Fluke 2042 Cable Tracer Cable Tracer, Cable Detection Depth 2.5m 60 Hz, Maximum Safe Working Voltage 400 V Battery LCD

Fluke Cable Tracer, 2.5m Cable Detection Depth, 20h Battery Life - FLUKE 2042

This cable tracer is a battery-operated instrument designed to locate and follow insulated conductors in low-voltage installations. It is intended for field use by electricians and technicians to detect cables and verify circuits across a range of ambient conditions while providing a clear Visual readout of signal presence.

Features and Benefits:

• Detects conductors to 2.5 m depth for deeper cable locating capability
  Operates from a single 9 V battery for straightforward power replacement
  Provides up to 20 h runtime for prolonged site operations
  Works across 0-60 Hz frequency to trace varied signal types
  LCD meter gives clear on-site signal indication and reading
  Rated CAT III safety at 300 V for use within measured installation limits

Applications

• Suitable for tracing buried power and control cables on site
  Ideal for electricians inspecting distribution circuits up to 400 V
  Used for locating dead or live conductors during maintenance
  Can be used for mapping cable runs in building refurbishment
  Used with a transmitter to confirm continuity and routing

What temperature range will it operate within on site?

It is specified to function between 0 °C and 40 °C.

What accessory is included to inject a traceable signal?

A transmitter is supplied to apply the locating signal to conductors.

How does the unit handle maximum working voltages?

The instrument is rated for safe working on systems up to 400 V and conforms to CAT III 300 V safety categorisation.

What type of display shows detection results?

An LCD provides the Visual indication of the detected signal.

How long will it typically run before battery replacement is needed?

A single 9 V cell provides approximately 20 h of operational use.
