You save £651.00 (18%)
The Radiodetection RD8200 Precision Cable Locator is engineered to meet the complex challenges of modern utility detection. Built with an intuitive interface and a sunlight-readable transflective LCD, this locator provides fast, repeatable measurements in any lighting condition. Its proprietary TruDepthâ„¢ system ensures that depth and current readings are only displayed when the device is correctly oriented above the target utility, providing operators with maximum confidence during field operations.
How does the RD8200 handle signal interference?
The device utilizes Dynamic Overload Protection to automatically filter out electrical noise, making it suitable for use near substations or overhead power lines. Additionally, Power Filtersâ„¢ allow technicians to trace individual lines through dense networks by ignoring conflicting or powerful signals.
What features ensure measurement accuracy in the field?
Accuracy is maintained through a built-in gyroscopic measurement system that triggers a Swing Warning if the device is not kept perpendicular to the ground. Vibration alerts and five levels of high-performance audio provide immediate feedback to the operator, even in noisy industrial environments.
Can the RD8200 identify specific utility lines in dense networks?
Yes, when used with a compatible transmitter, the Current Direction (CD) feature displays specialized arrows on the locator to confirm the operator is tracing the intended line. This eliminates guesswork when working alongside multiple parallel utilities.
