Product catalog summary
Overview: The Testboy 26 is a cable detector designed to facilitate the detection of cables within walls and cable ducts. Its detection capability varies based on the wall's composition, such as brick, plaster, or concrete.
Features and Benefits:
  • Includes a lined case with a belt loop for safe and reliable transportation.
  • Offers a 5-year manufacturer’s warranty.
  • Certified by TÜV/GS and complies with IEC/EN 61010-1 and DIN VDE 0411 standards.
  • Voltage proofed up to 400V.
Functionality: The device uses a carrier signal from the transmitter, modulated via alligator clips or a modular connector, to locate the other end of a cable precisely with the receiver. This process does not require contact or insulation stripping. It can accurately identify single two-core cables, commonly used in telecommunications.
Additional Features:
  • Equipped with a socket for earphones, suitable for noisy environments.
  • Receiver sensitivity is infinitely adjustable.
  • Transmitter can emit either a continuous or alternating tone.
  • Integrated continuity tester for quick and reliable short-circuit detection.
Technical Specifications:
  • Display: Acoustical
  • Power Supply: 2x 9V batteries
  • Dimensions: Receiver - 230 x 55 x 23 mm; Generator - 55 x 57 x 23 mm
  • Overvoltage Protection: 400V
  • Weight: 244g
  • Color: Red/black, with other colors available upon request
Scope of Delivery: The package includes operating instructions, one generator, one receiver, and two 9V block batteries.

Catalog excerpts

Testboy 26-1

The Testboy 26 is a cable detector that simplifies searching for cables in walls and cable ducts. The depth to which the Testboy 26 can detect depends on the composition of the wall (for example, brick, plaster, concrete). A lined case with belt loop is included in the range of supply. It is suitable for reliably and safely transporting both devices. Your advantages: | 5 years manufacturer’s warranty | TÜV / GS tested and approved | IEC/EN 61010-1, DIN VDE 0411 | Voltage proofed up to 400V A carrier signal from the transmitter is modulated either by means of the alligator clips or the modular connector to one end of the cable. This allows the other end of the cable to be found quickly and precisely with the receiver without contact or having to strip the insulation of the cable. The Testboy 26 can exactly identify the single two-core cable (for example in telecommunications technology). As well as being equipped with a socket for earphones for working in loud surroundings, the sensitivity of the easy-to-use receiver is infinitely adjustable. The transmitter can optionally transmit either a continuous or alternating tone. The integrated continuity tester detects short-circuits quickly and reliably.
