-501
Induction Clamp-
|
| The "GO-FER" Detectron
501 clamp was designed to accompany the 505 Pipe & Cable locator for
superior tracing and locating abilities. Fully capable of identifying isolated
pipes and cables in complex underground systems. The 501 gives utility
users a more accurate means of location, as well as advantages in
speed and convenience. The 501 Induction Clamp induces a current into the
conductor using a strong electromagnetic field, without the possibility
of air coupling into parallel lines. This allows for greater tracing distances.

| A. Induction
Clamp
used in all tracing methods where conductors are exposed in at
least one plave and the terminated end is an open circuit. |
| B. Induction
Clamp shown coupled to a terminating end of a trace object, transmitter
clamp requires a grounded conductor for a proper current flow throughout the ground. |
| C. Induction
clamp shown, must be coupled to a conductor in between the ground and
the point where the conductor enters the ground. |
| D. Induction
clamp shown coupled in the wrong place causing the trace signal to return
to the ground. |
| E. Induction
clamp shown coupled around a conductor which feeds in two directions
creating a current flow to allow tracing in BOTH directions. |
| F. Induction
clamp shown coupled to a conductor with laterals, feeding the full trace
signal up to the junction point, (1) which then divides the signal strength into each branch (2). |
