The company Mala is the manufacturer of the Radiodetection RD8100 which is the latest locator of underground services and is built on over 40 years of experience of producing equipment for the location and identification of underground services. The RD8100 contains a unique arrangement of five custom manufactured precision ground antennae, and this enables the operator to select the optimum level of precision for any given job. As the company says, utility infrastructures are becoming more complex, and this means that surveyors who have the job of locating them need to have the very latest tools for the job.

The RD8100 integrated GPS and usage-logging options automatically generate data for customer reports, or in-house quality and safety audits to promote best working practices. It automatically logs key locate parameters every second which provides a comprehensive picture of individual locates, and enables you to assess usage patterns over a period of a year or more. The data can be used to ensure compliance with best practice. It can also be shared with partners or clients to show compliance to their requirements and provide evidence of completion of the task. The data can also be exported in multiple file formats, for example, to Google Maps to show when and where work was carried out.

If a Genny cannot be connected, tracing individual power cables can be challenging with powerful or conflicting signals. However, by pressing a single key on the RD8100, it utilises the harmonic properties of power signals to establish whether a signal comes from one source or multiple cables, and then you can track and mark their routes.

The RD8100 has a 4 kHz locate frequency which can trace high impedance lines such as street lighting or twisted pair telecoms. These are often found in areas of high density and the 4 kHz can be combined with CD to ensure that the right line is followed.

The RD8100 has a lot of advantages such as Dynamic Overload Protection which filters out interference so that it can be used in electrically noisy areas such as under power cables or around substations.

There are a lot more advantages to the RD8100 and they are all covered in the comprehensive Radiodetection RD8100 Training course that is provided by Sygma Solutions. The company has devised a special course dedicated to the Mala RD8100 in order to ensure that operatives are fully aware of all the capabilities of the equipment.
