The VM-510FFL+ is the perfect all-in-one cable & fault find locator system with w/push-button depth. The VM-510FFL+ works with newer 1-watt, 5-watt & 10-watt transmitters. These transmitters combine built-in fault-find modes (8kFF) and precise resistance measurement for quick, accurate fault locates. Adding VM-510FFL to any new VM-550/VM-560/vLoc3-Pro/vLoc3-9800/vLoc3-5000/vLoc3-RTK kit allows for full cable fault-locating capabilities.

The vLoc3-Pro receiver has built-in cable fault locating, featuring one-pass fault-find and cable locating, saving time and money on the job site. Both 10-watt and 5-watt offer fault-find modes. Transmitters combine built-in fault-find modes and precise resistance measurement. Optional A-Frame accessory or "stand-alone" needed.

The vLoc3-5000 receiver has built-in cable fault locating, featuring one-pass fault-find and cable locating, saving time and money on the job site. Both 10-watt and 5-watt offer fault-find modes. The SIS Transmitter combines built-in fault-find modes and precise resistance measurement. Optional A-Frame accessory or "stand-alone" needed.

The vLoc3-9800 receiver has built-in cable fault locating, featuring one-pass fault-find and cable locating, saving time and money on the job site. Both 10-watt and 5-watt offer fault-find modes.

The PinPointR design provides ease-of-use locate & mark features and grid collection for mapping & survey work. It is a full-featured GPR system with mapping capabilities. In addition, the PinPointR provides the added performance of dual-channel GPR with Real-Time Sampling.

The Combiphon pulse generator system from Sewerin provides a method of locating non-metallic plastic pipe using a Sewerin acoustic leak detector to listen for the sound provided by the Combiphon "Stopper" or "Striker." When installed around a pipe, the Striker acts like an electric hammer, where it steadily strikes a vibration onto the pipe. The Stopper provides a pulse into the water column via its electric-controlled piston. The Stopper installs at a nearby fire hydrant.

Duct Hunter rodder systems from Jameson can be pushed into non-locatable pipes and ducts, and when used with pipe & cable locators, the length of the rod can be locatable. Rod diameters range from 3/16" to 7/16," and rod lengths range from 100' to 600' lengths.

Jameson's 3/16" Gas Line Tracer System is designed for pressurized natural gas service lines. Once inside the pipe, the rod via the reel can be connected to a pipe & cable locator transmitter, allowing technicians to locate "un-locatable" gas services. Lengths from 100' to 325' are available.

We offer a complete catalog of sondes. Sondes can be used with other camera systems lacking this feature or rodders' end for locating non-metallic pipes. Available frequencies include 512Hz, 9.82kHz, 33kHz, 83.1kHz.

The vLoc3-Cam receiver is designed primarily for locating sondes (most frequencies). Users can also use passive and radio modes to find signals radiating from adjacent pipes and cables. These passive modes provide the ability to sweep an area for both known and unknown utilities. The active mode (83 kHz) allows users to locate the entire pushrod length using an optional transmitter.

The vScan receiver is a fully-featured sonde & camera locator. It offers the push-button depth, line compass, 512Hz & 33kHz sonde frequencies, power 60, Radio mode, and much more.

The VM-540 is our most affordable sonde locator. Perfect for anyone on a tight budget. While features and pricing are minimal, performance is excellent.

The vLoc3-DM Pipe Defect Current Mapper is a professional pipeline multi-tool designed to identify pipeline coating defects and contact shorts to other structures that can render cathodic protection ineffective. Using the attached magnetometer (foot), users can identify areas of the pipeline where coating defects or shorts are present. When used with the A-Frame (ACVG), users can pinpoint these defects for excavation and restoration. When using just the receiver alone, then the vLoc3-DM becomes a full-featured deep pipe locator. Available transmitters are 10-watt, 25-watt, or 150-watt.
