TEMPO COMMUNICATIONS | PART #IC1
501 INDUCTIVE COUPLER
DESCRIPTION
Inductive Clamp for the Tracker II. With its inductive signal detection, the TEMPO Communications Tracker II can be used on active or dead systems. Now you can trace the path and determine the depth of buried wires, cables, and metallic pipes or conduit and find the ends of a cut cable without having to deactivate the systems.
OVERVIEW
- Trace the path and determine the depth of buried conductors.
- Use on active or dead systems.
- Transmitter output and receiver sensitivity are both fully adjustable for maximum accuracy.
- The lightweight receiver provides both audible and visual indications of signal strength for accurate identification.
- The transmitter offers three methods of connection: direct, inductive coupler, or inductive antenna.
- Inductive coupler clamps around the wire or pipe for use on active lines, or where isolating the line is not an option.
- Inductive antenna is built into the case housing and allows the transmitter to be placed on the ground over the wire path to radiate a signal down onto the conductor.
- Traces over distances to 4,000 feet (1.2 km) and depths to 7 feet (2.2 m).
- Adjustable sensitivity and transmitter power.
- Includes transmitter assembly, receiver assembly, inductive coupler (clamp), inductive antenna (built-in), two 8 foot (2.4 m) test leads with heavy-duty alligator clips, and a durable polyethylene case.
- Battery-operated (8 - AA and 1 - 9V NOT included).

Common Questions About the Tempo IC1 501 Inductive Coupler
What is the Tempo IC1 Inductive Coupler used for?
The Tempo IC1 is an inductive clamp designed for the 501 Tracker II system, allowing technicians to apply a tracing signal to buried wires, cables, metallic pipes, and conduit.
Can the Tempo IC1 be used on active lines?
Yes. The IC1 clamps around a wire or pipe to inductively apply a signal, making it useful on active lines or in situations where isolating the conductor is not practical.
Does the Tempo IC1 require a direct electrical connection to the conductor?
No. The IC1 uses inductive coupling, allowing a tracing signal to be applied without making a direct electrical connection to the wire, cable, or metallic pipe.
