Introduction
The DigiTrak® Falcon F5+ stands as a revolutionary HDD locator and directional drill locator, engineered to redefine precision and efficiency in horizontal directional drilling (HDD) projects. As a flagship offering in the DigiTrak product line, this HDD tracker combines advanced technology with user-centric design, making it an indispensable tool for contractors worldwide.
Features
- Unmatched Frequency Range: Packed with over 1000 frequencies, the Falcon F5+ scans and selects the optimal signals for your job site, ensuring reliability even in interference-prone environments (like near cell towers or traffic loops). It supports dual-band drilling and mid-bore frequency switching, a game-changer for complex HDD projects.
- Deep Tracking Capabilities: With a transmitter depth range of up to 180ft (55m) and data range of up to 220ft (67m), this HDD locator delivers exceptional depth performance. Whether drilling deep boreholes or navigating shallow terrain, the DigiTrak F5+ provides consistent, accurate readings.
- Industry-Exclusive Technology: Leverage the Sub-k® Rebar transmitter to drill confidently under reinforced concrete—an exclusive feature that sets the DigiTrak Falcon F5+ apart from standard HDD trackers. Plus, real-time downhole fluid pressure monitoring reduces the risk of unexpected returns.
- User-Friendly & Efficient: Built for ease of use, the Falcon F5+ offers quick scan pairing (two clicks to sync custom frequencies), multi-power modes for extended battery life, and compatibility with DigiTrak’s intuitive LWD App for as-built report generation. Its 30+ years of industry-leading usability means faster training, setup, and more jobs completed on time.
Compatible Components
This DigiTrak Falcon F5+ HDD tracker is engineered for versatility, with broad compatibility and long-lasting power performance:
· Compatible Transmitters: FTSXLP, FTSLp, FTSp, FTRSLp, FTR5p, FTR5s
· Compatible Receiver Batteries: Lithium-Ion FBP and NiMH SBP
· Receiver Battery Life³: Up to 12 hrs (Obtainable with Falcon Battery Pack (FBP))
· Compatible Remote Displays: Aurora and FCD
· Telemetry Range⁴: Up to 3000ft (914m) (Obtainable with Aurora remote display and Yagi Antenna)
Using 25 frequencies simultaneously allows you to get the job done the first time, while the competition is limited to using only one frequency at a time while drilling.
Multi-Power Modes for Different Drilling Scenarios
Choose the right mode to balance depth performance and battery life based on your specific drilling needs:
| Hours | Depth range | Data range | ||
| Drilling Deep? Use High Power Mode. |
15″ | 14 | 125ft | 160ft |
| 19″ | 14 | 160ft | 200ft | |
| 24″ | 14 | 180ft | 220ft | |
| Drilling? Use Standard Mode. |
15″ | 80 | 100ft | 125ft |
| 19″ | 40 | 125ft | 150ft | |
| 24″ | 40 | 160ft | 185ft | |
| Drilling Shallow? Use Low Power Mode. |
15″ | 140 | 65ft | 80ft |
| 19″ | 120 | 100ft | 125ft | |
| 24″ | 120 | 120ft | 140ft |
Tips:Actual ranges and battery life will vary based on interference, transmitter housing, frequency and other factors.
