Suparule 600 Cable Height Meter
The Suparule 600 Cable Height Meter helps teams check overhead cable height from the ground. It measures without contact, so users do not need ladders, poles or direct access to live cables. This makes it useful for safer work around power, telecoms and site services.
Operators can measure up to six overhead wires in one reading. As a result, the unit suits cable bundles where fast checks are needed. It can measure 25 mm cables up to 75 ft, which is about 23 metres.
Fast overhead cable checks
Using ultrasonic signals, the device sends a sound wave towards the lowest wire. It then calculates the return time and shows the cable height. This simple method helps reduce guesswork during clearance checks.
The Suparule 600 Cable Height Meter is suited to telephone lines, power distribution lines, cable TV installs and street lighting work. In addition, it can help with road, rail and construction clearance checks. The handheld design keeps the process quick and practical in the field.
Designed for safe field use
Because the tool works from below the cables, users can stay clear of high voltage lines. The 3-button layout also keeps operation simple, with ON, MEASURE and SCAN controls. Therefore, teams can take routine readings with little training.
The Suparule 600 Cable Height Meter is compact, portable and maintenance-free. It weighs 0.5 kg and measures 205 mm x 100 mm x 70 mm, so it is easy to carry between jobs. With a 2-year warranty and long battery life, it offers reliable support for regular cable height measurement.
