Schonstedt Rex Cable Locator Receiver

The Schonstedt Rex Cable Locator Receiver is a versatile and lightweight receiver with advanced performance to locate electric and telecom wires, water and sewer lines, and gas and oil pipelines. The Schonstedt Rex Receiver features three active frequencies: 512 Hz, 33 kHz, and 82 kHz, and two passive frequencies: 50 or 60 Hz, plus a Sonde frequency of 512 Hz. The Schonstedt Rex Cable Receiver can also be purchased as a kit with the transmitter: Schonstedt Rex Multi-Frequency Pipe and Cable Locator with Ultralight Transmitter.

The receiver’s LCD displays directional arrows to show you where to move the receiver to be directly over the target. The Rex receiver also gives an audible tone that increases in pitch as it nears the target. Another user-friendly feature is the automatic gain adjustment, where the sensitivity of the receiver is automatically adjusted based on the strength of the detected signal. You can also switch to manual gain adjustment with a press of a button.

 

A technician can operate the Rex Receiver with one hand, and the intuitive controls require a minimum of training.

The Rex cable locator receiver retracts from 27.7” to 17.5”, so it can easily fit into the lightweight padded case for easy storage and transportation. Despite its light and portable build, the Rex receiver can withstand extreme temperatures and resist water and dust to IP54 standards. The Schonstedt Rex receiver is powered by one 9-volt battery with a battery life of approximately 12 hours of intermittent use.
