As a safety critical tool, C.A.T4® offer a number of features designed to support safe working and help to drive utility strike rates down. StrikeAlert® warns the operator of shallow buried utilities, while the SWING™ warning alerts of incorrect usage patterns, encouraging corrective action. C.A.T4’s Dynamic Overload Protection™ feature automatically filters out high levels of interference, allowing operators to continue working even in electrically noisy areas such as substations and under high-voltage cables.
For customers who wish to survey and report what they find and trace, the gC.A.T4+ model features usage monitoring and GPS, logging key locate parameters every second to aid in identifying training needs, compliance and recording workflow patterns, providing data on not only when and how, but also where the gC.A.T4+ was being used.
