SONEL Locator & Transmitter, How to Use the Locator
11
• Passive modes (Power and Radio)
• Active modes (8kHz and 33kHz)
• Auto mode (Combined Power and Radio modes)
An electromagnetic signal radiates from buried conductive services as an electrical current flows
through them. The Locator processes these signals and displays their presence.
Some signals are already present on buried services and can be readily detected by the
Locator. We call these passive signals. These signals are generated by power distribution
systems and radio transmitters.
Some conductive services do not emit passive signals. These services may be traced by
applying a signal to the service by using a transmitter.
Depth indication is only available with the Locator when used in conjunction with the Transmitter
or Sonde. The displayed depth is to the centre of the service or to the Sonde.
Provides an additional alarm, indicating the close proximity of a service emitting a Power, 8kHz
or 33kHz signal.
Assists in pinpointing a service by displaying the peak reading for a short period of time.
