Underground Magnetics has been on the cutting edge of innovation in the world of HDD locators since the company’s inception. “Simple, powerful, affordable” is the guiding philosophy that President Mike Young and UMAG’s team of talented engineers used as the cornerstone for the Iowa-based company’s birth and has been built into every UMAG system produced: the simplicity of tracking on the fly; powerful data ranges that allow walkover locating at depths previously unheard of, and bundled at an affordable price point.
NEW Mag X Pro HDD Locating System
Underground Magnetics is again innovating by introducing its most powerful HDD Locating System — the Mag X Pro.
As congestion in utility easements continues to increase, the need for improved accuracy is crucial. Sub-kHz frequencies have always been the best solution for drilling in these conditions. Unfortunately, sub-kHz frequencies traditionally have limited the range, depth and ability to overcome active interference. With these concerns in mind, the new Solid Core 3D Antenna Cluster has effectively doubled the standard range enabling contractors to work in sub-kHz regardless of any active interference.
Built-in, automated data logging
One-Touch data logging is integrated into the Mag X Display. Users can automatically record rod-by-rod data (roll, pitch and depth); review rod-wise and chart views; add and edit utility crossings; monitor projects in real-time; and generate and share reports from the UMmaps app/portal or Mag X display.
Other features
Changing the frequency and power mode downhole is a breeze thanks to the simplicity of the user interface on the Mag Series system. Once you have calibrated a frequency, you can follow the simple, on-screen instructions to perform a downhole change at any point throughout your bore.
Simply set the locator out in front of your drill and Bore-To mode will guide the drill operator to your location. Mirrored screens between the locator and remote display make communication between operators seamless, which increases the effectiveness and efficiency of drilling.
The new Echo 75XF 19-inch transmitter is the only transmitter you’ll need for any job. From drilling across 10-lane highways to drilling under heavy rebar and wire mesh, the Echo 75XF will do it all. Features include:
- 16 frequencies: sub-kHz .325 up to 41 kHz
- Three power Levels: low, 114 feet per 100 hours; medium, 180 feet per 60 hours; and high, 278 feet per 11 hours
- A diameter of 1.25 inches and length of 19 inches
The Echo 50XF 15-inch transmitter can handle anything from heavy rebar and wire mesh in concrete to river and highway crossings requiring extra power for bore-to and extreme depths. Features include:
- 16 frequencies: sub-kHz .325 up to 41 kHz
- 2 power levels: normal, 131 feet per 60 hours; and high: 164 feet per 15 hours
- A diameter of 1 1/4 inches and a length of 15 inches
