Schonstedt GA-92XTd Metered Magnetic Locator

GA-92XTd Key Features:

• Portable and Easy-to-Use
• Extends for great accuracy; retracts for easy carrying and storage
• Fingertip control of volume and sensitivity
• Quick-change battery compartment

The Schonstedt GA-92XTd magnetic locator is a metered locator. For those who prioritize portability and ease of use, the GA-92XTd is the right tool. The device is designed for reliability and is able to detect ferrous objects up to 16 feet underground with great accuracy. Retractable for convenient handling and safe keeping. True one-handed is enabled by fingertip control of volume and controls. Both visual feedback and audio target responses are available on this device with single handed control. The audio response of the GA 92XTd model is designed so that the frequency of the tone increases as the signal strength increases. Therefore, the audio output frequency is higher than the idling frequency (~ 30 Hz) that exists when the signal strength is approximately zero. Also, the larger signal strength causes the bar graph display to peak either positively or negatively. It is possible to use the GA-92XTd in either open or closed position, as well as any position in between.

This Schonstedt locator includes an extended mode for great accuracy and retracts for easy carrying of the device. With this, you will be able to enjoy both precision and performance, as well as an effortless and simple single handed control. Gradient field intensity (signal strength) determines the frequency of the Audio output signal from pipe and other iron objects. The Audio frequency range is 30 to 4000 Hz. An expanding bar-graph indicates the output signal polarity (positive or negative) and strength. The digital readout shows gradient field intensity in milligauss (mG). The range is 0 to 500 mG.

This model contains the patented HeliFlux® sensors for optimal performance. It will provide a response to iron and steel objects only as it is a magnetic locator. You can easily locate pipe joints, iron pipes, manhole covers and other ferrous metal objects with pinpoint accuracy. The device is powered by 9v alkaline battery. The design provides easy access battery removal and replacement if you find that you only have intermittent usage needs. You can use alkaline or lithium batteries in this GA 92xtd magnetic locator. This device is designed with ruggedness first of mind and contains the latest in product innovation that users have come to expect from Schonstedt.
