The lightweight, portable DS4000 is safe and easy for one person to use.
Leica Geosystems, part of Hexagon, has launched the Leica DS4000 utility detection system. Designed to detect underground assets at greater depths than traditional systems, it incorporates IDS GeoRadar’s Equalised Scrambling Technology (EsT) to improve clarity at various depths and enhance the identification of smaller objects, such as fiber optic cables.
Underground spaces contain a complex network of cables and pipes. As urban areas become more crowded, accurate detection systems are increasingly important for minimizing risks during excavation.
Being lightweight and portable, the DS4000 is easy and safe for a single person to transport and operate. The wheels can be quickly swapped out, enabling one user to tackle both flat surfaces and rough terrain without interruption. Furthermore, the antenna, which extends below the cart, is mounted on an automatic height-adjusting system that lowers it for detection and raises it to avoid obstacles, reducing the risk of damage.
