Product Overview: Amprobe UAT-610 Underground Utilities Locator Kit
Amprobe UAT-610 Underground Utilities Locator Kit
Hitting a power line by accident during a project can result in costly repairs and dangerous public safety concerns. Digging in the wrong spot can cause extra delays and costs for your project and, ultimately, your business. The Amprobe UAT-600 Series, intended to correctly detect underground utilities and buried services up to 100 feet deep with accurate depth measurement to 20 feet, will help you avoid this disturbance.
The locating package includes a transmitter, receiver, test lead kit, batteries, and additional fuses, all contained in a mobile, protective duffle bag. When electrical contact with the cable to be traced is not feasible, the UAT-620 package additionally includes a Signal Clamp for transmitting a signal. Use the UAT-600 Transmitter in conjunction with the optional A-Frame accessory for ground fault locating applications.
Main applications
- Locate energized 50/60 Hz cables carrying current
- Identify the location of all metallic utilities: pipes*, energized and de-energized cables
- Trace individual pipes* or cables (energized or de-energized)
Three testing modes for wide range of applications
- Passive power mode (50/60 Hz) – tracing energized lines conducting current (no Transmitter necessary)
- Passive radio mode (RF) – using surrounding radio waves to trace underground utilities (no Transmitter necessary)
- Active mode using UAT-600-T Transmitter
Three active modes using the UAT-600-T Transmitter
- Induction – the Transmitter will automatically start to radiate a signal around it using an internal antenna, used for tracing individual cables where there is no access to the line to connect test leads or a clamp
- Direct connection with test leads – the most reliable method to trace individual cable or a pipe
- Clamp (Included in the UAT-620 kit, optional for the UAT-610 kit) – provides an efficient and safe method of applying a locate signal to a cable, where it is not possible/safe to gain access to a cable for making an electrical contact
Special applications
- 2 frequency options: 8 kHz and 33 kHz
- Locate non-metallic pipes and sewer lines
- Take depth and current measurements
- Measure voltage, resistance and output current
- Advanced locating with two people
- Locate ground faults with the optional AF-600 A-Frame accessory
