The A1500 underground pipeline locator is a professional detection system for accurately locating, tracing, and mapping underground pipelines and cables. It combines a 10 W high-power transmitter with a multi-frequency intelligent receiver, providing real-time position, depth, and signal strength information.
Product Features
✅ Accurate Positioning and Depth Measurement
The A1500 provides reliable location and depth readings with a depth error of ≤5% within 3 meters and ≤10% beyond 3 meters. Real-time depth display and a high-performance chipset support accurate mapping of underground utilities, helping avoid accidental damage during excavation.
✅ 10 W Transmitter for Deeper Detection
With a 10 W output and up to 60 V signal strength, the transmitter delivers strong, stable signals for detecting pipelines and cables at depths of over 6 meters. Compared with traditional 6 W systems, it performs better in deep-buried or congested utility corridors.
✅ Multi-Frequency Detection for Different Utilities
The A1500 supports multiple active frequencies—577 Hz, 8 kHz, 33 kHz, 82 kHz, and 133 kHz—as well as 50 Hz power frequency mode. This allows users to select the most suitable frequency for different pipe materials, depths, and site conditions.
✅ Long Battery Life for Field Work
Dual lithium-ion batteries provide extended operating time:
≥5 hours at 10 W, ≥8 hours at 5 W, and ≥12 hours at 1 W. This supports full-day field work without frequent recharging.
✅ Intelligent Receiver with Clear Guidance
The receiver offers Peak, Valley, and Wide locating modes, with directional arrows and a high-contrast LCD showing depth, signal strength, and current in real time. Automatic gain control and clear visual indicators make the system easy to use, even for less experienced operators.
