The C.A.T4+ offers the same locating performance as the C.A.T4 but with addition of Depth measurement, allowing better identification of the route of buried utilities
The controls on the CAT4+ are simple and easy to operate. The high visibility display screen is also uncluttered and simple to read and the bargraph enables the operator to quickly spot a peak response and zero in on a buried conductor.
The C.A.T4 can be used effectively in 4 modes; avoidance mode, genny mode, power mode and radio mode:
- Avoidance mode - simultaneous detection of genny, power and radio signals
- Power mode – used for detecting electromagnetic fields (EMFs) that surround buried power cables
- Radio mode – used for detecting long-range radio signals travelling along buried pipes and cables
- Genny mode – used for solely detecting signals generated by the Radiodetection Genny4 Signal Generator
- Depth function: When used in ‘genny mode’ (which requires use of the Genny4), the instrument will display a depth indication to a located utility service
- Dynamic Overvoltage Protection function: enables the locator to operate in electrically noisy areas
- Strike Alert function: displays the location of services that are buried at a shallow depth, which could potentially cause a ‘strike’ risk if left undetected
