Portable instrument used for detecting the electromagnetic field emitted by a faulted or energized submarine cable. It is typically used on vessels during electroding operations to trace and locate subsea cables.
Key features:
Detects low-frequency signals (4 Hz to 40 Hz) generated by an electroding transmitter
High-sensitivity amplifier with analogue meter for signal strength indication
Built-in oscillator for test and calibration
IP65-rated portable enclosure, suitable for harsh marine environments
Operates on internal rechargeable battery or external power source
Digital timer and event marker for accurate signal logging and coordination
Typically effective at cable detection down to 180 meters water depth
