The MXL4 Precision Locator represents a significant advance in cable detecting and tracing capabilities. Innovative new features have been introduced enabling the MXL4 Locator and MXT4 Transmitter to provide high-end precision performance and a far more flexible approach to pipe and cable location.
The MXL4 Multi Frequency Locator is available in two model types:
- MXL4-D Precision Locator
The C.Scope MXL4-D is a high performance digital multi-frequency Precision Pipe & Cable Locator with in-built Data Logging. - MXL4-DBG Precision Locator
The C.Scope MXL4-DBG is a high performance digital multi-frequency Precision Pipe & Cable Locator with in-built Data Logging, Bluetooth™ connectivity and GPS tracking.
Both these products are designed for use with an MXT4 Multi Frequency Transmitter.
