XHGX507C1 Cable Pipe Locator | Cable Fault Locator
XHGX507C1 is a comprehensive underground metal pipeline and cable
path detection instrument (cable pipe locator) with strong
performance. It provides pipeline path detection, pipeline census,
depth measurement, cable identification and fault finding, and
consists of a transmitter, a transmitting current clamp, a
receiver, a receiving flexible current clamp, a connecting test
line and an optional A-frame. It accurately locates pipelines and
cables and measures depth, making it suitable for trenchless
detection and patrol work.
Designed For: Municipal underground utility pipeline census and maintenance
departments, city planning and construction bureaus performing
route surveys, oil and gas pipeline patrol crews, railway and
airport underground utility teams, and surveying contractors that
map and verify buried metal pipelines and cables before excavation.

Core Features
Multiple detection modes: classic positioning mode, wire cruise
mode and signal distortion measurement mode.
Classic positioning mode shows compass, direction and signal
amplitude to intuitively indicate the left and right direction of
the pipeline.
Wire cruise mode gives 360° all-round pipeline path indication with
continuous depth, current and relative position display.
Signal distortion measurement mode displays peak and trough
waveforms simultaneously to judge distorted scenes.
Current direction determination eliminates adjacent line
interference and prevents tracking errors.
Fully digital high-precision sampling with an extremely narrow
receiving passband and strong anti-interference ability.
11 active detection frequencies and 3 passive detection frequencies
for different site conditions.
Supports direct connection, caliper coupling and induction signal
output, with automatic impedance matching and protection.
Suitable for path detection, pipeline census and depth measurement
of underground metal pipelines and cables in trenchless
environments.
Detection Modes & Depth Measurement
Classic Positioning ModeThe classic positioning mode shows a compass, direction and signal
amplitude so the operator can intuitively see the left and right
direction of the pipeline and follow the route accurately.
Wire Cruise ModeThe wire cruise mode gives 360° all-round pipeline path indication
and continuously displays the depth, current and relative position
of the pipeline. The interface is simple and intuitive and can be
operated without experience.
Signal Distortion Measurement ModeThis mode displays peak and trough waveforms simultaneously. In a
distortion-free scene the peak and trough positions are consistent
and the shape is symmetrical about the centre line, helping the
operator judge distorted or complex scenes.
Depth & Current MeasurementThe instrument measures underground cable and pipeline depth from 0
to 20m and displays depth and current in real time, with a plane
positioning accuracy of ±5% for burial depths of 0–3m and -10% for
depths of 3–20m.
Fault Finding (Optional A-Frame)With the optional A-frame the instrument can also find cable sheath
and insulation faults, extending its use from route survey and
depth measurement to fault location.
FAQ
Q1: Who is the XHGX507C1 cable pipe locator designed for?
It is designed for municipal underground utility pipeline census
and maintenance departments, city planning and construction bureaus
performing route surveys, oil and gas pipeline patrol crews,
railway and airport underground utility teams, and surveying
contractors that map and verify buried metal pipelines and cables
before excavation.
Q2: What detection modes does it provide?
It provides a classic positioning mode that shows the left and
right direction of the pipeline, a wire cruise mode with 360°
all-round path indication and continuous depth and current display,
and a signal distortion measurement mode that shows peak and trough
waveforms to judge distorted scenes.
Q3: How deep and how accurately can it measure?
The depth measurement range is 0 to 20m with real-time depth and
current display. The plane positioning accuracy is ±5% for burial
depths of 0–3m and -10% for burial depths of 3–20m.
Q4: How far can it trace pipelines and cables?
With the direct connection method the traceable length generally
reaches 0–20km and with the coupling method 0–10km, depending
mainly on ground resistance, cable resistance and burial depth,
while the induction method suits cables buried less than 2m deep.
Q5: How does it cope with interference and find faults?
Its extremely narrow receiving passband and digital processing
fully suppress the power frequency and harmonic interference of
adjacent running cables, and an anti-interference indicator shows
whether results can be trusted. An optional A-frame adds cable
sheath and insulation fault finding.
