3M Dynatel 2273

3M Dynatel 2273 is an underground cable and fault locator that measures and pinpoints sheath, conductor, and insulation faults, and locates cable path and depth. It discriminates between low and high resistance faults, works on energized or de-energized cables, includes a signal generator and A-Frame, and supports multiple trace frequencies and detection modes.

Product Overview

• Pinpoints sheath, conductor, insulation faults. - Locates underground cable path and depth. - Detects energized or de-energized cables. - Four active trace frequencies with signal generator, direct connect, clamp induction, passive RF, and 50/60Hz power signal detection. Included A-Frame fault locator. Simple operation.

The Dynatel 2273 is designed for professionals who must confidently locate, identify, and document underground infrastructure in congested corridors. Its multi-frequency transmitter and intelligent receiver display allow technicians to interpret signal behavior, confirm line paths, and diagnose fault locations with high positional confidence.

Target Market

Ideal for utility locators, telecom technicians, electrical maintenance crews, and municipal or construction field teams handling underground cable installation, maintenance, and repair. Suited to pinpoint insulation, sheath, and conductor faults on un-shielded buried cables, verify cable path and depth, and work across energized or de-energized lines.
