Locator

A sonde locator, also known as a pipe locator or underground locator, is a device used to locate and track the position of a sonde or transmitter that is attached to a pipe or cable. It is commonly used in construction, utility locating, and plumbing applications.

Introduction to Sonde Locators

Sonde locators are essential tools used to locate underground pipes, cables, and other utility lines. They work in conjunction with a sonde or transmitter, which is attached to a pipe or cable and emits a signal that can be detected and tracked by the locator. Sonde locators are used to precisely determine the location and depth of buried infrastructure.

How Sonde Locators Work?

A sonde locator consists of a receiver unit and a display or indicator that provides real-time information about the location of the sonde. The locator detects and interprets the signal emitted by the sonde, allowing the user to trace the path of the pipe or cable.
