Marker Locator Adapter
The vLoc3-MLA (Marker Locator Adapter) is designed for easy, fast and accurate location of buried EMS markers. Once located, the MLA gives depth of cover to the marker — in dedicated marker locate mode — at the touch of a button.
The MLA clips onto the bottom of vLoc3-Pro, vLoc3-XLF, vLoc3-9800 and vLoc3-5000 receivers. Once attached and plugged in, two marker modes are enabled: a dedicated marker mode showing a peak bar graph with signal strength, marker type and depth; and a dual mode that adds the standard utility locate screen with left/right arrows and compass.
The plug-and-play MLA detects any one of nine marker types in good conditions.
