Tomkat V2 Pipe & Cable Locator with 5m Sonde for Drain and Pipe Tracing Malaysia
Tomkat V2 Pipe & Cable Locator with 5m Sonde for Drain and Pipe Tracing Malaysia
Introduction
Locating underground plastic drains and non-metallic pipes has always been a challenge because they do not carry electrical signals like metal pipes or power cables. Traditional cable locators often struggle to detect these utilities accurately.
The Tomkat V2 Pipe & Cable Locator, when used with the included 5m Sonde (33kHz) from the SIGEN 2+ Signal Transmitter Builder's Kit, provides an effective solution for tracing underground drains, sewer pipes, cable ducts, and PVC conduits.
This makes it an ideal tool for contractors, plumbers, utility companies, and maintenance professionals throughout Malaysia.
What Is a Sonde?
A Sonde is a small battery-powered transmitter that emits a detectable radio signal.
Instead of locating the pipe itself, the Tomkat V2 detects the signal transmitted by the Sonde.
This allows users to accurately locate underground non-metallic utilities that would otherwise be impossible to trace using conventional locating methods.
How Does the 5m Sonde Work?
The included 5m Sonde (33kHz) is inserted into:
Drain pipes
Sewer lines
PVC conduits
Cable ducts
Plastic water pipes (where accessible)
Once inside the pipe:
The Sonde transmits a 33kHz locating signal.
The Tomkat V2 receiver detects the signal from above ground.
The operator follows the signal to trace the exact route of the pipe.
The pipe alignment and direction can be marked before excavation begins.
Why Use a Sonde?
Many underground utilities are made from non-metallic materials such as PVC or HDPE, making them invisible to standard cable locators.
Using the Sonde allows users to:
Locate hidden drainage systems
Trace blocked sewer lines
Find underground ducts
Verify pipe routes before excavation
Reduce unnecessary digging
Improve maintenance efficiency
