Unit dimensions	687mm × 350mm × 177mm

All specifications are measured in test conditions, at 21°C, and fitted with 2 × good quality alkaline batteries unless otherwise noted.
^* The antenna loop is IP55 rated. Minimal dust ingress can occur, this does not affect performance
¹ Based on volumetric testing at a known fixed depth. True depth accuracy depends on factors such as ground composition, utility characteristics and the locate frequency / signal strength employed. Always follow local safe digging guidelines.
² The RD7200 will locate to greater depths in the right conditions, but depth accuracy will be compromised. Depth measurement will not be displayed beyond these depths.
³ Water projected by a nozzle at a pressure of 30kPa /0.3 bar / 4.4 psi in accordance with BS EN 60529 1992 A2 2013.
⁴ At very low temperatures, battery life will be degraded and measurement precision may be reduced.

Construction

Accurate and simple to use, the MRX SG comes with twenty one active and four passive frequencies (Power, Radio, CPS and CATV) that cover the majority of site locating tasks. A rugged, IP65 rated casing along with a high contrast screen make it suitable for use in all weather conditions.

Power

Current Direction, track the right line
Identify your target amongst a number of parallel utilities by applying a specialized CD signal from a Tx-10 transmitter. CD arrows displayed on the locator confirm you are tracing your target line.

Power Filters™, works where other locators won’t
When a transmitter can’t be connected, tracing individual power lines through dense networks can be a real challenge. Conflicting or powerful signals confuse or combine to create a wash of signal.

A single key press enables the use of the harmonic properties of power signals to establish if a signal comes from one source, or from multiple cables which you can then trace and mark.

Dynamic Overload Protection, rejects unwanted interference
Automatically filters out interference, enabling use in electrically noisy environments such as near substations or overhead power lines.

Water and Pipeline

A wide choice of active frequencies allow conductive pipes to be traced for long distances. Where sondes or cameras are used to survey pipes made from a variety of materials, including cast iron, clay, fibre, concrete and brick, the four MRX sonde frequencies are ideal for quickly locating and tracing their position.

Pipes with Cathodic Protection System can be followed using the CPS passive mode. CPS compass mode ensures alignment with the target pipeline.

Telecom

Program up to 5 extra frequencies to customize the MRX SG to signals found on your network. The MRX SG features higher frequencies to locate high impedance lines and sonde frequencies for duct and conduit tracing. Higher frequencies can also be used to trace sheathed domestic cables without grounding connections.

Cable sheath faults can be located to within 10 cm using 8 kHz Fault Find mode with a Radiodetection A-Frame
