The HHCL10 is ideal for pinpointing
the location of electrical cables and
metal, water, or gas pipes behind
walls, above ceilings or under
floors. It can also trace circuits,
detect open- and short-circuits,
find outlets covered by plaster,
identify a circuit’s breaker, and
locate blockages in plastic pipes.
Makes it safe to break through
any wall by revealing and locating
hidden infrastructure up to 2 m
(6.6') behind it, and eliminates the
need to find and read construction
drawings before starting a
job. Transmitter and receiver
communicate on any of eight
channels and display readings
on a big, bright, multi-function
graphic LCD.

Both units also include a flashlight
(for illuminating dark areas) and
a buzzer that can be muted.

Transmitter has three power levels;
receiver has variable sensitivity.
Compatible with one- or two-pole
circuits. Used with a metal rod,
system can locate blockages and
constrictions in plastic pipes.
