All of our leak detectors are intuitive to use and easy to setup. The entire system is built around the idea that anyone can use them.
Leak detectors identify water leaks by picking up acoustic signals created by escaping water. Magnetic locators detect the magnetic field of buried ferrous objects such as iron pipes, steel manhole covers, survey markers, and boundary pins. These tools serve different purposes and are used together in many underground locating jobs.
Pipe and cable locators help identify the path and depth of buried utilities like power lines, telecom cables, gas lines, and water pipes. They prevent accidental strikes during excavation and make it easier to map underground infrastructure.
No. Magnetic locators work only with ferrous metals such as iron and steel. For PVC, HDPE, copper, and fiber-optic lines, a pipe and cable locator is required.
For plastic pipes, an acoustic leak detector is recommended. These units detect the sound created by water escaping through cracks or joints, even when the pipe itself cannot be detected magnetically.
Yes. Both leak detectors and magnetic locators can function through pavement, roadways, concrete slabs, and sidewalks. Performance depends on target depth and noise conditions.
Many pipe and cable locators and leak detection tools can be paired with GPS and GIS systems using Bluetooth or data logging. This allows technicians to map utility locations for asset management and record keeping.
Key features include depth sensitivity, digital readout, noise filtering, battery life, and the ability to detect objects in challenging environments such as snow, water, or heavy soil.
