Radiodetection Cat4+ Kit with Genny4 & Bag
Kit includes: RD Cat4+ Cable Locator, Genny4 and Bag.
Radiodetection C.A.T4+ (with Strike Alert & Depth)
The Radiodetection CAT4+ is the depth model of the range which when used with a Genny4 will provide accurate depth readings.
Using the latest digital technology the unit is simple to operate and designed to improve both survey speed and accuracy.
As safety critical tools the CAT4 and GENNY4 range of Cable Locator and Cable Avoidance Tools offer several features designed to support safe working and help to drive utility strike rates down.
DESCRIPTION
Detect more, detect faster
The new CAT4 digital platform delivers highly refined locate capabilities, specifically designed to help the operator find more buried utilities. The CAT4 Avoidance Mode™ lets the operator check an intended excavation area for Power, Radio and Genny signals, and pinpoint located utilities in a single scan.
Features such as the bargraph ‘tidemark’ enable an operator to quickly spot a peak response and zero-in on a buried conductor.
Dig more safely
Radiodetection’s optional StrikeAlert™, SWING™ Rate detector and Service Due date warning have been improved to reduce the number of shallow cable strikes and guide users towards better and safer working practices.
Optional data acquisition capabilities also allow for Plant Supervisors to administer their fleet more safely and effectively by providing comprehensive logs of CAT4 usage for analysis and personnel development.
The CAT4 is a safety-critical precision instrument with an optional 30-day countdown to the Service Due date, CALSafe™ and innovative eCert™ on-line system calibration validation capabilities are designed to reinforce company and recommended service policies.
Reduce the number of strikes
Small Cable Locate - Dual-frequency locate
Simultaneous dual frequency and simple locating methods assist CAT4 and Genny4 users to locate Small Diameter cable such as telecom twisted pairs, CATV feeds, spurs and drop-offs which have historically been hard to find and are a common strike risk
Dynamic Overload Protection
Radiodetection’s unique digital signal processing capabilities equips the CAT4 with the ability to reject electrical interference.
Dynamic Overload Protection gives C.A.T4 series products the ability to continue operating in electrically challenging areas, such as near substations and under power cables, where other locators’ detection circuitry may be overloaded and no longer function.
Avoidance Mode™
Sweep an area using Power, Radio and Genny signals simultaneously, saving time. CAT4 lets operators control the sensitivity of each mode/signal, enabling buried utilities to be pinpointed in a single pass, while Real Sound provides audio feedback derived directly from the utility located, easing identification to maximise speed whilst maintaining safety.
Genny4 Signal Boost
The Genny4 offers, alongside its standard power mode, a Signal Boost feature which increases the output signal by up to 10 times allowing you to locate over extra distance and depth.
High Visibility Display with Back-light
The CAT4’s high visibility display helps to minimise the possibility of misreading critical information from the unit. The high contrast and automatic back-light illumination provide optimum visibility in all light conditions.
FEATURES
StrikeAlert™ - Optional
Minimise the risk of hitting a shallow cable with the optional StrikeAlert™ which has been enhanced and optimised to reduce the instances of false warnings.
Datalogging - Optional
The eCAT4 and gCAT4 series products can store upto 2 year’s worth of the key measurements and modes of operation.
gCAT4 units are equipped with an internal GPS/GNSS receiver providing positional data logged every second into the CAT4 internal memory and showing where the operator was working. These gCAT4 data logs can be exported as CSV, XLM or KML files that can be imported into map services like Google Maps® or Google Earth®.
C.A.T Manager™ can be used to export log files to enable detailed data usage analysis offering multiple benefits such as identifying training and development needs, and providing independent historical records of the instrument’s use.
Backed-up data on a PC gives virtually unlimited record keeping for the life of the product.
Dynamic Overload Protection
Radiodetection’s unique digital signal processing capabilities equips the CAT4 with the ability to reject electrical interference. Dynamic Overload Protection gives CAT4 series products the ability to continue operating in electrically challenging areas, such as near substations and under power cables, where other locators’ detection circuitry may be overloaded and no longer function.
Avoidance Mode™
Sweep an area of Power, Radio and Genny signals simultaneously, saving time. CAT4 lets operators control the sensitivity of each mode/signal, enabling buried utilities to be pinpointed in a single pass, while Real Sound provides audio feedback derived directly from the utility located, easing identification to maximise speed whilst maintaining safety.
SWING™
Radiodetection CAT's are designed to respond exceptionally fast to even the smallest detectable underground signals. Radiodetection's research into underground signal detection has shown that the ability of an operator to identify these buried utilities is directly affected by careless working practices such as excessive or rapid swinging.
To further reduce utility strike risks, eCAT4 units are equipped with sensors to detect such incorrect usage and warn the operator with an alert that is also stored in the data log.
Service Due indicator and CALSafe™ - optional
Minimise the risk of having to delay a survey because a CAT4’s calibration has expired. eCAT4 series products provide a 30 days countdown warning to the expiry of the calibration certificate.
The optional CALSafe can be set to prevent the unit from operating outside the calibration period, ensuring compliance with company policies – and the interval required between services can be customised within a 1 year period using the C.A.T Manager software.
Network Rail use
The CAT4 and Genny4, and their accessories, are accepted for use on the UK’s national rail infrastructure, managed by Network Rail - Acceptance Certificate No: PA05/05450
Genny4 Signal Generator
The Radiodetection Genny4 provides a simultaneous dual-frequency output signal which alongside the familiar 33 kHz locate signal, transmits a second frequency designed to facilitate the location of small diameter cables.
As safety critical tools the CAT4 and GENNY4 range of Cable Locator and Cable Avoidance Tools offer a number of features designed to support safe working and help to drive utility strike rates down.
Description
The new Genny4, with a new integrated logic design, provides a class-first simultaneous dual-frequency signal output design. Alongside the familiar 33kHz locate signal for general purpose locates, the Genny4 transmits a second frequency designed to facilitate location of small diameter cables such as telecoms and street lighting, including spurs. For tricky locates, the new power boost function enables the locate signal to travel further and deeper, and couple onto utilities more easily.
Small Cable Locating
Simultaneous dual frequency and simple, intuitive, locating methods assist CAT4 and Genny4 users to locate Small Diameter cables such as telecom twisted pairs, CATV feeds, spurs and drop-offs which have historically been hard to find and a common strike risk.
Genny4 signal boost
Alongside its familiar standard power mode, Genny4 provides a Signal Boost feature which increases the output signal by up to a factor of 10, enabling operators to locate utilities deeper and over greater distances.
