Product Details
The CD52 Bandit allows safe, simple and reliable non-intrusive detection of pig passages anywhere within your pipeline network. Simply strap the CD52 onto a pipeline and it immediately begins scanning for both transmitter and permanent magnet equipped pig passages.
When pig passages occur their times and dates are displayed along with a flashing “Recent Passage” message. If multiple pig passages occur, simply scroll back through the passage memory and retrieve the time and date of any one of the last 10 passages.
In addition to visual indications, the CD52 Bandit initiates a dry contact relay closure; this relay can support an electrical connection of 120VAC to 1A or 30VDC to 3A.
An optional 316 stainless steel sunshade is a recommended option to increase heat shedding in deserts and other areas with high levels of heat and direct sunlight.
