Subsite UtiliGuard 2 Receiver Advanced Plus Cable Pipe Locators

The Subsite UtiliGuard 2 Receiver Advanced Plus Cable and Pipe Locator is a sophisticated tool designed to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of locating underground utilities. Building upon the capabilities of the original UtiliGuard, this advanced model incorporates several key features aimed at improving performance and operational oversight.

Key Features:

1. Integrated Data Capture and GPS Positioning: The UtiliGuard 2 automatically captures real-time data and utilizes GPS positioning to provide comprehensive records of locator activities. This functionality enables performance tracking, compliance verification with standard operating procedures, and the development of strategies to reduce utility strikes and boost productivity across multiple crews.  

2. High-Contrast LCD Display: Equipped with a high-contrast LCD, the device ensures clear visibility in all lighting conditions, including direct sunlight, facilitating accurate readings and reducing the likelihood of errors.  

3. Remote Transmitter Control: Operators can remotely adjust the transmitter's settings directly from the receiver, streamlining the locating process and minimizing the need for manual interventions.  

4. Wireless Communication: The inclusion of wireless technology simplifies communication and data transfer between devices, enhancing coordination and efficiency on the job site.  

5. Direction Enabled: The locator provides the direction of the current, aiding in the precise identification of target lines and reducing the chances of tracing incorrect utilities.  

6. Ambient Interference Measurement (AIM) Technology: This feature scans the surrounding area for noise and recommends optimal frequencies, ensuring faster and more accurate locates even in challenging environments.  

7. Dual Utility Connection: The transmitter's ability to connect to two utilities simultaneously reduces the time required to locate multiple services, thereby increasing operational efficiency.  

8. Enhanced Transmitter Power: With a 12-watt transmitter, the UtiliGuard 2 can drive signals further down large, direct-buried utilities, improving the locator's range and effectiveness.  

9. User-Friendly Interface: The device features a six-button, intuitive operator interface that is easy to learn and use, supporting multiple languages to accommodate diverse user groups.  

10. Superior Battery Life: The transmitter offers up to 100 hours of battery life, while the receiver provides 20 hours of continuous use and 50 hours of intermittent use, ensuring extended operation without frequent recharging.  

11. Robust Design: Boasting an industry-best IP65 rating, the UtiliGuard 2 delivers excellent performance in dusty, dirty, or wet job site conditions, ensuring durability and reliability.  

12. Customizable Frequencies: Users can choose from 100 standard frequencies via user-configurable software, allowing for flexibility to adapt to various locating scenarios.
