Non-Metallic Pipe Tracing: Plastic Pipe Tracer

Line Tracing

The Plastic Pipe Tracers can be used in services up to 3 metres deep (Locator

dependent) on line tracing mode and do not work through metal pipes or ducts.

The Plastic Pipe Tracer needs to be inserted into the pipe before a signal from

the Generator/ Transmitter is applied to the length of the Tracer.

The 33kHz Generator/ Transmitter signal is applied using the ‘Direct Connection

to a metal pipe’ method as shown on page 23-24 of this manual. Only one lead is

connected to the Plastic Pipe Tracer, the other is connected to an Earth Stake.

NOTE It is important that a change of pitch is heard when making the connections to ensure that there is a

detectable signal present on the Tracer.

NOTE The Generator/ Transmitter signal is unlikely to travel the entire length of the Tracer within the pipe.

Never assume that you have located the end of the Tracer on Line Tracing Mode. Use End Tracing if required.

WARNING Authorisation may be required before using the Plastic Pipe Tracer on some services.

WARNING DO NOT touch the metal of the Crocodile Clips or the terminals of the Plastic Pipe Tracer

when using the Generator/ Transmitter.
