Radiodetection RD316 Magnetic Locator
The RadioDetection RD316 is an easy to use and versatile magnetic locator, used for the location of buried ferrous metal objects.
Utilising the latest advancements
in electronic balancing for greater
accuracy. The RD316 can detect
objects such as surveyor's markers,
valve boxes and manhole covers
down to 2.5m (8 ft).
For locating larger
objects including
storage tanks, drums
and cast iron pipes,
depths of 4.5m (15 ft)
can be achieved.
The RD316 is simple to operate and
designed with many features that
enhance its versatility:
 an audio tone that sounds on
location of a buried object
an LCD visual indicator displays
signal strength and bar graph
to further improve accuracy,
especially in congested areas
an erase function that allows you
to block out magnetic interference
a low battery level indicator alerts
the user when new batteries are
needed and the instrument's
innovative design also provides
easy battery access.
The RD316 is lightweight, waterproof
and the easy grip design allows it to
be comfortably used for long periods.
The RD316 is a flux gate
magnetometer that incorporates
a proprietary technology, allowing
the magnetic sensing coils to be
electronically balanced to a finite
condition. The RD316 can then
implement "peak response" over
ferromagnetic objects by yielding an
increasing audio signal as the object
is approached and passed over.
