Cable Detection Launch Latest Additions To Product Range

Cable Detection are pleased to announce that the latest additions to our product range, the EZiSYSTEM xf series Locators and Transmitters, are now Network Rail approved meaning all our products can now be used on and around the rail infrastructure.

With Cable Detections' state of the art xf locators and transmitters, users can detect buried utilities faster and more accurately than ever before. The xf range has been specifically designed with long distance tracing in mind. The ability to trace low transmitter frequencies provides a greater tracing range making locating underground utilities easier than ever before.

We are particularly proud that our EZiTEX t300 (3 watt) Signal Transmitter has been awarded the approval. The first, and only high powered transmitter in the UK market to have been recognised for its safety conformity, will allow users to trace services over a greater distance, and improve on detection in areas of high signal interference."
