3M  Dynatel 2273E Cable/Pipe and Fault Locator

The 3M Dynatel 2273E Cable/Fault Locator is a microprocessor-based system that incorporates advanced digital signal processing techniques to quickly and efficiently locate sheath (earth return) faults and trace the path of underground cables, both copper and fiber optic (with metallic trace wire). Lightweight, compact and wellbalanced,  the cable/fault locator accurately:

 ● Locates cable path
 ● Measures cable or sonde depth with the push of a button
 ● Measures signal current in the cable
 ● Pinpoints sheath faults and cable breaks
 ● Discriminates between light and heavy faults
 ● Identifies cable and cable pairs (with coupler accessory)
 ● Tones shorts and grounds in aerial cable
 ● Identifies cable pairs through wet sections with optional 3011 inductive probe
 ● Locates energized power cable with direct readout of cable depth

The 2273E cable/fault locator provides accurate cable or sonde depth
measurements, giving a digital readout in centimeters, inches, or feet and inches (user-selectable).

Additionally, when used in conjunction with the 3M?Dynatel?2205/2206 EMS Marker
Locating Accessory, the system can:
 ● Pinpoint the exact location of buried EMS markers
 ● Trace a cable path while simultaneously finding buried markers along the way

The 2273E cable/fault locator can precisely locate sheath (earth return) faults on
both short and long cable sections. The unit sends a trace signal simultaneously with the faultlocate signal, allowing the operator to use the cable-locate function when locating sheath faults in long cable sections. Sheath (earth return) fault strength is indicated on the receiver LCD display, allowing minor faults to be ignored, if desired.
