The RD8200 is Radiodetection's top of the range precision cable and pipe locator system, which is designed and built in the UK and offers the most advanced features available in the precision ranges of Radiodetection underground locators. Aimed at professional users who need to locate buried cables, pipes and other infrastructure quickly, and accurately, the RD8200 offers a system which uses a diamond cut precision antenna system to deliver fast and precise results in the field.

With 22 active locate frequencies, and a range of other features, including 5 passive locate modes, strike alert and digital signal processing for class leading sensitivity, the RD8200 is an a high end, no compromise locator designed for professional 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 RD8200 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 RD8200 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 RD8200 offers enhanced processing of locate signals for sensitive and accurate results, which also have enhanced reliability, an important feature in highly congested infrastructure.
• Custom Frequencies - Up to 5 additional frequencies can be programmed into your locator to match it to the signals found on your target networks.
• Dual Bluetooth Connectivity - Ready for a Connected World - The RD8200 locator provides a dual Bluetooth system, which combines long range iLOC functionality and low power connectivity to deliver a system ready to connect to cloud based data solutions.
• Power Filters™ - Works where other locators won't - A single key press enables the use of the harmonic properties of power signals to establish if a signal comes from one source, or from multiple cables which you can then trace and mark.

Key Features:

• 22 active locate frequencies
• 5 passive locate modes
• 4 sonde frequencies for best in class versatility - locate non-metallic pipes and sewer camera heads
