Pipe and Cable locators

Cable and Pipe lasers are essential to have on a construction sight. Health and Safety authorities all over the world advise that before undertaking any kind of excavation, operators should first scan an area with a Cable Avoidance Tool. Even with this advice, site workers are still injured and killed due to inadvertently striking buried cables. SubSurface Instruments makes an incredible Pipe and Cable Locator that can avoid these injuries called the PL-2000 Series. With the PL-2000 Series, operators can locate, trace and mark underground services quickly, precisely and reliably prior to excavation.
The PL-2000 Series Pipe and Cable Locator detects power signals and charges. It can locate power signals radiated by energized cables or it can trace signals originating from distant radio transmitters. These radio signals penetrate the ground and are reradiated by buried metallic cables and pipes. It can detect anything that has a signal or charge such as electrical power cables, cable lines, telephone lines, power lines, water lines, tracer lines and anything that had a metallic conductor.
The PL-2000 Series Cable and Pipe Locator offers a new approach in high power, low frequency locating. With three active frequencies (at a nominal 512 Hz, 8kHz, and 27 kHz), two passive frequencies (at the 50/60 cycle flowing AC current, and Radio in the 14 kHz - 25 kHz), four modes of operation, and both inductive and direct connection capabilities, the PL-2000 is powerful and versatile, but still surprisingly easy to use and cost effective.
The four different operating modes that the lightweight, balanced receiver offers are Peak, Null, Dist, and Sonde. Peak mode is for the most accurate locates and for depth measurement. Null mode is for fast, easy tracking. Dist mode is for even longer distances and Sonde mode is for locating sewer Sondes and measuring their depths. The PL-2000 Series is designed to help avoid damage to underground services during excavation, injuries to on site workers, as well as make the job easier and simpler for the personnel.

The difference Between the Spectra Precision HV and the LL

Sometimes when I go onto my company’s website my head spins from looking at all the lasers we have posted on it. I have a hard time differentiating between which laser does what and where, and what the laser limits are or even its durability. So I decided that I would take two very popular Spectra Laser series and see if I can explain the difference between the two clearly.
Spectra Precision HV Horizontal and Vertical Laser
The automatic, self-leveling Spectra HV Series Laser is a professional and economical tool with exceptional versatility and visibility. The HV Series laser is capable of handling a wide variety of horizontal, vertical and plumb applications. The HV Series are advanced lasers with exceptional accuracy and durability for general construction projects.

The NEW Leica D8 IS The most versatile laser distance meter in the world!

If you were impressed by the Leica Disto D5 Handheld Distance Measurer, then you will be astounded by the Leica Disto D8! Think of everything you ever wanted a Distance Handheld Measurer to be and to have... then check out the Leica Disto D8 and be prepared to be amazed at what it can accomplish!

Whether you have to accurately layout a construction site, gather height and angle data, calculate horizontal distances, or measure roof slopes and faced areas, the Leica Disto D8 can help you determine all that quickly and safely.

Equipped with a high resolution 2.4” color display, a digital point finder, Bluetooth technology, and a 360 degree tilt sensor, the Leica Disto D8 opens up completely new measuring possibilities. You can quickly and efficiently determine horizontal distances over the top of obstacles, or the height of a tree, even though it has no reflective points. Roof slopes and facade areas can be safely and rapidly measured from the ground. The Leica Disto D8 is even capable of simple levelling tasks, with out the assistance of a second person.

Measurement results can be transferred wirelessly and without errors from the Leica Disto D8 to pocket-PCs or PCs using the integral Bluetooth technology, where they can be further processed in Excel, AutoCAD or other software.

The Leica Disto D8’s digital Point finder with 4x zoom allows you to point quickly and easily at far off objects, in glaring sunlight too. Even when the laser dot is no longer visible to the naked eye, the target can be clearly seen on the 2.4“ high resolution color display, allowing accurate distance measurements to be made, even over great distances.

You can also use the Leica Disto D8 to calculate Altitude Profiles. All you need to do is measure a known reference mark with the device and then measure from each of the relevant altitude differences. When the measuring points have all been recorded in one direction you can then determine a cross-country profile with the measured horizontal distance and the height difference.

The Leica Disto D8 also has a stake out function. By entering two different distances (A and B) into the Leica Disto D8, they can be used to mark off defined measured lengths. At each measured length, the display shows the current marking distance and a direction arrow. Additionally, an alarm signal starts to ring at a distance of 4 inch from the next stake out point
Despite its wealth of functions, the Leica DISTO™ D8 is simple to operate and extremely handy; it can easily fit into any pocket. Its robust design with IP 54 protection keeps out dust and splash-water.item

PLANIX EX Digitizing Coordinate Planimeter

Planimeters are excellent tools to use when you measure irregular shaped areas on plans or drawings. They eliminate the need for grids, charts, or calculations done by hand. Planimeters are used by many in Surveying, Civil Engineering, Cartography, Architecture, Medicine, Clothing Industry, Boat and Ship Design, Office, Store and Plant Planning, and Biology.

Most people I know use the older model Planimeters, known as Mechanical Planimeters. These Mechanical Planimeters work well, work accurately and are usually efficient enough for the job. The only problem is that they are a little bulky and they aren’t so easy to use.

There is another solution! The Planix Ex is a Digitized Planimeter that works quickly, has a smoother operation, is built to last, and allows you measure areas, calculate lengths, coordinates, radii and angles. It also permits you to measure in metric units, inches, feet, yards and acres, as well as other user defined units.

The Planix Ex also has two modes to help with more accurate measurements; the Point mode and the Stream mode. The Point mode allows the user obtain areas and lengths of diagrams with straight lines easily and quickly while the Stream mode should be used for tracing curves on curved lines.

The Planix EX is so easy to use! All you need to do is roll it over the area you would like to calculate and it will give you a digital readout! As simple as that! It also has an automatic closing function, which automatically finishes the measurement when the trace point is returned to the starting point, making measuring easier.
