The Fisher TW-6 Pipe and Cable Locator is an essential tool for utility professionals, designed to precisely locate buried pipes, cables, and other underground utilities. Renowned for its durability and ease of use, the TW-6 offers both inductive and conductive tracing modes, providing versatility for various locating tasks. This device excels in complex environments where multiple conductors or metal objects are present, allowing users to accurately trace and pinpoint targets even in congested areas. The inductive mode generates an electromagnetic field around buried conductors, enabling efficient locating without direct contact, while the conductive mode delivers enhanced precision through direct connections to exposed cables or pipes. Whether used for tracing long utility lines or identifying the exact location of valves, risers, or manhole covers, the TW-6 ensures reliable performance with its rugged design and high sensitivity.
With practical features such as an adjustable sensitivity knob, multiple audio feedback tones, and a built-in level indicator display, the TW-6 enhances operational control for field technicians. It supports on-handle or ground-based tracing, offering flexibility depending on the task at hand. This locator is powered by easily replaceable AA batteries, providing up to 30 hours of operation. Its compact build and lightweight design ensure ease of handling during extended operations, while optional accessories like coupling clamps and tracer probes further expand its functionality. Ideal for both routine maintenance and troubleshooting, the TW-6 continues Fisher's legacy of dependable and high-performance locating equipment.
