FLM 700 – Marker Locator
FLM 700 – Marker Locator
The marker locator Ferrolux FLM 700 is used for locating passive electronic markers of all known manufacturers which are installed in significant places of communication and power cables as well as gas, water and sewage pipes.
The location principle is the transmission of the desired marker frequency and the reception of the signal answer of the located marker.
The Seba Marker 2500 and Omni Marker are buried above the cable during installation of the cable or during repair (i.e. cable socket) and can be reliably and exactly located even years later.
This method of marking is used mainly on non-metallic lines such as optical cables or PE gas or water pipes with which a trace location with inductive line location systems is not possible. But the installation of markers along normal cable routes, for instance to mark cable sockets, cable end points, branches (BK cables) or thermowells, has proven itself.
Performance Features:
- large, high-contrast LCD
- displays up to 8 types of marker
- semi automatic amplification adjustment
- improved noise suppression for fast and precise locating
- great locating depth up 2.40 m
- digital depth display
- acoustic indication (frequency modulation)
- numeric field strength display and bargraph
- ergonomic design for easy operation without weariness
Another highlight is the ”Online-Scan-Mode” which scans and detects all selected markers one after the other.
The feature “Wrong-Marker-Alert” conducts an inspection of the sought after marker during every depth measurement. “Wrong” markers are displayed and an audio warning sounds.
2 Memory slots for arbitrary frequencies in the range of 50 kHz … 170 kHz are available for customer specific uses in addition to the 6 fixed frequencies.
