Easy Locator System

Easy Locator, the standard Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) system for utility locate professionals worldwide.

The Easy Locator system is priced well below other systems and virtually redefines GPR for everyday locators that need to find non-metallic utilities and perform surveys for unknown buried objects and utilities.

The system includes an easy user interface with almost complete automation of settings whereby the operator provides minimal input to begin collecting data. Portability is unmatched in both weight and ease of disassembly for transport between projects.

These all important features mirror those locate professionals are accustomed to using on standard pipe and cable locators.

The Easy Locator includes an integrated but modular control unit and monitor. The control unit is mounted directly to the antenna (transducer) of your choice and powered internally. It is compatible with two antennas "Mid" or "Shallow" to cover most utility locate situations.

AUSTRALIAN APPLICATIONS

In Australia the Easy Locator is mainly used for the location of subsurface services. Unlike standard locating tools such as the Radio Detection 4000/7000, the Easy Locator does not depend on the ability of the utility to conduct an electric signal or current. This makes it extremely powerful for locating PVC water mains, gas and asbestos pipes. In addition to this the Easy Locator will also locate concrete sewer and storm water pipes.

In Australia the unit is also used for detecting post-tension cables in concrete slabs. However, the CX11 Concrete Scanner provides a higher level of confidence in those occasion.

Easy Locator is typically used for:

  • Detection of cables and pipes
  • Detection of pvc-pipes
  • Detection of underground storage tanks

EASY LOCATOR BENEFITS:

  • The robust system is priced well below other system on the market
  • Easy to use, no radar expertise required. Intuitive push-turn knob
  • Lightweight and rugged design
  • probably the best screen you'll find on any field instrument and excellent for the extremely strong Australian sun. You'll almost NEVER struggle to see your result on this screen.

The detachable control unit automatically detects the selected antenna and defaults to the appropriate data collection settings. Simply remove the handles with the monitor attached and collect data with either antenna.

Adjustable height of the wheels in combination with the option to pull the Easy Locator backwards improves access to rough terrain and loose soils such as sand. You can also configure your Easy Locator with the option Rough Terrain, see options below.
