Cloud service (optional) : Built on the Android platform (compatible with HarmonyOS), it uses the powerful computing performance and network communication capabilities of mobile phones to interact with the server in real time, enabling functions such as engineering measurement, task management, data management, data viewing, test report generation, data import, data export, and operation video.

Remote control function : The transmitter connects to the network via an external 4G network card. Users can remotely control the transmitter's signal output, changing the transmission frequency and power via a mobile app. This facilitates measurement and saves operation time.

Surveying App (Optional) : This is a self-developed app that integrates comprehensive information management functions such as recording, managing, and generating reports for measurement data. It is used in conjunction with a cable comprehensive detector to achieve satellite positioning surveying capabilities. The app can manage tasks and generate reports for engineers' pipeline inspection missions, featuring a user-friendly engineering wizard function and ease of use. It generates task reports with one click, including information such as length, depth, measurement frequency, measurement current, and location information, greatly improving the work efficiency of buried pipeline inspection personnel.

Cable Identification: Designed to solve the technical problems of cable identification for power cable engineers and cable workers. It can identify live cables and de-energized cables. Users can accurately identify a target cable from multiple cables using the instrument, avoiding serious accidents caused by accidentally cutting live cables. During cable identification, 10 cables can be pre-marked at the transmitting end before being identified at the remote receiving end, greatly saving the time of engineers traveling back and forth and improving work efficiency. Successful cable identification is marked with a √, and non-target cables are marked with an ×, enabling fast and automatic identification of target cables. This function is achieved through the cooperation of a signal transmitter, receiver, signal transmitting clamp, connecting test leads, and flexible clamps.

Signal transmitter : Used for pipeline path detection and cable identification. This device can apply identification signals to target cables through direct output, clamp coupling, induction, etc., with 12 different pulse signals available. The maximum signal output power is 15W, adjustable in 15 levels. This adapts to different application environments, making pipeline detection and cable identification more accurate and reliable. The instrument has a built-in high-power rechargeable lithium battery, automatic impedance matching, and fully automatic protection. The main unit features a 5.6-inch color capacitive touchscreen LCD display, showing real-time dynamic signal output status and battery usage.

Transmitter clamp : Suitable for clamp coupling method. The transmitter clamp couples the signal emitted by the transmitter to the target cable. The clamp jaw size is Φ150mm . The transmitter clamp is directional, and the transmitted signal flows in from the direction indicated by the arrow on the transmitter clamp.

Receiver : Used for pipeline path detection and cable identification signal reception. It features multiple built-in shielded 3D antennas, enabling effective identification of 12 different pulse-code current signals generated by the transmitter. It can also identify 50Hz and 60Hz power frequency signals. A 3.5- inch color LCD screen provides real-time dynamic display of 360° omnidirectional pipeline path indication, depth, current, and relative pipeline position .

A-frame (optional) : An A-shaped voltage signal sensor specifically designed for locating grounding faults in buried cables. The A-frame's two probes or probe discs accurately receive step voltage signals transmitted from a transmitter. After data analysis at the receiver, the grounding fault point can be precisely located. The probes or probe discs are independently interchangeable ; the probes are suitable for muddy surfaces, while the probe discs are suitable for concrete surfaces where direct insertion into the ground is not possible. The A-frame's lead wires are designed with aviation sockets, allowing connection to the receiver via aviation plug cables. It is easily detachable and compatible with an independently designed handle, enabling the A-frame to function independently for other purposes.

Flexible current clamp : Used for cable identification. This current clamp uses a Rockwell coil and has excellent transient tracking capability, enabling rapid identification of pulse-coded currents generated by the transmitter. It is suitable for thick cables or irregularly shaped conductors. Its jaws have an inner diameter of 200 mm, allowing for non-contact measurement without disconnecting the circuit under test, ensuring safety and speed.

Stethoscope: Used for cable identification. Similar in shape to a mouse, it quickly senses and identifies current signals in transmitters or cables. Its curved sensor design ensures a perfect fit against the cable surface. When used with the transmitter and receiver of this product, it can perform most of the functions of a flexible current clamp, and can replace it for cable identification in most situations. Simply place the stethoscope firmly against the cable being tested along its direction. Suitable for situations where it is inconvenient to use a flexible current clamp.

Special Note: When identifying de-energized cables, it is strictly forbidden to connect them to live cables. Live cable identification is only applicable to three-core armored cables. During identification, the transmitting clamp and receiving clamp must not be used interchangeably, and the direction of the input signal must be consistent.
