GA-52Cx Magnetic Locator

Metal and Magnetic Locators

The GA-52Cx Locator detects the magnetic field of iron and steel objects, with unmatched sensitivity.


Only two Controls! Designed for one-hand operations, the On/Off-Sensitivity and Volume controls are located on the underside of the cover. This provides easy access, protects the knobs and contributes to their overall ruggedness and dependability.
 

High Sensitivity with 5 Levels

​​​Our HeliFlux sensors provide high sensitivity allowing Schonstedt products to detect products down to a depth of 5.5m / 18’

Speaker Audio Output + Headphones

Approximately 40 Hz idle tone in speaker. Tone frequency increases (or decreases) with gradient-field intensity

No response to aluminum, brass, or copper

​​​​​Eliminates false locates

HeliFlux® sensors

Schonstedt’s unique, patented HeliFlux magnetic field sensors provide much higher sensitivity than the standard ring core sensors that most of the competition uses, giving users of Schonstedt products a clear advantage when searching for deeply buried objects and when wanting to pinpoint the exact shape

Modular construction; high performance components

​​​​​​The design and construction of our magnetic locators make them that rare combination of high performance, rugged and also straightforward to maintain and repair, leading to low overall total cost of ownership

Hard case

​​​​Protects the locator from knocks and scrapes when not in use and stored in equipment vans or trucks

7-year warranty

​​​​Users of Schonstedt products can be confident in the low total cost of ownership of their purchases because they are supported by a 7 year warranty. Some competitors offer 2 or more, but most only provide 1-year coverage
