Fluke, a Fortive subsidiary, launched the SmartTrace 2082 Series of underground locators that integrates with ProStar’s PointMan platform for mapping and documenting underground assets. Fluke said SmartTrace provides information on the location, depth and path of underground cables and pipes, and can identify faults such as ground faults and coating defects. Fluke said SmartTrace can inject signals to locate assets up to 6 meters deep and connects to the PointMan app via Bluetooth. Vineet Thuvara, Fluke’s chief product officer, cited Common Ground Alliance data estimating 400,000 to 800,000 utility strikes annually in the U.S. Page Tucker, ProStar’s CEO, said the companies are working together on integrating locating hardware with utility mapping software.
