LOCATING A SONDE OR CAMERA HEAD USING THE CL
2150
Before you begin, you must
choose a Sonde that will
match the same frequency as
the receiver. You will need a
Sonde with a frequency of
512HZ, 640HZ, 8KHZ, or
33KHZto use with the CL
2150 Locator Receiver.
The key to Sonde locating
success is practice and patience. Before going out on your first locate, it
is a good idea to take your receiver and Sonde out and try locating the
Sonde and calculating the depth.
Attaching a Push Device
Attaching a push rod to the
Sonde can be accomplished
by using the coupling on the
end of the Sonde. A spring
coupling is recommended to
allow the sonde to move eas-
ier. Or, if you need to attach
the Sonde to a sewer auger, it
is recommended you use
duct tape and apply as the
shown in the figure below. If
taping the Sonde on a metal
pushing device, it is recom-
mended to place the battery
side of the Sonde closest to
the device. This will allow
for the best performance.
Wrap the snake for approxi-
mately 1 foot in the location
where the Sonde is going to
be attached. Also attaching the Sonde 18 inches behind the cutting head
is recommended. First, wrap the Sonde in the duct tape and then attach
the Sonde to the snake using the duct tape.
