FCST FCST-MB145.7kHZ Marker Ball Blue For Water

$13.03

FCST Marker Ball features a rugged HDPE housing that delivers excellent resistance to corrosion, moisture, and underground environmental conditions. Operating at 145.7kHz for water utility identification, it provides accurate asset locating up to 1.5m deep. Compatible with ED8000 and 3M Dynatel locators.

Self-Orienting RF Technology: The internal RF reflector is suspended within a self-orienting structure that automatically maintains the optimal detection position underground, ensuring consistent signal performance and accurate locator readings.

Environmentally Safe Design: Contains no liquids or hazardous materials, eliminating the risk of soil or groundwater contamination.

Heavy-Duty Construction: Designed to withstand up to 400kg of localized pressure and pass a 1.5m concrete drop test without loss of functionality.

Reliable Detection Performance: Provides accurate underground asset identification at depths of up to 1.5 meters.

Broad Locator Compatibility: Fully compatible with ED8000 and other industry-standard utility locators operating at 145.7kHz, including the 3M Dynatel series.

The FCST Marker Ball is designed for direct burial or installation within underground telecom chambers, handholes, and utility pathways.

Installation Depth: For optimal detection performance, installation depth should not exceed 1.5 meters.

Clearance from Metallic Infrastructure: Maintain a minimum separation of 10cm between the marker ball and metallic ducts, pipes, or structures to minimize signal interference.

HDPE Microduct Networks: Ideal for HDPE microduct systems and other non-metallic telecom routes where traditional tracer wires are unavailable.
