RD8100 RF Marker Locator

RD8100 RF Marker Locator

Designed for professionals who need to detect both RF markers and buried utilities, the RD8100 RF Marker Locator range is one of Radiodetection’s most advanced models, optimised for complex situations.

Combining a precision cable and pipe locator with RF marker detection capabilities, it streamlines your workflow by eliminating the need for multiple pieces of equipment, saving you time and money.

Simultaneous RF marker and line locate mode

All RF marker locator models feature a combined line and marker locate mode with automatic marker depth measurement. This enables operators to work more efficiently without sacrificing accuracy.

Choosing the right model

While the RF marker functionality on the RD7100 and RD8100 RF marker locators is identical, they differ in their utility locate functionality. The RD7100 RF marker locator is our reliable everyday locator for tracing, optimised for specific industries. On the other hand, the RD8100 RF marker locator is our most advanced model, ideal for tackling more complex situations.

If you’re unsure which model is right for you, our team at TocDem Utilities can help you assess your needs and recommend the best solution for your specific requirements.

Use Power Filters™ to pinpoint and discriminate between power cables

When a signal transmitter can’t be connected, tracing individual underground power lines through complex networks can be a real challenge: conflicting or powerful signals can confuse the operator, or combine to create a broad wash of signal.

With a single key press you can now utilize the harmonic properties of power signals to establish if a signal comes from one source, or from multiple cables, then trace and mark their routes.

Trace high impedance utilities with 4 kHz (supports CD)

The 4 kHz locate frequency is designed for tracing high impedance lines such as twisted pair telecoms or street lighting.  Since such utilities are often found in areas of dense infrastructure, you can combine 4 kHz with CD to ensure you follow the right line.

Quickly follow lines with Guidance Mode

Guidance Mode allows you to rapidly follow the path of a buried utility. Intuitive proportional arrows, a directional ‘needle’ and differentiated audio tones guide you along the target pipe or cable.

Current Direction (CD)

Current Direction is a powerful tool that augments the capabilities of pipe and cable locators to help operators pick out their target line from others nearby. Using fundamental properties of electromagnetism, CD allows you to locate your utility quickly, and eliminate wasted time following false trails.

Combine accuracy with speed – Peak+ mode

Combine the accuracy of Peak locating with the rapid ground coverage of Guidance arrows in the new Peak+ mode. A single key press lets you check for distortion by comparing Null with Peak.

Peak mode locating is more accurate and less prone to distortion – that’s why it’s always been at the heart of Radiodetection’s cable and pipe locators.  Null mode locating can be faster, but is inherently less accurate.  Peak+ combined these modes, giving the accuracy of Peak and the speed of null.

RD Map™ app

RD Map™ uses Bluetooth to create, in real time*, detailed maps of buried utilities: each survey measurement parameter is appended to the GPS positional information obtained by the locator, external or Android device to map the route of the tracked utility. Map files (CSV or KML) can then be shared via e-mail or any compatible messaging system.

* Requires data connectivity and availability of Google Maps.

Customize the locator to your network frequencies

Up to 5 additional frequencies can be programmed into all RD8100 pipe and cable  locators to match it to the signals found on your target networks.

Fault Find

Combine the RD8100 cable and pipe locator with an accessory A-frame to identify and pinpoint insulation sheath faults to within 4″ (10cm).

Automatic usage logging with GPS positioning

GPS equipped RD8100 cable and pipe locators (models ending with a ‘G’) automatically log key locate parameters every second, providing a comprehensive picture of individual locates, or allowing you to assess usage patterns over periods of a year or more.

The data generated can be used to ensure compliance with best-practice, or to identify training needs before poor work habits develop. Additionally, the data can be used for internal audits, or shared with partners or clients to evidence task completion, or compliance to their requirements.

Usage data can be exported in multiple file formats – for example KML for Google Maps to confirm where and when work was performed.
