Chauvin Arnoux LOCAT-N C.A 6681 Cable Locator

The Chauvin Arnoux LOCAT-N C.A 6681 Cable Locator is comprised of two elements, the C.A 6681E Transmitter and C.A 6681R Receiver. Together they can be used to perform an array of functions which can be utilised by electricians, plumbers, heating engineers and telecommunication specialists. Some of the tasks this product can aid an electrician in completing are:

• Locating and tracking lines and sockets
• Identifying the network voltages and searching  for circuit interruptions
• Identifying the fuses which correspond to the socket to which the transmitter has been connected
• Locating line interruptions
• Detecting the cause of short circuits
• Tracking buried circuits

A heating engineer and/or plumber may use this product to:

• Detect faults in under-floor heating
• Detect metal heating ducts
• Detect metal water pipes
• Locate copper and steel pipes
• Track plastic pipes
• Detect a pinched/ obstructed section in a non-metallic pipe

This product can be used by telecommunication specialists to:

• Locate cables
• Identify a pair in a strand

This product is also ideal for housing maintenance, renovation and improvement as it can be used on both current carrying and non-current carrying mains circuits.

Therefore the Chauvin Arnoux LOCAT-N C.A 6681 Cable Locator is a versatile product. It has been optimised to be versatile in every way, for example, both elements included in this product are lightweight and handheld. They both feature large LCD, backlit displays with optimised contrast, and contain built-in torches, ensuring that the Chauvin Arnoux LOCAT-N C.A 6681 Cable Locator can be used in a multitude of environments, as well as being capable of performing a multitude of tasks.

Further to this, the transmitter and receiver can both display bar graphs and their respective, remaining battery lives (the receiver will also display the transmitter’s battery life in addition to its own).

The C.A6881E Transmitter and C.A 6681R Receiver are both easy-to-use and allow the user to access various modes and functions. The C.A 6681E Transmitter can be used to adjust the output power and change the transmission code, whilst the C.A 6681R Receiver allows the user to adjust the sensitivity of the automatic and manual detection, as well as select either the cable detection or mains-voltage detection modes.

The C.A 6681R Receiver also has large function buttons, adding to the product’s ease-of-use.

Another feature present on the receiver is that it will display the measured signal both in the form of a value and in the form of a bar chart which uses acoustic signals, whose amplitudes vary in proportion to the signal distance, to display the signal details.  

The Chauvin Arnoux LOCAT-N C.A 6681 Cable Locator is multifunctional, practical and easy-to-use, an excellent addition to any toolkit, especially as it also contains digital technology which works to improve the accuracy of the location details, as it reduces the influence of interference or disturbance signals.
