FCC Compliant (include 200kHz frequency)

Tx-5 Cable Detection Transmitter

Based on a fully digital platform, the Tx family of signal transmitters has been designed to complement Radiodetection’s advanced high-precision cable and pipe locators including the RD8200 and Marker Locator ranges

The Tx range is designed to meet the demands of tracing utilities through today’s complex underground infrastructure. The Tx-5 has a medium power and induction capability as well as Fault-Find.

The transmitter range features locate frequencies compatible with locators across the Radiodetection Precision Locator ranges, and can be easily customized to match your chosen locator using the ‘model’ feature.

All transmitters feature constant current across their entire bandwidth in all modes (direct connect, clamp or inductive mode), and deliver convenience on-site with an IP65 ingress protection rating, removable accessory tray and a large, high-contrast, backlit LCD screen.

Transmitter Enhancements

SideStepauto™	Automatically selects the best frequency to use based on the load impedance (works only in direct connect mode).
Fault Find	Enables the use of an accessory A-Frame with a compatible locator to detect and pinpoint pipe’s coating and insulation faults and cable’s sheath fault.
Maximum Voltage Selection	Allows the user to increase the voltage, and the current, output to a maximum of 90 Vrms.
Ingress Protection	IP65 – Shock resistant, ingress protected casing protects against knocks, drops, water and dust.
Lithium Ion battery pack option	Deliver extended run-time, lighter weight and superior cold-weather performance by comparison to standard alkaline batteries. No need for operators to replace, manage and recycle alkaline battery cells, reducing the associated costs, workload and environmental burden.
Automatic impedance matching	Transmit your locate signal as far as possible by automatically matching the transmitter impedance to that of your target cable.
Eco Mode	Automatically reduces the output power to allow full depletion of the alkaline batteries. An audio and visual warning provides user feedback (only available with alkaline batteries).
Power Selector	Restricts the power output of the transmitter to a predefined level.
Automatic overvoltage protection system	In the event of an erroneous direct connection to a high voltage line (up to 250V), a warning symbol is displayed advising the operator to take action.
