en.Wedoany.com Reported - Fluke has recently launched the SmartTrace 2082 series underground locator in the UK. This device accurately provides the location, depth, and path information of underground cables and pipes, helping workers identify unknown assets before excavation to prevent damage. Designed for precise tracing and fault detection, SmartTrace can locate issues such as ground faults, sheath faults, and coating defects on pipes or cables in contact with the ground. By detecting the location where metal conductors contact ground faults or leakage current, it enhances on-site safety and efficiency.

This underground locator achieves positioning by injecting a signal into the asset, reaching depths of up to 6 meters, and supports Bluetooth connectivity with the Fluke PointMan application. Users can map and record utility locations in real-time on their smartphones. The geolocation feature improves tracing accuracy and provides future reference for projects. Sanid Usanovic, Senior Technical Application Manager at Fluke, stated: "Accidental damage to underground utilities remains a serious challenge, with approximately 60,000 utility 'strikes' occurring annually during excavation in the UK. SmartTrace represents the next step in digital utility management, combining real-time precision with connected intelligence to help workers confidently map, trace, and verify underground assets, reducing risk and improving efficiency."
