Voltek NS 

The Voltek NS detects the presence of nearby overhead power lines by sensing the E-field produced by the power line. The system simply and easily interacts with the equipment operator to avoid dangerous contact.

The Voltek NS can be integrated with either the E-stop or hydraulic systems of your machinery to stop the movement of your equipment or shut it down entirely-if too close to a power line. The sensitivity of the Voltek NS is adjustable to accommodate practically and job-site or situation.

Overhead power lines produce an electric field (E-field). The strength of the E-field is largely dependent upon the voltage of the power line and the distance from the power line. The higher the voltage-the stronger and larger the E-field surrounding the line. The Voltek NS measures the relative strength of the E-field and translating that data into usable information for the operator.

Features include:

• Detects 50Hz (foreign) and 60Hz (domestic) overhead power lines greater than 2500V
• Intuitive user interface
• Backlit display
• IP67 rated enclosure (dust and water proof)
• Operates on 12-24V 
• Adjustable sensitivity
• 120db external alarm
• Uses a wire antenna running the length of your boom to detect power lines (lengths available from 15-200′-trim to desired length)
• Best suited for fixed boom/mast machinery (non-telescopic)
