Radiodetection Genny 4

The Radiodetection Genny4 is a professional dual-frequency signal generator used to locate buried pipes and cables. It features a class-first simultaneous dual-frequency output (33kHz and 131kHz) to detect small-diameter cables and a 10x Signal Boost mode for greater depth and distance. Built for site durability, it includes an integrated accessory tray and is fully backwards compatible with Genny3 accessories.

  • Dual Frequency Signal Output: Transmits a standard localization frequency alongside a specialised second signal for small-diameter utility drops.
  • Signal Boost Command: Increases the output power path instantly to drive tracing signals further along deep or highly insulated pipes.
  • Built-In Accessory Storage: Features a secure internal compartment to keep connection magnets, ground stakes, and cables protected together.
  • Induction Mode Capabilities: Broadcasts localized signals directly through pavement and soil without requiring physical contact with the pipe.

FAQs

Radiodetection Genny 4
What is the primary function of the Radiodetection Genny4?
The Genny4 is a dual-frequency signal generator used to apply an active, traceable electronic signal onto buried metallic pipes and cables, allowing them to be tracked by a CAT4 locator.
Radiodetection Genny 4
Can we hire this unit for short-term projects?
Yes, the Genny4 is available for flexible short-term or long-term hire, providing a cost-effective way to execute active utility line tracing on your current contract.
Radiodetection Genny 4
What does the dual-frequency output feature do?
It transmits two frequencies simultaneously: a standard 33kHz signal for general long-distance line tracking, and a specialised second high frequency designed specifically to locate small-diameter cables like telecom or service drops.
Radiodetection Genny 4
What is the purpose of the Signal Boost function?
The Signal Boost switch increases the output power signal by up to a factor of ten, allowing the signal to travel much further along deep or highly resistant utility lines.
Radiodetection Genny 4
Can the Genny4 transmit a signal without a direct physical connection?
Yes, it features an inductive mode where placing the unit on the ground over a suspected utility will wirelessly radiate the signal down onto the pipe or cable below.
Radiodetection Genny 4
How does the direct connection method work?
You attach the red crocodile clip to a valve or valve box and the black clip to a ground stake, which injects the signal directly onto that specific metallic service.
Radiodetection Genny 4
What battery type does it use and what is the expected runtime?
The transmitter runs on four standard D-cell alkaline batteries, providing up to 40 hours of intermittent site use depending on the power output settings selected.
