Electronic Locators - Vivax-Metrotech vLoc3-Pro

The vLoc3-Pro utility locator from Vivax-Metrotech has two sets of 3D antennas, allowing signal distortion to be easily detected and displayed on the color display. Along with classic locate screens, it offers vector locate for automatic nonwalkover locating, a transverse graph showing peak and null simultaneously providing immediate measurement of signal distortion, plan view showing the orientation of the cable at any angle, and a graphical sonde screen with guidance arrows leading to the sonde location even when it is vertical. The user configurable locator has eight passive modes, fault-find, SD (showing direction of outgoing current), and a range of configurable frequencies from 16Hz to 200 kHz. Audio and mechanical vibration alerts can be configured by the user, providing warnings for shallow depth, overload, overhead cables and excessive swinging. 800-446-3392; www.vxmt.com.
