Extends the RD8000's locate capability into areas where other products fail. Automatically filters out large and unwanted signals while ensuring accurate location of the target pipe or cable. Particularly useful in electrically noisy environments surch as power sub stations or near overhead high-voltage cables.

Bluetooth Connectivity and GPS
Bluetooth connectivity as standard. This allows the locators to interface to external devices for easy transfer of survey data directly into maps and databases. Optional integrated GPS option for RD8000 models, which enables association of survey data with positional data without the need to carry external equipment. The RD Manager PC software allows easy transfer of the locator's survey data directly into common file formats such as KML for Google Earth.

Data logging and CALSafe
Optional integral logging systems for marker models. It records up to 1 year's typical usage of significant locate parameters every second (including positional data for RD8000 GPS models) and helps identifying training and development needs, and proides independent historical records of the instrument's use. Backed-up data on a PC gives virtually unlimited record keeping for the life of the product. All marker locator units that feature data logging or GPS provide a convenient 30-day service countdown reminder. CALSafe, a user selectable tool, can be enabled to enforce a recall for service and calibration by disabling the unit after this date.

Transmitters
Three models cable of delivering up to 10W of true output power, maintaining constant current across their entire bandwidth in direct connect, clamp or inductive modes to enable fast and repeatable surveys. Tx-5 models feature 8kHZ Fault Find functionality; Tx-10 models feature both 8kHZ Fault Find and Current Direction functions. Tx-5 and Tx-10B models support iLOC functionality which enables remote control features simplying operation and reducing surveyting time. Tx-10B fully supports the extended range of the RD8000 PTLM locator to targe telecom and power industries. 90V output capability: All transmitters offer both 30V output options, resulting in higher signal current delivered on high impedance target lines than typical transmitters that only offer a 50V output. Higher signals are more locatable signals that travel a longer distance. SideStepauto: allows the transmitter to calculate the optimum frequency based on ground impedance. The transmitter uses this information to optimize the active frequency. Sidestepauto helps to improve locate accuracy and extends battery life. ECO mode: extends alkaline battery life by warning the operator and gradually reducing the power output in low battery condition
( Tx-5 and Tx-10 models only).

Rechargeable battery packs for Locators and Transmitters.

Available for Precision Cable and Pipe Locators and the Tx Transmitter range. Standard for all Marker Locator Models. Offer increased flexibility. Provide improved cost-of-ownership. Deliver excellent run-time and superior cold-weather performance by comparison to standard alkaline batteries. No need for operators to replace, manage and recycle alkaline battery cells, reducing the associated costs, workload and environmental burden. Locator rechargeable battery packs are supplied with a mains charger (90V to 240V,50/60Hz) as standard. An automotive charger (12V to 24V DC) is also available for use on the move. Transmitter rechargeable packs are available in kits that include the rechargeable battery pack, a mains charger (90V to 240V, 50/60Hz) and an automotive charger (12V to 24V DC). Individual chargers and battery packs are also available as separate parts for both locators and transmitters.

Remote Calibration
Using the Windows compatible supporting software, locators can be checked for correct calibration and operation over the internet using eCERT ( for marker models) or eCAL ( for non-marker models ) calibration validation service, without needing to return the RD8000 to a service center. Operations can then print, email or save a calibration certificate, or book a service should any issues be detected. eCAL can issue and print validation certificate without needing to return the RD8000 to a service center. More information on eCAL.

Radiodetection Transmitters
Based on a fully digital platform, the family of Radiodetection transmitters has been designed to support the range of Radiodetection RD7000ﾙ and RD8000 cable, pipe and RF marker locators.

The Tx-1 is a low power transmitter. The Tx-5 has a higher power and induction capability as well as Fault Find. The Tx-10 has the highest power capability with both Fault Find and CD modes as standard.

All models feature constant current across their entire bandwidth in either direct connect, clamp or inductive mode. The transmitters are light-weight (6lb / 2.9kg), well-balanced and IP54 rated to cope with demanding environmental conditions. Each model has a removable accessory tray and a weatherproof battery compartment. A large, high contrast, backlit LCD screen provides the user with clear information.

90V output capability: All transmitters offer both 30V and 90V output options, resulting in higher signal current delivered on high impedance target lines than typical transmitters that only offer a 50V output. Higher signal levels are more locatable, and travel over longer distances.

SideStepautoﾙ: allows the transmitter to calculate the optimum frequency based on ground impedance. The transmitter uses this information to optimize the active frequency. SideStepauto helps to improve locate accuracy and extends battery life.

To support the extended RD8000 iLOC feature set, the Tx-5B and Tx-10B can be ordered with integrated iLOC remote transmitter control.

The transmitter range features Direct Connect and induction frequencies compatible with locators across the RD8000 range, and can be easily customized to match your locator using the ﾑmodelﾒ feature. The Tx-10B transmitter includes the additional ﾑPTLﾒ model featuring the additional frequencies of the RD8000PTLM locator.

A multimeter function enables quick measurements of output voltage, line voltage, current, impedance and power.

The transmitters are powered either by 8 standard D-cell batteries (alkaline or rechargeable NiMH) or by the Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery pack (available separately). Alternatively, the Tx range can be powered from a 12V vehicle source using a Radiodetection approved isolation transformer.

Alkaline battery life can be extended by enabling ECO mode which warns the operator and gradually reduces the power output in low battery conditions (Tx-5 and Tx-10 models only).
