Characteristics
Improved LKN-1000 transmitter delivers significantly higher power than previous model, which allows to:
- Tracking underground services over a, longer distances,
- Improve service detection in areas of high signal interference,
- Improve depth estimation.
Other benefits of the new transmitter:
- four adjustable output levels with maximum output level, of 1 W,
- durable waterproof design environmental protection rating of IP65,
- smaller and lighter designed to work in harsh conditions,
- choice of 3 tracing signals, 8 kHz or 33 kHz, in conductive mode 8 kHz and 33 kHz at the same time,
- clear visual and visual signals for easier operation,
- built-in test function – allowing operators to test the hardware and software functionality of the LKN-1000 before use,
- externally located control buttons, ensure a waterproof.
Operating modes
- Passive, with 50 Hz or 60 Hz – enables to locate live wires and cables (POWER).
- Passive RADIO (15-30 kHz) – enables a quick, non-selective locating operation for an underground structure (metallic installations).
- Active (with transmitter) (8 kHz and 33 kHz), enables:
- a locating operation using the inductive mode (all one has to do is to place the transmitter over the object traced),
- a locating operation through connecting the transmitter directly to an object that is not live,
- a locating operation using transmission clamps (it is necessary to close the clamps over the object tested),
- a locating operation using a transmission wire or transmission probes (enables to locate non-metallic objects),
- a locating operation sing a separating adapter (connecting the transmitter LKN-1000 directly to a 230 V socket)
