Advanced features detect information about underground utilities :
A feature exclusive to the 1420-iD/1420E-iD locators is the ability to read, write and lock programmed information into the 3M™ Electronic Marker System iD Markers. Information such as a pre-programmed unique identification number, facility data, owner information, application type, placement date and other details from up to 100 markers can all be stored with date/time stamp and transmitted back to your PC for enhanced resource
management.
Accurate even in congested areas :
The 1420-iD/1420E-iD locators are unaffected by metal conduit or pipe, metallic conductors, fences, AC power or electronic markers for other utilities. Multiple markers located at close proximity can be read individually using this system.
A simple, easy-to-use system :
A simple, easy-to-use system Lightweight and compact, the locators are rugged, ergonomic and require very little operator training. A large bright backlit digital liquid crystal display screen and soft-key operation make them easy to understand and use for more precise locates. A “memory” feature remembers operator set-up from the previous use. A standard RS232/USB communications port allows interface to an external computer for uploading/downloading of data, unit configuration and remote software upgrades. The system is estimated to operate for more than 25 hours on eight AA alkaline batteries.
Exclusive GPS system adds accuracy with ease:
The 3M™ Dynatel™ Electronic Marker System Marker Locators 1420-iD/1420E-iD are now compatible with select GPS/GIS field mapping instruments for real-time mapping of marker placement. The customized Dynatel interface commands the GPS/GIS device allowing even a generalist field technician to perform real-time mapping. It’s a simple system for mapping marker placement and saving information directly into CAD and GIS systems. The electronic export of this information in GIS format creates an automated paperless system for records updating, making positive locates in the field easier than ever.
