Radiodetection MRX Precision Locators

Radiodetection MRX Precision Cable Locators with Marker Ball Antenna & Survey Features

The MRX Advantage: Utility and Marker Ball locating in One powerful Device

• Simultaneous Locate Mode: Detect RF markers and buried utilities in a single sweep; reducing time, cost, and effort.
• Pinpoint Precision: Advanced signal processing ensures fast and accurate locating of even difficult-to-detect utilities.
• Designed for Professionals: Three different models to suit every locate professional’s needs, including GNSS connectivity and survey-grade mapping.
• Built for the field: Manufactured in the UK, the MRX series incorporates decades of Radiodetection’s expertise and feedback from the field, ensuring quality and reliability.

What are RF Markers?
RF (Radio Frequency) markers locate underground utilities like plastic pipes, fiber optic cables and critical points. Types include marker balls, near-surface, mid-range, and full-range markers. Buried near assets, they are essential for hard-to-find assets. Radiodetection’s RF marker locators are engineered to locate the most widely used RF marker types effectively.

How They Work
Each RF marker is embedded with a unique radio frequency that identifies the utility it marks, such as telecoms, gas, or water. When buried during installation or maintenance, the marker ball stays in place, serving as a signal for future detection.
RF markers echo signals when activated by the Radiodetection MRX locator. Since they require no power source, they are durable and maintenance-free, making them a reliable solution for identifying critical infrastructure in dense utility networks.
With these tools, utility locating becomes easier and safer, providing confidence when locating utilities and RF markers.
