Directional Drilling / Trenchless Boring Sewer Listening Device
LD216M
Horizonal Directional Drilling (HDD)
Remote Listening Device
Reliable, Light-Weight and Weather Tight
The LD216M Horizonal Directional Drilling Remote Listening Device is a self-contained device that allows an operator to monitor the sound of a drill-head, thus allowing them to identify when and if the drill-head meets an obstruction such as a sewer pipe by placing the included microphone into a manhole to listen to the sound of the drill as it is operated. When the drill meets an obstacle, there will be a change in the audio which will be immediately recognizable to the operator listening to the receiver belt pack.
(NOTE: Orange color case no longer available)
The device is easy to transport thanks to its light-weight design and integrated handle and wheel set.
It is also intuitive to operate – just connect the microphone and microphone cable to the connection port and the device will automatically power on and begin transmitting. The charger uses the same port and will begin to charge as soon as it is plugged in to the multi-function port on the side of the unit.
The lid should be closed and latched while the device is in operation to keep the unit weather tight.
