IDEAL-TEK 62-164 PRO Amplifier Probe

The IDEAL-TEK 62-164 PRO Amplifier Probe is a precision audio tracing tool designed to locate and identify wires within walls, conduits, and panels. It works by audibly amplifying the analogue signals generated by standalone or built-in tone generators, making it an essential instrument for electricians, telecoms engineers, and network installers.

Its core function is to trace, locate, and identify cables with high accuracy. The probe is compatible with a wide range of Ideal analogue tone generators, including the 62-160 PRO Tone Generator, 33-856 VDV and VDV II Testers, the TRACEone generator, and all other Ideal analogue tone units. This versatility ensures it integrates seamlessly into your existing diagnostic toolkit.

Operation is intuitive: simply press and hold the activation button to begin tracing the amplified tone signal along the cable path. The device features an adjustable volume control, allowing you to fine-tune the audio output for optimal clarity in noisy or quiet environments. A clear low battery indicator helps prevent unexpected downtime during critical tasks.

The probe is supplied ready for use with a standard 9V PP3 battery. Its compact and robust design, with dimensions of 43mm in height, 33mm in width, and 15mm in depth, makes it easy to handle and store in a tool bag or pocket. Weighing just 80 grams, it is lightweight for all-day use without causing fatigue.
