Wavetrak’s WT-RC receivers are very sensitive to even weak signals. The display includes both an analog meter and a digital LED light bar to provide an easy way to view signal strength. They feature a backlit panel which lights up when ambient light levels are low making it easy to see in any lighting conditions. Digital detection and AC hum reduction circuitry provide good noise rejection even in noisy electrical environments

WT-RC model receivers are made out of a light and durable aluminum frame, have a high impact ABS-PC handle and polycarbonate internals. Completely sealed, they are waterproof. They feature over 200 hours of continuous operation on one set of batteries (dependant on use of optional external strobe and signal detection). They are small and easy to handle, even with one hand.

Included with a receiver kit, and also available as additional accessories are a nylon case, an external antenna, an extension cable, and a hard sided carrying case.

Receivers come strobe-equipped, out of the box. This allows an optional external strobe light (purchased seperately from the kit) to be plugged into the receiver. This light is triggered by the signal detection of the receiver and serves to alert the operator remotely that a transmitter has been detected. Additional strobe lights can also be ordered as accessories. (Strobe light wil not be IECEx certified).

The WT-RC model receivers also feature push button gain controls, low battery warning, and a buzzer switch to silence the detection tone.

Wavetrak Electronics’ patented construction allows for a stronger signal from a smaller pigging transmitter. All transmitters are powered by easy to replace standard size alkaline batteries, and are built using tough stainless steel housings. Transmitters can be built on request to meet a specific signal strength or battery life requirement, as well as to accommodate lithium (3.6V) batteries.

Ex  and TR model transmitters are more durable and can withstand more pressure (2500 psi) than previous models. Also available are tough Delrin cans which serve as additional sealing and protection for the transmitter and are recommended in most pipeline applications. Temperature ranges are generally limited by the operating specifications of the batteries used. Sealing o-rings are Viton 90 standard sized o-rings and should be replaced after each use.

Some previous non-Ex models still available on request

Wavetrak Ex model transmitters are ATEX certified and comply with EN/IEC 60079-0:2011 and EN/IEC 60079-1:2007 standards.
