Passive 50/60 Hz Locating; Passive Radio Frequency Locating; Passive Rectifier Cp Locating - SubSurface Instruments PL-VF10 User Manual

The r
underground primary and secondary power utilities. In certain circumstances, this mode will also
locate water pipes, sewer lines, cable television, and telephone. The reason is that common electrical
grounds are sometimes found among these various utilities. Select 50Hz or 60Hz frequency on the
Receiver. PINPOINT Peak mode will automatically be selected as the preferred method to locate the
conductor in passive power mode.
This method is useful because of its speed and convenience. Start at a known reference point and keep
in mind that other conductors in the area may produce this same locating signal.
The Transmitter is not required to locate in this mode.
n : The unit of depth measurement determines the selection of either 50Hz or 60Hz passive

mode. The unit is configured for 50Hz when in Metric Measurement mode and 60Hz when in English
Measurement Mode. To change unit of measurement press and hold the frequency button for 10
seconds, when released the unit will toggle measurement units.

coupled to the utility. This mode is useful for sweeping a green area for utilities. In certain circumstances,
this mode will locate water pipes, cable television, gas lines and telephone. This locating option does
not always detect buried utilities even when radio frequencies are present. This method is useful
because of its speed and convenience. Start at a known reference point and keep in mind that other
conductors in the area may produce this same locating signal.

The pl-vf reCeIver is capable of locating the rectified signal of Cathodically Protected utilities at
120Hz and 100Hz. This method is useful because of its speed and convenience. Start at a known
reference point and keep in mind that other conductors in the area may produce this same locating
signal.
Note: The unit of depth measurement determines the selection of either 100Hz or 120Hz passive mode.
The unit is configured for 100Hz when in Metric Measurement mode (for 50Hz power) and 120Hz (for
60Hz power) when in English Measurement Mode. To change unit of measurement press and hold the
frequency button for 10 seconds, when released the unit will toggle measurement units.
