Industrial-grade display, for outdoor usage

RD8200 locators and transmitters use a transflective low-power LCD technology that uses ambient light to improve screen readability in direct sunlight and extend battery life.

TruDepth™ and current readout, for extra assurance

Radiodetection’s TruDepth displays precise depth and current measurements, only when the RD8200 is correctly oriented above the target. Measurement consistency gives high confidence that the correct line is being followed.

High-performance audio and vibration alerts, for noisy environments

The RD8200 waterproof speaker housing has been tuned to provide optimum resonance for your choice of high or low-frequency tones.
5 power output audio levels and vibration alerts, assist technicians working in challenging situations.

The RD8200 range of locators and transmitters simplifies the task of distinguishing and tracing utilities in congested networks, near substations, or high-voltage lines.

Current Direction, track the right line

Identify your target amongst a number of parallel utilities by applying a specialized CD signal from a Tx-10 transmitter. CD arrows displayed on the locator confirm you are tracing your target line.

Power Filters™ works where other locators won't!

When a transmitter can’t be connected, tracing individual power lines through dense networks can be a real challenge. Conflicting or powerful signals confuse or combine to create a wash of signals.

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. 

Dynamic Overload Protection rejects unwanted interference

Automatically filters out interference, enabling use in electrically noisy environments such as near substations or overhead power lines.

Swing Warning System drives correct usage

Locators must be kept perpendicular to the ground for best accuracy. RD8200 locators have a built-in gyroscopic measurement system that alerts the user of excessive swing, driving correct usage.

Usage-logging with GPS positioning, understand how your technicians operate

The RD8200G locator automatically stores all locate parameters providing a comprehensive picture of field operations.

Supervisors or health and safety personnel can analyze the data to assess usage patterns in order to ensure adherence to best-practice and to identify training needs before poor work habits develop.

The information can also be shared with partners or clients to evidence task completion or compliance with service requirements.

Usage data can be exported in multiple file formats – for example, KML for Google Maps to confirm where and when work was performed.

Vibration feedback reduces the chance of missed warnings

The RD8200 locator handle vibrates when alerts activate, leaving the operator to concentrate on the job at hand.
