keeping for the life of the product. 

C.A.T Manager™ Software
C.A.T4 locators are supported with the dedicated C.A.T Manager software package. This Windows^® PC program allows plant, fleet and site managers to minimise down time by performing software upgrades, reproducing calibration certificates and performing online calibrations using eCert.
To match individual preferences or intended use, C.A.T Manager can be used to disable or enable C.A.T4 features such as depth estimation and warnings. User-editable fields enable plant/fleet codes and other details to be stored on the unit, simplifying records and traceability.
CAT Manager is also used to manage Data logs produced by eC.A.T4 and gC.A.T4 models.
Data logs from individual cats are retrieved and stored on a local database. Export function allow users to review and analyse usage or to view the area surveyed on maps services as Google Earth.

Service Due indicator and CALSafe™
Minimise the risk of having to delay a survey because a C.A.T4žs calibration has expired. eC.A.T4 series products provide a 30 days countdown warning to the expiry of the calibration certificate. The optional CALSafe can be set to prevent the unit from operating outside the calibration period, ensuring compliance with company policies – and the interval required between services can be customised within a 1 year period using the C.A.T Manager software.

eCert
eCert provides a fast and thorough test of key circuitry elements within C.A.T4, and validates their performance against the original factory calibration over the internet. eCert, activated through the C.A.T Manager software, provides a fast, thorough and convenient test of the key locating circuitry within C.A.T4, and validates its performance against the original factory calibration. Following an eCert test pass, a Radiodetection Calibration Certificate for that C.A.T4 can be printed or saved. What's more, C.A.T Manager can reproduce the original factory calibration certificate, or any eCert certificates that it has produced, on demand. For a complete maintenance package, Radiodetection also offers exhaustive factory-backed service and recalibration options including full mechanical integrity inspection and function testing.
