CRT-Cable Route Tracer

Cable Route Tracer

The Cable Route Tracer (CRT) is a vital tool for pinpointing faults in underground power and telecom cable networks. This sophisticated audio frequency system is built to handle a range of important tasks, such as tracing the routes of metallic cables, measuring their depth, tracking live loaded cables, and conducting ground surveys of underground utilities.

  • Route tracing of buried underground any metallic cables upto 15 km
  • LCD Bar-graph on Audio frequency receiver unit for precise indication of cable route tracing.
  • Route tracing of underground live cables with passive frequency and inductive coupling.
  • Depth Measurement up to 5m with direct measurement.
  • Peak and null reception methods for route tracing of cables.
  • Pin-pointing of contact nature faults.
