- Hound 3 Inductive Amplifier (Probe)
-
The Hound 3 is a battery operated handheld lightweight Probe, with a thumbwheel Sensitivity control and Signal Strength indicator LED. It improves on previous designs with built-in LED headlights to illuminate dark areas and reduce fluorescent light noise, a bandpass filter to suppress unwanted frequencies, an earphone jack for noisy or quiet work areas, and an easy access battery cover.

Adjustable Sensitivity and Loudness Control
The Hound 3 identifies Fox 2's tracer tone up to 12 inches away with a thumbwheel sensitivity control. Reduce and increase the loudness based on the surroundings (high acoustic noise, quiet office environments) for effective and unobtrusive testing.
Filter Out 60Hz Noise
Although the Fox 2 is not affected by 60Hz noise, the Hound 3 will pick it up and amplify it. A bypass filter is built in to suppress the humming and buzzing usually associated with 60Hz noise while improving sensitivity to the Fox 2 Toner.
Built-In Signal Strength Indicator and Headlight
A bright red LED signal strength indicator maintains sensitivity, even when an earphone is used. A built-in headlight allows you to illuminate dark areas and reduce fluorescent light noise interference with the press of a button.
Built-In Signal Strength Indicator and Headlight
The Hound 3 features a rugged and moisture-resistant 1.5-inch Mylar cone speaker with a high strength alnico magnet. For quiet or noisy environments, the Hound 3 accepts earphones with a standard 1/8-inch (3.5 millimeter) mini phone plug in either mono or stereo. Earphones with shielded wires are recommended to reduce the possibility of feedback from the cable to the probe tip.
