Congratulations! You have just purchased one of the finest, most advanced locating
devices available today!
The 3M
™
Dynatel
™
Cable/Pipe/Fault Locators 2250M-iD/2273M-iD are designed with
all of the functionality of previous Dynatel models, and iD versions have the enhanced
capability to read and write user information into the 3M iD markers. Information such
as a pre-programmed identification number, facility data, application type, placement
date and other details can all be read, stored and downloaded to your PC for enhanced
resource management with this revolutionary equipment. The Dynatel Cable/Pipe/Fault
Locators 2250M-iD/2273M-iD will also search for two different types of utility markers
simultaneously. When used in conjunction with a hand-held GPS device the ability to
transmit path and marker coordinates multiplies the potential to the mapping industry.
This equipment provides a simple system for mapping utility information directly into
CAD and GIS systems.
The 2250M/2273M Series transmitters are available in 3-watt, 5-watt and 12-watt units.
12 watts for the 12-watt transmitter, or 5 watts for the 5-watt transmitter, is attained by
utilizing the Cigarette Lighter Adapter or External Rechargeable Battery (2200RB).
3M is dedicated to bringing you premium equipment with outstanding reliability, backed
by one of the best warranties in the business and outstanding service.
