The Radiodetection CAT4+ underground cable avoidance tool/service locator delivers highly refined locating capabilities, specifically designed to help operators 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 the operator to quickly spot a peak response and zero-in on a buried conductor.

The Genny4 provides simultaneous dual-frequency locate signal output. Alongside the familiar 33kHz locate signal for general purpose locates, the Genny4 transmits a second higher frequency designed to facilitate location of small-diameter cables such as telecoms and street lighting, including spurs. For tricky locates, the power boost function enables the locate signal to travel further and deeper, and couple onto utilities more easily. The supplied 100mm inductive clamp allows the operator to clamp over a service without interruption to the supply at any point along its path. The Genny4 can also work in wireless inductive mode, placing the transmitter on the ground over a cable and allowing wireless coupling of the signal onto the buried service.

The CAT4+ is supplied as a complete kit in a carry bag, comprising a Genny4 transmitter, a receiver, direct connection leads, earth stake and inductive signal clamp.

Dig More Safely

The Radiodetection CAT4 proprietary StrikeAlert™ warning alerts operators to shallow buried utilities. The CAT4 also guides users towards safer working practices through its Service Due date warning. Being a safety-critical precision instrument, the optional 30-day countdown to the Service Due date, CALSafe™ and the innovative eCert™ online calibration validation capabilities are designed to reinforce company and recommended service policies.

Features

• Multiple Operating Modes

Avoidance Mode: Rapid scanning and locating; simultaneously searches for power, radio and Genny signals.

Genny Mode: Detects signals transmitted by the Genny4, with on-demand depth estimation of buried services (direct coupling and inductive mode).

Power Mode: Detects electromagnetic fields generated by live cables.

Radio Mode: Detects long-range radio signals as they travel along buried cables or pipes.

• Small Cable Locate – Dual Frequency

Dual-frequency locating assists users to detect small-diameter cables such as telecom twisted pairs, CATV feeds, spurs and drop-offs, which are historically hard to find and present common strike risks.

• Dynamic Overload Protection

Radiodetection’s unique digital signal processing rejects electrical interference, allowing CAT4 to operate effectively in electrically challenging areas (e.g., near substations or power cables) where other locators may fail.

• Easy and Low-Cost Remote Calibration

With eCert™ technology, the CAT4 can be calibrated remotely at a fraction of the cost of traditional servicing. Using an internet connection, eCert™ assesses hardware and software performance via PC link, extending calibration validity without downtime. A calibration certificate can be printed or saved instantly, with full service backup also available.

• Avoidance Mode™ Efficiency

Sweep areas using Power, Radio and Genny signals simultaneously to save time. CAT4 enables sensitivity control for each mode, while Real Sound provides direct audio feedback from the utility located, maximising speed without compromising safety.

• Genny4 Signal Boost

In addition to standard power mode, the Genny4 offers a Signal Boost feature that increases output by up to 10 times, enabling extra depth and distance in difficult locates.

• High-Visibility Display with Backlight

CAT4’s high-contrast display with automatic backlight illumination ensures critical information is visible in all lighting conditions, reducing the risk of misreadings.

• Straightforward Operation

The CAT4 is a simple to use underground cable and services locator with features designed to make the operator's job as easy as possible. All CAT4's are reverse compatible with Genny3 accessories.
