Reference # : Model No : RD500

The RD500 is a locator for underground plastic water pipes. A transonde is used to vibrate the water as it passes through it and across an internal spring system sending a minute sound wave back along the pipe. This sound wave is then detected using the RD500 receiver hence locating the water pipe.

Benefits

• Simple operation - a meter deflects showing pick-up of the vibrations on the water pipe • No disruption of services while locating • Audible and visual tracing indicator • Variable Power Pulsers (TransOnde) supplied • Distances up to 800 meters may be traced • Locate up to 2 meter depth
