The Pipehorn 800 Series pipe and cable locators come in both single (800-H) and dual (800-HL) frequency options.
The 800-H has superior high frequency (480 kHz) performance. It is the best tool in the industry when direct connection is not possible, and on the toughest conductors: coated iron pipes with insulated joints, unenergized power (street/parking lot lights), worn-out tracer tape & wire, short side services & stub-outs, concentric neutrals, and fiber.
The 800-HL MD840 is a state-of-the-art, dual-frequency, pipe and cable locating system designed for the professional with complex locating jobs. It is a carefully engineered, precision instrument designed to provide simultaneous conductive transmission of both high (480 kHz) and low (9 kHz) frequencies for congested areas and long distance locates.
