Product Highlights
Look before you dig! The LKZ-1000 allows construction crews to:
- Detect underground energized (live) wires
- Detect de-energized underground wires
- Trace metallic or non-conductive pipes
- Trace a determined cable
- Determine the depth of a cable
The LKZ-1000 cable & pipe locator consists of an improved LKN-1000 transmitter and the LKO-1000 receiver that together deliver significantly higher detection technology to:
- Detect underground services at greater depths
- Give more accurate depth estimation
- Detect in the presence of high signal interference
LKZ-1000 Technology:
- Four adjustable output levels with maximum output level of 1 W
- Choice of 3 tracing signals, 8 kHz or 33 kHz, or at 8 kHz and 33 kHz together
- Locates cables up to 3 m, 10 ft deep
- Trace non-conductive pipelines using a “floating” probe
- Transmitter detection of de-energized underground wires using a galvanized, inductive, or clamp-based connection
- Trace metallic or non-conductive pipes using an additional probe
- Location by connecting the transmitter directly to an object that is not live
- Location by using an adapter that connects the transmitter to an AC outlet
User-friendly Design Features:
- Compact and light-weight for less fatigue when operating for long periods
- Sensibly located control buttons for hand operation
- Easy-to-view backlit LCD with contrast + auto on-off
- Clear visual and audio signals for easier operation
- Automatic adjustment of detection sensitivity
- 5 operating modes
- Durable waterproof design for harsh outdoor conditions; protection rating of IP65
- Self-test function to test the LKN-1000 before use
- Shallow cable-depth warning indicator
- Cable direction indication
- Audio tones to facilitate locating or tracing
- Adjustment of transmitter power and frequency
Passive or Active Operating Modes:
- Passive POWER with 50 Hz or 60 Hz – enables location of live wires and cables
- Passive RADIO (15-30 kHz) – for quick, non-selective location of an underground metallic installation
- Active with transmitter (8 kHz and 33 kHz), enables detection using the inductive mode; just place the transmitter over the traced object
