LKO-1500-LITE / LKO-1500
The LKO-1500 Receiver paired with the LKN-1500 transmitter is designed to locate and trace ca-
ble
and pipe lines (hereinafter referred to as the “utilities”). However, there is the possibility of self-
operation of the receiver, without aid of the transmitter, i.e.:
on the 50 Hz and 550 Hz frequencies it locates cable lines by detection induced signal of the
industrial frequency current;
on the 100 Hz and 300 Hz frequencies it locates utilities and finds areas of damaged insula-
tion of pipes by detecting Electrochemical protection signals;
on the 550 Hz and 1450 Hz frequencies it locates the areas of ground fault of overhead lines
by detection current harmonics;
in the
SB
(sound band) mode it locates utilities by re-radiated broadcasting and telephone
signals within the frequency band from 48 Hz to 14 kHz.
in the
Radio
modes it locates utilities by detecting induced broadcasting signals within the
frequency band from 10 kHz to 36 kHz.
4.1
Principles of operation
The Receiver locates utilities and cable faults by the induction method. Replacement sensors fa-
cilitate finding damaged insulation by the voltage caused by the current to the ground.
The alternating magnetic field induced by the utility and/or the voltage generated in the replace-
ment sensors are transformed into a signal form. This signal is amplified and processed by the digital
signal processor. Then the signal levels are displayed in a form of line bars and digital values in dB or
Volts. The indication may be supported with the audible signal.
