692 RadioDetection, a specialist in the design and development of cable and pipe locators, has launched a new range of precision locators. The RD7000+ products focus on core user requirements by incorporating dynamic overload protection to improve location performance in electrically noisy areas and a compass, which determines and displays the orientation of the target cable or pipe, simplifying route determination and helping to improve depth measurement accuracy.

The RD7000+ range consists of four locators, all of which are Centros-enabled. Centros is a measurement engine based on more than 30 years of continuous development, combining new and innovative algorithms with established software on a high-performance processor core.
