Description

Industrial-Grade Magnetic Locator with Submersible Sensor Shaft, Digital Interference Erase Mode, and Visual Power Line Safety Alert

The CST Berger 19-557 Magna-Trak 102 Magnetic Locator delivers professional-grade subsurface tracking utility and absolute signal reliability for field excavation teams. Engineered with a 42.75-inch waterproof aluminum sensor tube and rugged water-resistant top housing, this specialized hand tool isolates high-depth iron and steel targets while completely filtering out non-ferrous structural interference. This heavy-duty surveying solution resolves time-consuming excavation tracking errors, boundary pin identification delays, and utility mapping bottlenecks by integrating a proprietary Erase feature to virtually eliminate magnetic clutter from nearby fences or vehicles alongside an LCD power line warning matrix. Built with tactile control interfaces that allow for rapid sensitivity adjustments on the fly, this lightweight 3.0 lb. locating system maintains structural performance across mud, shallow water trenches, asphalt overlays, and frozen concrete soil sheets.

Best Used For:

  • Obstruction-Heavy Pinpoint Location: Locating buried survey stakes, iron surveyor pins, and structural corner markers positioned immediately adjacent to steel chain-link fences or parked fleet vehicles.
  • Subsurface Utility Tracking: Pinpointing buried structural manhole covers, fuel tanks, steel valve boxes, and cast-iron pipeline paths before mechanical digging begins.
  • All-Weather Infrastructure Recovery: Tracking hidden pipeline joints, well casings, and metal utility vault lids reliably across deep snow, muddy trenches, and water-logged field terrain.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • Innovative Erase Technology: Digital interference mode allows operators to virtually block out local background magnetic fields to return signals to normal baselines.
  • Visual Power Line Indicator: Integrated LCD panel flashes automated telemetry alerts to protect technicians from live buried or overhead electrical line radiation fields.
  • Submersible Aluminum Sensor Tube: Completely sealed lower tube construction guarantees structural waterproof defense for deep trench submersion.
  • High-Contrast LCD Display: Features a visual numeric scale and bar graph layout to complement audio tones for precise, rapid center-point alignment.
  • Advanced Toroidal Sensors: High-tech sensor arrays isolate targeted ferrous fields while bypassing distracting aluminum, brass, and copper signals.

What's Included

  • (1) CST Berger Magna-Trak 102 Magnetic Locator (19-557)
  • (1) Soft Padded Utility Carrying Case

Pro-Tip: When surveying immediately next to a metal security fence, place the locator tip close to the fence frame and depress the Erase mode button. This temporarily resets the baseline telemetry to zero, allowing you to sweep the ground line freely and pick up deeper property pins without tracking regional fence interference.
