Comtest's new cable locator

July 2011 Enclosures, Cabling & Connectors

Comtest has introduced the Amprobe AT-2032E cable locator which covers all application areas (live or de-energised), obviating the need for additional devices.

The AT-2032E locates cables in walls, interruptions and short circuits in cables, fuses and assignments to circuits, accidentally concealed sockets and distribution boxes, interruptions and short circuits in unshielded under floor heating as well as the tracing of metallic water and heating pipes. It accurately locates cables by displaying a specified letter on the receiver.

The system is shipped in a set consisting of transmitter and receiver in a robust, shock-proof case. A clear, easy to follow instruction manual with application examples is included as well as additional transmitters for extension purposes or to distinguish between multiple signals.

The AT-2032E has an LED bar display for intensity and a 7-segment display on the receiver for numbers and letters that indicate the transmitter code. It is rated CATll/250V and has safety certificates EN 61010-1/EC 61010.
