3M 2573E

The 3M™ Dynatel™ Pipe/Cable Locators 2550 Series and 3M™ Dynatel™ Cable/Pipe/ Fault Locators 2573 Series are designed with all of the functionality of previous Dynatel models plus the availability of 6 active locating frequencies and trace view locating mode, while the iD versions have the enhanced capability to read and write user information into the 3M iD markers. Information such as a pre-programmed identification number, facility data, application type, placement date and other details can all be read, stored and downloaded to your PC for enhanced resource management with this revolutionary equipment. 

The Dynatel 2550-iD Pipe/Cable Locators and Dynatel 2573-iD Cable/Pipe/Fault Locators will also search for two different types of utility markers simultaneously. When used in conjunction with a hand-held GPS device, the ability to transmit path and marker coordinates multiplies the potential to the mapping industry. This equipment provides a simple system for mapping utility information directly into CAD and GIS systems. 

The 2550/2573 Series transmitters are 12 watt units. They provide .5 watts, 3 watts and 12 watts of output power. 12 watts is attained by utilizing the Cigarette Lighter Adapter or External Rechargeable Battery.

• Six active trace frequencies which can be used individually or simultaneously to providing a solution for virtually all challenging applications encountered in the field. The receiver incorporates passive power and auxiliary frequencies that do not require the use of the transmitter.
• Trace view mapping interface that provides an intuitive mapping display showing the utility path combined with a precision peak antenna based antenna array to provide the utmost confidence in utility location.
• Five modes of operation - trace view, directional peak, directional null, special peak and induction peak - for accurate locates, even in congested areas.
• Directional mode utilizes all-peak antenna design for improved left/right guidance and accurate locates in challenging conditions.
• Compatibility with select GPS/GIS field mapping instruments for real time mapping of electronic markers or pipe and cable facilities
