How accurate is the RD7200 locator in complex urban utility networks?

The RD7200 locator is recognized for its precision in tracing underground utilities, even in complex urban environments. Its advanced multi-frequency capabilities and tailored modes provide effective detection, delivering reliable location data that help reduce risks linked to utility network mapping, especially in cities with dense infrastructure.

Technical Performance of the RD7200 in Urban Utility Networks

The RD7200 locator is engineered to meet the demands of modern utility detection. Urban utility networks pose significant challenges due to signal interference, the proximity of multiple buried lines, and dense construction. The RD7200 minimizes these issues with its robust sensitivity and interference rejection systems. Its usage of several active and passive frequencies allows professionals to distinguish between closely situated cables and pipes, enhancing accuracy which typically ranges within a 10-15 cm margin under optimal conditions.

This high precision is further supported by network detection and inspection equipment that complements the RD7200, forming a comprehensive solution for contractors and surveyors. Site-specific calibration, digital signal processing, and detailed mapping capabilities contribute to consistent field results. Techniques such as conducting a multi-directional sweep and comparing signals using different frequencies can dramatically improve the accuracy of detected assets.

• Optimized frequency modes for congested urban sites
• Automatic depth estimation to avoid manual errors
• Data logging for compliance and project documentation

For smaller job sites or precise point detection, instruments like the compact and precise VSCAN M cable and metal detector are valuable additions to the toolkit.

Can the RD7200 differentiate between multiple utilities running parallel in the same trench?

Yes, the RD7200 employs advanced filtering algorithms and frequency selection, enabling users to reliably identify and trace individual utility lines even when several run parallel in congested environments.
