Super Cable Hound
A Super Cable Hound Locator consists of a separate, battery-powered transmitter and receiver units, together with a tone probe, ground rod, and connecting cables. All components are packaged in a compact, lightweight-carrying case designed to withstand rugged field use while being easy to handle and operate.
The transmitter, which is an integral part of the carrying case, is provided with two 15-foot leads to electrically place it between the ground rod and the cable shield or sheath under test. The operator can choose to transmit, power on, and low battery.
The transmitted signal is detected by a separate receiver and tone probe. The receiver is a sensitive solid state amplifier housed in a durable, high-impact plastic case with a built-in belt clip. The receiver is equipped with a low-battery LED and a 60 Hz filter to prevent AC induction. The tone probe, which is connected to the receiver by an insulated, two-wire cable, acts like a directional antenna to pick up the transmitted tone. The probe can be used while standing erect, eliminating to need to "duck walk" during a test. It is also provided with a 45 degree bubble level for fast, accurate depth determination.
The Super Cable Hound is backed by our one-year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
