Cable Detector with marking hole / detects metal, wooden beams and power lines / audible and visual alarm / Colour LED display
Our Cable Detector enables the precise detection and localisation of power lines, wooden beams, metals and other objects such as water-filled plastic pipes in walls, floors and ceilings. Thanks to its versatility, it can be used on various surfaces such as wood, wallpaper, plaster, acoustic walls and painted walls.
The device is equipped with a 1.9-inch colour LCD display that provides a clear visual representation of the scan results. A signalling system consisting of coloured LEDs, acoustic cues and directional arrows quickly provides precise information about the proximity and position of the detected object. The LED system indicates green for no obstacles, yellow for nearby objects and red for an obstacle directly under the scanner. The Cable Detector has three detection modes: the metal detection mode for identifying metal objects, the wood detection mode for localising wooden beams and the power mode for detecting live wires. In the metal and power line modes, the device displays the signal strength as a percentage. In wood detection mode, the scanner recognises both the exact centre and the edges of wooden beams, allowing their position and size to be precisely determined.
To further improve the accuracy, the sensitivity can be adjusted in three stages so that the detection can be optimally adapted to the respective conditions. An integrated marking hole makes it possible to mark the drilling site immediately after detection. The Cable Detector also offers automatic calibration, which can be performed on any wall surface. The menu is available in five languages: Russian, English, Portuguese, Japanese as well as Chinese. The automatic switch-off is adjustable and can vary between 5 and 15 minutes or be deactivated completely, depending on requirements. The acoustic signal can also be switched off if required. For reliable and wireless use, the device is equipped with a powerful lithium-ion battery that can be charged quickly and easily via a USB-C port.
With this powerful and user-friendly Cable Detector, obstacles can be reliably detected and construction and renovation work can be carried out safely and efficiently.
