The innovative, professional-quality Fluke 2042 cable locator will not only trace cables but will also trace metal water and heating pipes in HVAC applications.
It will help to quickly locate fuses and circuit breakers on final circuits, as well as interruptions and short circuits in cables.
A transmitter unit emits a digitally coded signal which guarantees clear signal identification by the receiver unit: any false interpretation caused by interference signals is therefore eliminated.
Both handheld test units have clear backlit LCD digital and bargraph displays.
The Fluke 2042 features a built-in noncontact voltage measurement capability.
The receiver also incorporates a torch for working in low light.
The 2042 is available as a complete kit, comprising transmitter and receiver in a purpose-made carrying case, from Fluke authorised wholesalers and distributors at a recommended price of GBP 353.
Additional transmitters are available to extend the instrument's capabilities. Request a free brochure from Fluke (UK) ...
