Locating Sonde for Deep Lying Sewers, 8 and 33 kHz, 55 mm, 12 m Depth - Leica Maxi Sonde 8/33

Trunk sewers and deep drains are the point at which smaller sondes reach their depth limit and the surface signal becomes unreliable. The Maxi Sonde 8/33 uses a larger body and three AA cells and is therefore detected down to 12 m. Two selectable transmit frequencies of 8 kHz and 33 kHz keep the signal clean even in electrically noisy surroundings.

Benefits

• 12 m depth range: reaches trunk sewers and deeply laid drains where sondes limited to 5 m can no longer be found reliably.
• Dual frequency 8 and 33 kHz: 8 kHz for quiet long reach locating and 33 kHz for coupling in tighter conditions, without a second sonde.
• Three AA alkaline cells: the larger energy reserve supports the higher output level and replacements are available anywhere.
• 55 mm diameter: designed for sewers and collectors of larger bore where a sturdy body pays off.
• M10 male thread with adapter: drain rods, boring tools and inspection cameras connect in either thread direction.

Applications

Locating deep foul and storm sewers, surveying routes under paved areas and roads, pinpointing camera positions in large bores, tracking boring heads during directional drilling, locating in electrically noisy areas using the 8 kHz frequency.

Compatibility and scope of delivery

The manufacturer specifies the sonde for use with DD locators in sonde mode, and the instrument has to support the selected frequency. Supplied are the sonde with the batteries fitted and the additional female thread adapter.
