vLoc3-Lite Pipeline & Cable Locator
Technical Datasheet

Overview

A compact locator developed to locate buried utilities with confidence. Distortion of the received signal is indicated instantly in colour, several utility lines can be measured precisely even in congested ground, and every reading is captured with a single key. The vLoc3-Lite integrates surveying and geophysics in one workflow with automatic data transfer — strong anti-interference performance, precise positioning and large detection depth.

  • Interference signal distortion warning as standard
  • Precise locating in congested utility corridors
  • One-key measurement of all readings
  • Fully automatic self-test and calibration
  • Preferred choice for PE pipe path tracing
