KCL-01
The safety can no longer be insured if the instrument:
• Shows obvious damage
• does not carry out the desired measurements
• has been stored for too long under unfavorable conditions
• has been subjected to mechanical stress during transport.
All relevant statutory regulations must be adhered to when using this instrument

2. General Description

The Cable Locator consists of a transmitter and a receiver, which is a portable measurement
instrument and can be used to detect or trace conductors.
The signal generated by the transmitter is made of a modulated current, generating an
electro-magnetic field around a conductor. This electro-magnetic field induces a voltage
within the receiving coil. The induced voltage is amplified, decoded, and converted to the
original signal by the receiver, and finally displayed on the screen.
The connecting parameter for the transmitter during an application must be a closed
current circuit.

2.1 Features:

• Finding conductors in walls, conductor interruptions, short-circuits in conductors
• Conductor tracing in the soil
• Detecting fuses and assigning current circuits
• Tracing sockets and distribution sockets having accidentally been covered by plastering
• Detecting interruptions and short-circuits in floor heating
• Tracing metallic water and heating piping
• All application areas (both, voltage-free and live) are performed without usin any
additional instruments
• Transmitter display indicates the transmission level, the transmission code, as well as
the foreign voltage
• Receiver display indicates the reception level, the transmission code, as well as the
mains voltage detection
• Automatic and manual sensitivity adjustment
• Acoustic reception signal may be switched off
• Auto-Power-Off function
• Backlight
• Additional lighting function when working under bad lighting conditions
• Additional transmitters are available to extend or distinguish several signals

Transmitter Built-in Fuses
The built-in fuses protect the instrument against overload or faulty manipulation.
The built-in fuse may only be replaced by our factory service department.
Detecting that a fuse has tripped: The reason for the output signal generated by the
transmitter being only weak could be that the fuse has tripped. To verify whether the fuse
has tripped, please proceed as follows:
