Model 505 "GO-FER"
Pipe & Cable
Locator
by Detectron Division of Tinker & Rasor

Durable Construction
The "GO-FER" is housed in rugged, indestructible
Cycolac cases and has injection-molded instrument panels for added strength. All
electronic components are mounted on a single detachable circuit board for quick and easy
maintenance. In addition, convenient battery access is made through removable doors on the
transmitter and receiver. Both cases and circuitry are designed to tolerate the most
extreme field temperatures, and make the "GO-FER" ideal for use in any
environment.
Quartz Crystal Precision
The all new Detectron "GO-FER" locates buried
metal structures with smooth accuracy and ease. Its quartz crystal controlled transmitter
fine-tunes the signal for precise location every time. And when it comes to tracing
distance, depth penetration, and sensitivity, the Model 505 rivals all other pipe and
cable locators on the Market. The "GO-FER" can reach depths as great as 20 feet,
and tracing distances of 1,000 feet are not uncommon.

Improved Controls
The "GO-FER"s radio frequency receiver allows it to screen
out distracting noise while it simultaneously detects cables and pipes with assured
precision. The "GO-FER" is also the first locator of its kind to have a separate
volume control for reducing signal loudness without sacrificing sensitivity. This feature
enables quieter operation in enclosed areas where lower volume is desired. As in other
Tinker & Rasor null-detecting locators, a null in the tone is detected as the pipe is
crossed.
Quality Accessories
Model 505 comes complete with a ground plate / connecting
cable and full operating instructions - ready to use! Also available are cushioned
earphones, three-part handle, carrying strap, and a sturdy compartmented carrying case. In
addition, this prestigious new instrument comes with the Detectron reputation for quality,
dependability, and service!
Batteries
The Detectron Model 505 "GO-FER" uses Two Sets of
(6) six "C" cell alkaline batteries. One set of batteries for the transmitter
and one set for the receiver. Shipped with batteries, ready to operate. Batteries are
exchanged in seconds through external quick release doors.
