New C-Scope CAT’s reducing running costs

Are You Paying Recurring Calibration Charges? Now You Don’t Have To...

Cable Avoidance Tools and Signal Generators have moved forward in many ways since their creation as safety products in the early 1980’s. The introduction of Digital Signal Processing technology and the addition of Liquid Crystal Displays and depth measurement have all contributed to a significant improvement in locating performance.Furthermore, developments in case moulding techniques and higher quality electronic component manufacture have made the Cable Avoidance Tool of today a far more robust and reliable tool than was ever possible before. Yet, despite these improvements in the products inherent reliability and performance, there is one area of Locator ‘ownership’ that has not changed at all, the manufacturers’ stipulation that there is a need for their product to be calibrated and serviced periodically (typically once per year). Until now.C.Scope have introduced a new range of digital Cable Avoidance Tools and Signal Generators incorporating better software, hardware and quality control, and as a consequence have completely designed out the need for these periodic calibration checks.

The new CXL, DXL, MXL Cable Avoidance Tools and SGA, SGV and MXT Signal Generators from C.Scope do not require ANY form of annual servicing or calibration and need only be sent to a C.Scope Approved Service Centre if they are actually damaged or faulty and are in genuine need of repair. This development from C.Scope removes the very significant recurring yearly costs traditionally associated with Cable Avoidance Tool ownership. The new CXL, DXL and MXL products from C.Scope embrace all the advantages that digital technology can offer, reducing the cost of ownership, delivering the highest performance and placing C.Scope products firmly at the forefront of Cable Avoidance.

Customers using C.Scope Cable Avoidance Tools and Signal Generators are able to make use of the recently launched and unique Function Checker product to carry out a series of simple and effective functionality checks themselves to identify if the C.Scope unit requires a service or repair. Only then need it be sent away to a C.Scope Approved Service Centre for remedial work to be undertaken.
