Radiodetection RD5100H2O Precision Pipe and Cable Locator for Underground Utilities Model 10/51H2OI60-US

The Radiodetection RD5100H2O is an accurate reliable locator with a single mode frequency of 83kHz used to locate metallic pipes. The RD5100H2O locator is well built, has an IP65 ingress protection against dust and water, and a compact size to make this the ideal locator for locating underground gas and water pipes.

The RD5100 Pipe Locators series is designed to handle problems where pipes have a rubber seal, insulators or gaps between sections. The 83kHz of the RD5100H2O is great for locating disjointed pipes and cables as well as plastic pipes with a tracer wire. This signal is more likely to penetrate the gap of broken trace wire and other discontinuities and still impose signal on the downstream side of the conductor.

 

The RD5100 series of locators are lightweight, easy to use, and have a large, clear, easy to read display screen. The screen is well designed with pertinent information such as guidance arrows, compass, and signal strength helping the locating operator to hone in on the target. These features plus some additional ones are standard on the locators in this series.

The Radiodetection RD5100H2O has a Power passive frequency that takes advantage of signals that are already present on buried metallic conductors. Power frequencies may be detected without the aid of a transmitter. In addition, the RD1500H2O receiver can also be used with the RD5100 Transmitter 10/51H2OTX-US. If using the transmitter, you can locate pipes by either a direct connection or induction.

A great additional feature for the RD5100H2O is that it comes standard with rechargeable Li-ion batteries that extend the operating time and reduce the cost of purchasing additional batteries.

The RD5100H2O locator can be purchase separately or as part of the kit 10/51H2OI60-KIT which includes the 5100H2O Locator and Transmitter, Li-ion battery packs, earth stake, direct connection lead, and soft bag.
