980T TRANSMITTERLOCATING EQUIPMENT

Today's jobsites demand versatility. That's why we designed the 980T dual-purpose electronic transmitter to be as flexible as you are. The 980T can transmit signals to any Ditch Witch pipe and cable locator or fault locator equally well and on-demand. It's smart, too, automatically switching from pipe and cable transmitting to fault transmitting with the change of a cable—so you can plug and play, and get on with the job.

KEY FEATURES,

980T TRANSMITTER

Equipped with automatic mode-sensing capability, the 980T detects the type of cable that is plugged in and automatically transmits the appropriate signal to the fault or line locator.
The 980T can transmit to a line locator via direct line connection, induction clamp or induced broadcast signals.

REQUEST MORE INFO

DC output in fault-locating mode is capable of breaking through most dielectric buildup present on faulted cables.
Simultaneous 8 and 29 kHz transmission to a line locator makes an alternate signal available if one is hard to detect, while higher frequencies locate metallic lines with insulators that weaken or block low frequencies.

Rugged case and sealed keypad withstand tough weather conditions and provide superior moisture resistance.
Fault-locating mode includes a pulse rate of three to four seconds and an LCD display of pulse; fault impedance indicator gives an approximate value to the fault.
