The new RD7200 precision underground utilities locator is Radiodetection's latest offering into the precision locator series, aimed at accurate and fast location of underground cables and pipes. The RD7200 takes several models from the RD7100 series, which were aimed at various industry professionals and rolls them all into one single unit, which is now suitable for all precision locating professionals across a range of various industries.

With seven active locate frequencies, and a range of other features, including three passive modes, strike alert and digital signal processing for class leading sensitivity, the RD7200 is an all industry, no compromise locator designed for every day use in locating underground power cables, telecommunication network cables and buried pipes. In ever increasingly congested infrastructure, it is imperative for an underground utilities locator to keep operators safe, and also to provide both reliable and accurate results.

The RD7200 has a number of features, which have been improved over previous versions of Radiodetection's precision locator range and now has various performance enhancements including:

• Ease of setup and use - The RD7200 is designed to be an out of the box solution, with a simple and familiar interface. The new display is readable even in sunlight, and a new high performance audio system also adds vibration alerts for use even in the noisiest environments.
• Digital Signal Processing - The new RD7200 offers enhanced processing of locate signals for sensitive and accurate results, which also have enhanced reliability, an important feature in highly congested infrastructure.
• Multi Industry Accurate Locating - A higher number of seven active frequencies, three passive modes, depth in active and passive power mode and built in power filters makes the RD7200 a locator suitable for use in all industries - no more industry specific features or frequencies.
• In built protection for operators - Strike Alert warns the operator of live power cables which may be shallow. The new vibration handle means that the RD7200 uses even more methods of alerting the user, even in noisy work sites and drives correct usage through the in-built swing warning system to ensure that locates are accurate and reliable.
• Peak+ mode - Adds the benefit of guidance arrows to guide you to the peak position faster, and then a single button press allows you to check for signal distortion caused by other buried utilities.
