C.A.T^3TM – cost effective, easy to use cable avoidance tool

The Radiodetection C.A.T™ and Genny^3™ has become the industry standard pipe and cable avoidance tool, recognized as the leader across all industry segments providing performance, ruggedness and reliability, together with affordability and low cost of ownership.


Latest Technologies – AvoidanceScan™ and StrikeAlert™
The C.A.T³ utilizes the latest technologies to bring you the most optimized cable avoidance tool in the market place today.  AvoidanceScan™ allows the user to sweep an area searching for Power, Radio and Genny signals simultaneously, dramatically speeding up pre dig survey times and encouraging full use of all three modes reducing costs and improving safety.  Although work practices and guidelines insist power cables are buried below a certain depth, a common cause of cable strike is shallow cables. The StrikeAlert feature alerts the user to shallow power cables by flashing the ALERT icon on the display of the C.A.T³V or C.A.T³+.

Locate Quality
Cutting edge technology within the C.A.T³ ensures fastest possible processing of data. This has resulted in exceptionally fast sound and meter response, improved precision pinpointing together with a smoothness that puts the user in complete control.  Latest and patented signal processing techniques have given the C.A.T the ability to reject unwanted signals to a level never achieved before. This has optimized the C.A.T for operation in the most demanding of environments such as congested sites and sites with overhead electrical cables.

Enhanced User Features
Poor light conditions can lead to misread information from the meter. The C.A.T³ auto switching backlight feature minimises these effects and allows continued use of the C.A.T into the night. The pulse/continuous switch on the Genny³ allows the user to select the setting to their individual preference and to optimize battery saving. In addition the Genny³ is compatible with the different versions of 33kHz C.A.T³ but also all previous versions of 33kHz C.A.T.

Real Sound means the sound you hear is derived from the signal radiating from the cable or pipe. With very little experience this very important feature helps the user distinguish the signal from random background noise.
