Cable Detection EZiCAT i550 Cable & Pipe Locator

One model up from the hugely popular i500, the EZiCAT i550 is the cable avoidance tool from Cable Detection with the significant added benefit of service depth indication when used in conjunction with the EZiTEX signal generator available through this site.

The i550 comes complete with all the features of the i500 with the added boon of 'depth indication'. This can be of great benefit to the average user who may require a little more three dimensional information than its sibling is able to provide. Featuring the most up to date signal processing and cable detection technology, this fantastic tool is used by countless trades and professions in order to protect their workforce and their organisations.

Advanced Functionality

Unlike many cable avoidance tools (CATs) on the market, the i550 is incredibly easy to use. It becomes immediately apparent when getting to grips with it that this tool has been designed from the ground up with the user in mind rather than simply the purpose or end result.

Not satisfied simply with producing a tool that's user-friendly, with the i550 Cable Detection has also delivered advanced detection functionality in spades. Key functions of this device include...

  • Depth Indication - When used in partnership with the EZiTRACE the user is also provided with depth information about the services they are tracing.
  • Power Mode - The i550 starts off in this mode as soon as it's turned on for the sake of safety. This detects signals radiated by power cables - those services most likely to damage, injure or kill.
  • Radio Mode - This mode lets the user detect signals coming from signal emitters/generators. These signals flow down through the ground and along services away from the signal generator.
  • Pinpoint Assist - Fed up of constantly adjusting your CAT's sensitivity? No problem! Pinpoint Assist automatically does this for you to ensure you're always using the right settings. What's more, the device automatically stores the highest reading shown on the numerical display for a few seconds making it easier and faster to acurately locate a service.
  • Hazard Zone - Alerts the operator to cables that are particularly near to the surface.
  • Automatic Mode - Automatically detects both radio and power signals (see above). Quick, accurate and simple.
  • SSI (Signal Strength Indicator) - When an EZiTX XF signal generator is connected to a particular service the operator will, when scanning, see a higher numerical value on the screen when approaching that service. The highest number means he/she is exactly above it.
  • Enhanced Sonde Detection - When using in conjunction with a sonde (also available through this site) the large, backlit display shows a higher numerical value the closer the user is to the sonde. When the highest number is reached the user is directly above it.

Whilst these are the main abilities of the EZiCAT i550, other notable features include a useful service indicator that tells the user when a 12 month service is due, a super-clear, backlit LCD screen for use in all light conditions and a test function which allows the operator to verify that the tool is fully operational before use.

Ergonomic & Simple To Operate

As with all models in the EZiCAT range, the i550 has been designed with the user in mind. Comfortable and ergonomic to use, this cable avoidance tool is also incredibly easy to use. Thanks to its advanced processing abilities and automatic controls, this really is a tool that can be easily mastered with the minimum of training.

To get an idea as to just how simple it can be to carry out a trace, why not watch this short official video from Cable Detection themselves?
