Operating Features
Selecting the right frequency is crucial for accurately locating buried utilities. Factors like depth, size, material, and nearby congestion influence the best choice. Large-diameter, direct-buried pipes with bell housings and gaskets (such as water and gas lines) require higher frequencies, while smaller, well-grounded pipes or long-distance conduit installations perform better with lower frequencies.
