    3M™ Dynatel™ Cable/Pipe Locator 2250M  
    and Cable/Pipe and Marker Locator 2250M-iD  
    incorporate advanced electronics to quickly and 
    efficiently trace the path of underground cables and 
    pipes (with metallic tracer wire). 
    They provide accurate cable/pipe, or Sonde  
    depth measurements, giving a digital readout  
    in inches, feet and inches, or centimeters  
    (user-selectable). Lightweight, compact  
    and well-balanced, these cable and pipe  
    locators allow you to accurately and easily:
      • Locate cable and pipe path
      •  
    Measure cable/pipe, or Sonde depth with the 
     
    push of a button
      • Display relative signal current in the cable or pipe
      • Identify cable using toning
      • Tone shorts and grounds in aerial cable
      • Identify cable pairs through wet sections
      • Locate energized power and CATV cable

    A feature exclusive to the 3M™ Dynatel™ Cable/Pipe and Marker Locator 
    2250M-iD is the ability  to  write,  read  and  lock  programmed  information 
    into  the  3M™ Electronic Marker System iD Ball Markers 1400 Series. 
    Information such as a  pre-programmed  unique identification  number, 
    facility  data,  owner information, application type, placement date and 
    other details from up to 100 markers can all be stored with date/time stamp, 
    and GPS coordinates*, and transmitted back  to  your  PC  through a  stan-
    dard  RS232  serial  port  for  enhanced resource management. 
    Designed to be more accurate, faster and more integrated, the new  
    locators can perform these additional functions:
      •  Pinpoint the location and estimate the depth of all existing models
       
     of properly installed underground passive EMS markers
     •  Conduct direct depth reading of RFiD markers
      •  Locate two different marker frequencies simultaneously
      •  Trace a cable or pipe path while simultaneously finding buried 
    markers along the way
    eXCL usive  g Ps  s Ystem adds a CCura CY with ease
    The 2250M/2250M-iD locators are now compatible with select GPS/GIS  
    field mapping instruments for real-time mapping of marker placement. The  
    customized Dynatel interface remotely commands the GPS/GIS device 
    allowing even a generalist field technician to perform real-time mapping. 
    Exporting information directly into leading CAD and GIS systems creates an 
    automated paperless system for records updating.

    L o Cates in ever Y situation 
     
    For cable or pipe locating, 2250M/2250M-iD locators have a highly accurate 
    multi-antenna design for various user-selected locating modes—Directional 
    Peak, Multi-Directional Null, plus an ultra-sensitive Special Peak mode for 
    extreme depths.
    telephonegascatv/communicationpowerwaterwastewatergeneral

    A unique “expander” function makes peaks and nulls more pronounced. 
    Directional Peak mode combines the response from four peak antennas  
    to indicate direction to the cable/pipe while a bar graph and numeric display 
    indicate the sharp and accurate dual-peak response. 
    Semi-automatic gain set with manual override provides maximum flexibility 
    and control. Multi-directional null mode shows null signal response with auto-
    matic gain and shows cable/pipe location and direction on a unique com-
    pass-like graphic display.
    * When connected to standard NMEA compliant GPS devices.
    a sim PLe, eas Y-to-use s Ystem 
    The  3M™ Dynatel™ Cable/Pipe Locators 2250M/2250M-iD require very little 
    operator training. An RS232 communications port allows interface to an 
    external computer for uploading/downloading of data, unit configuration and 
    remote software upgrades. Estimated operating time is more than 30 hours 
    on eight AA alkaline batteries. 
    The system consists of two basic components:
      •  Transmitter with built-in ohmmeter, which also measures the presence 
    of foreign voltage and tests the continuity of the circuit.
      •  Rugged, one-piece hand-held receiver with large high-resolu-
    tion LCD display. Bar graph signal strength and direction indicates 
    received signal and proximity to the cable. M-iD versions locate  
    and read/write to all EMS-RFiD markers.
    The 2250M/2250M-iD locators use four active trace frequencies (individually 
    or simultaneously) to compensate for varying field conditions. The receiver 
    incorporates passive power, CATV, and auxiliary frequencies that do not 
    require the use of the transmitter. The receiver also offers four user-defin-
    able auxiliary frequencies.
    With the easy-to-use configuration tool, users can enable or disable any 
    of 22 frequencies. Both the receiver and the transmitter feature a self-test 
    routine that is executed each time the unit is turned on.
