3M™ EMS Marker Balls
The 3M Ball Marker makes the job of precisely locating underground facilities easier. The 3M EMS Ball Markers have a unique self-levelling design that provides an accurate, horizontal position regardless of how the ball is placed in the ground.
They have a range of up to 1.5 metres from marker to locator and can be accurately located using a 3M Dynatel™ Locator. Smart technology use of a well established radio frequency application.
Features
- Using EMS Markers during construction, installation and maintenance virtually eliminates the time consuming search for hard-to-locate facilities
- High accuracy – mis-locates are significantly reduced
- Long lasting passive antenna encased in waterproof shell helps identify underground facilities for years to come
- The water-resistant polyethylene shells are impervious to minerals, chemicals and the temperature extremes normally found underground
- All markers function without the need for an external power source
- Frequency and colour coded helps to identify the specific utility – Water, Gas, Power, Sewer, Recycled water or Communications
- Operating temperature spans from -20 to 50⁰C
3M iD Markers can be customized to include customer-specific information such as facility data, type of application, material type, size and placement date.
