SPX Radiodetection RD8000 PXL Locator Receiver

SPX Radio Detection RD8000 Cable Pipe Locator

RD8000 – delivering fast, accurate, reliable and repeatable locate data
The RD8000 range of powerful multifunctional cable, pipe and RF marker locators are designed for use across the utility location industry. Designed with operator’s needs in mind, the RD8000 delivers speed, accuracy and reliability, yet remains a cost-effective solution for any application.

RESPONSIVE
The RD8000’s unique combination of digital and analog electronics delivers a sensitive and responsive locator/tool to enable operators to detect and react to extremely low signals associated with difficult to locate utilities.

ERGONOMICS
The RD8000 is ergonomically designed to deliver a superior performing locator that provides the user with a light weight, energy efficient, exceptionally well balanced tool which is comfortable for extended periods of use. Despite its weight and form, the RD8000 retains the environmental durability associated with an IP54 rating, meaning you can operate it in almost any environment.

The locator and transmitter both feature large, high contrast, backlit LCD screens that provide the user with clear information in any light conditions. The intuitive and responsive user interface has easily identifiable icons that are consistent across the locator and transmitter range, ensuring straightforward operation.

CENTROS
RD8000 units are Centros enabled. Centros is a measurement engine based on more than 30 years of continuous development, combining new and innovative algorithms with established software on a high-performance processor core. Centros improves location accuracy and repeatability and delivers timely responsiveness in the field.

SURVEY MEASUREMENTS AND SURVEYCERT
RD8000 locators can store up to 1000 locate records on demand, allowing operators to easily document and report surveys or points of interest. GPS data, from external or internal* GPS can also be stored to enable easy integration with GIS/Mapping systems. Measurements can be transferred to a PDA or PC using Bluetooth or USB* connections.

DATA LOGGING
On board memory* allows over a year’s worth of locate history to be stored at one-second intervals. Data can be backed-up to a PC at any time, giving virtually unlimited record keeping for the life of the product. Retrieved data can be analyzed to aid in ensuring compliance and identifying training requirements.

GPS
All RD8000 models can connect to external GPS receivers, allowing positional data to be associated with locate histories. Optional internal GPS on the RD8000 marker locators provides ‘street level’ accuracy positional data for associating with usage history of points of interest without the need for an external device.

REMOTE CALIBRATION
Using the Windows® compatible supporting software, locators can be checked for correct calibration and operation over the internet, without needing to return the RD8000 to a service center. Operators can then print, email or save a calibration certificate, or book a service should any issues be detected.

TRUDEPTH
TruDepth gives the operator the confidence that the depth reading is accurate by only indicating a locate depth when the locator is correctly oriented directly above the pipe, cable or in close proximity to a marker. Radiodetection's unique automatic marker depth estimation provides measurements without requiring a manual two-step ‘lift up’ process, delivering faster and more accurate surveys.

DYNAMIC OVERLOAD PROTECTION
Dynamic Overload Protection extends the RD8000 operation into areas where other products fail. In electrically noisy environments, particularly in areas where very large signals are present, it automatically filters out unwanted signals allowing the operator to work effectively in areas such as power substations and overhead railway HV cables.

COMBINED PEAK/NULL MODE
Peak/Null Mode is a tool to identify the effects of field distortion due to ground conditions or nearby utilities. Simultaneous display of Peak bargraph response and proportional Null arrows allow a quick assessment of locate conditions.

SIMULTANEOUS MARKER AND LINE LOCATING
For rapid utility detection RD8000 marker locators enable operators to scan for pipes, cables and RF markers at the same time, speeding up locate tasks and minimizing missed locates.

GUIDANCE MODE
Designed for quickly tracking the path of a buried utility, Guidance Mode provides three different indicators to guide the user towards the target line. The target position indicator, proportional arrows and audio signals guide the user towards the target pipe or cable. Compass indicates the orientation of the target and the Signal Strength received from the target is also displayed.

COMPASS
Allows the operator to quickly and easily follow the target line by visually indicating the relative orientation of the target cable or pipe to the locator. By indicating the alignment of the target line to the locator, Compass helps to improve accuracy when measuring depth.

FAULT FIND
Fault Find is a technique that enables an operator to locate a cable fault using an A-frame attached to the locator. On-screen arrows help show the fault’s direction and help the operator locate the fault accurately to within 4" (10cm).

CD (CURRENT DIRECTION)
A method of identifying a target cable amongst a number of parallel cables using CD direction arrows. With CD the operator can locate a target quickly and eliminate wasted time following ghost trails.
