GA-72Cd Magnetic Locator detects the magnetic field of iron and steel objects. It provides audio detection signals that peak in frequency when the locator’s tip is held directly over the target. The GA-72Cd has the option of nulling or peaking.
Also, it only has two Controls! Designed for one-hand operations, the On/Off-Sensitivity and Volume controls are located on the underside of the cover. This provides easy access, protects the knobs and contributes to their overall ruggedness and dependability.
Using innovative HeliFlux sensor technology, Schonstedt locators can detect the magnetic fields that are present on any buried ferrous and steel objects or man-made magnets and markers.
What are ferrous metals? These are metals which contain iron. They may have small amounts of other metals or other elements added, to give the required properties. Alloys of iron and steel are the most common of all commercial metals. These include wrought
iron, cast iron, carbon steels, alloy steels and tool steels.
TocDem Utilities beats the competition on price, quality, and after-sales support with all our Marker Locators. We’re dedicated to helping you long after your purchase, with all parts and accessories in stock. Our re-calibration service in the well-established workshop is fast and reliable. Additionally, our engineers have over 100 years of combined experience in electronics and hydraulics.
We also invest in our people and we provide constant training on the latest techniques. As a Radiodetection GOLD distributor, we’re your go-to source for underground cable location, survey, ground penetrating radars, and many other accessories. Our friendly team can help with national and international shipping and customs clearance.
Designed to withstand the rigors of daily on-site usage and a wide range of environmental conditions
Analog output signal for input to a data logger. The signal varies in proportion to signal strength allows recording of object profiles for training
Our HeliFlux sensors provide high sensitivity allowing Schonstedt products to detect products down to a depth of 5.5m / 18’
Eliminates false locates
Schonstedt’s unique, patented HeliFlux magnetic field sensors provide much higher sensitivity than the standard ring core sensors that most of the competition uses, giving users of Schonstedt products a clear advantage when searching for deeply buried objects and when wanting to pinpoint the exact shape of utilities
The design and construction of our magnetic locators make them that rare combination of high performance, rugged and also straightforward to maintain and repair, leading to low overall total cost of ownership
Protects the locator from knocks and scrapes when not in use and stored in equipment vans or trucks
Users of Schonstedt products can be confident in the low total cost of ownership of their purchases because they are supported by a 7 year warranty. Some competitors offer 2 or more, but most only provide 1-year coverage
