The Pipehorn Signal Clamp PA570 is a specialized accessory designed to enhance utility locating precision. Ideal for use with Pipehorn 800 Series Transmitters, this signal clamp is perfect for professionals who need to apply signals to target conductors where direct connection isn’t feasible. Its patented design ensures superior signal strength, even in challenging conditions.

Key Features:

  • Enhanced Signal Application: Applies stronger signals to target conductors for accurate locating.
  • Wide Compatibility: Fits conductors up to 5 inches (12.5 cm) in diameter.
  • Extended Reach Capabilities: Comes with a threaded fitting and remote control jaw actuator for use with hot sticks.
  • Durable Construction: Built for rugged use with reinforced jaws ensuring full closure for maximum signal application.
  • Efficient Signal Output: Emits a clear "ringing" sound for easy detection with Pipehorn Receivers.
  • Safe to Use: Designed for licensed professionals to minimize shock hazards during operation.

Specifications:

  • Target Conductor Diameter: Up to 5 inches
  • Construction: Reinforced clamp jaws and durable materials
  • Compatibility: Designed exclusively for Pipehorn 800 Series Transmitters
  • Weight: Lightweight and portable for field use
  • Accessories: Compatible with extension handles (hot sticks)

Note: This method will be successful only when there is no common or cross-bonding of the cables between the clamp (where signal is applied) and the receiver (where signal is detected).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What safety precautions are required when using this clamp?

Only licensed professionals should operate the clamp near energized conductors to prevent electrical shock hazards.

Q2: Can the clamp be used with an extension handle?

Yes, it includes a threaded fitting for attaching to an extension handle for long-reach applications.

Q3: Does the clamp require calibration before use?

No, the clamp does not require calibration. However, ensure it is securely connected to the transmitter and the jaws are fully closed.

Q4: How long do the batteries last in the Pipehorn transmitter when using the clamp?

The battery life depends on usage, but the transmitter typically provides hours of consistent operation with 8 “C” alkaline batteries.

Q5: Can the signal clamp be used on energized conductors?

No, the clamp must only be used on de-energized conductors to avoid electrical hazards. Licensed professionals should follow safety protocols.

Q6: What factors could weaken the signal during use?

Weak signals may occur due to poorly grounded conductors, open circuits, or incomplete closure of the clamp jaws. Address these issues before proceeding.

Q7: Does the clamp require maintenance?

Periodically clean the jaws and check for debris to ensure proper closure and signal transmission. Replace worn components as needed.
