Edited by the Buildingtalk editorial team Jul 1, 2009

The successful launch of the RD8000 range of pipe and cable locators from Radiodetection, has led to incresed sales due to the innovative current direction feature.

Available on Radiodetection's most advanced locator the RD8000PDL, current direction (CD) enables operators to trace and identify a target cable in highly congested areas or when running parallel to other lines.

Radiodetection has developed and patented a unique method of identifying a target cable amongst a number of parallel cables using CD direction arrows.

A signal is applied to the target line using Radiodetection's Tx-10 signal transmitter and the RD8000 hand held receiver shows the direction of the current flow on the line.

The target line can be identified if the receiver display arrow shows that the current is flowing away from the point of application of the transmitter signal.

The incorporation of CD is a great step forward as not only does it significantly improve locate accuracy but also gives the operator increased confidence that they are locating the correct pipe or cable.

This unique feature saves both time and money, with operators eliminating wasted time following faulty trails enabling them to carry out a job efficiently and cost-effectively.

The RD8000 represents Radiodetection's continuing development and improvement of pipe and cable location systems, providing the broadest range and choice for any user.
