3M Dynatel 2273X Cable Pipe Locator
The receiver provides graphical guidance to help distinguish the target line from nearby conductors in congested areas. It's dual peak, dual null, differential, and special peak modes give operators different ways to pinpoint a utility’s position. An expander function makes signal peaks and nulls more pronounced during tracing.
The 2273X also locates cable sheath and ground faults using an A-frame fault-locating accessory. This capability helps maintenance crews narrow down the location of insulation damage on buried cable sections. It combines cable tracing and fault finding in one system, supporting both installation checks and troubleshooting.
Additional functions include locating compatible sondes and identifying cables or cable pairs. The system is useful for telecommunications, electrical utility, and infrastructure maintenance teams working with underground networks. By providing information about a utility’s route, depth, and fault location, it helps crews plan access and focus repair work more efficiently.
Features:
- Buried cable and conductive pipe tracing to identify their underground route.
- Estimated depth measurement for locating utilities.
- Four active tracing frequencies, usable individually or simultaneously.
- Passive locating modes for detecting existing power, cathodic protection, and CATV signals.
- Four locating modes: dual peak, dual null, differential, and special peak.
- Graphical receiver display to help distinguish the target utility from nearby lines.
- Signal expander function to make peaks and nulls more pronounced.
- Cable sheath and ground-fault locating when used with the appropriate A-frame accessory.
- Compatible sonde locating for tracing an active duct probe.
- Cable and cable-pair identification.
- Auxiliary frequencies for locating signals from compatible remote transmitters.
- Operating temperature range: −20°C to +50°C
