Product Overview
The Armada Technologies GFL3000 is an A-frame fault locator for pinpointing where insulation damage allows current to leak from a direct-buried conductor into the surrounding soil. After the cable route has been identified, the transmitter applies a pulsed high-voltage signal and the A-frame receiver indicates the direction toward the fault. This can help a technician narrow the excavation area instead of exposing a long section of cable.
The transmitter offers selectable 2400V or 3400V DC output for different locating conditions and includes a rechargeable 12V battery. The receiver uses a separate 9V battery. Because the tool generates high voltage, it must be used only on isolated cable by a trained person following the manual and site safety procedures. A separate cable locator is needed when the path is not already known.
