Mitchell MITHD9 AC Hotstick Voltage Detector
For First Responders, Police, and Firefighters
Stay safe on every scene with the Mitchell MITHD9 AC Hotstick Voltage Detector — a critical tool for detecting dangerous electrical voltages before they become a threat. Designed specifically for emergency personnel, the AC Hotstick provides early audible (beeping) and visual (flashing LED) warnings of AC voltage presence without requiring contact with the energized surface.
The closer you are to the source, the faster it beeps and flashes—giving you a clear, instant indication of potential danger.
Key Features:
- Non-Contact Detection: Detects dangerous voltages without touching the source.
- Audible & Visual Alerts: Increasing beep rate and LED flash intensity as proximity to voltage increases.
- Three Sensitivity Settings:
- High Sensitivity: Detects AC from the greatest distance.
- Low Sensitivity: Reduces interference to help locate the voltage source.
- Front Focused Mode: Directional sensing for pinpoint accuracy—ideal in cluttered environments or near overhead lines.
- High Sensitivity AC Amplifier: Detects standard 50/60Hz AC voltages above 100Vac.
- 21" Length: Keeps users safely distanced from live lines and energized environments.
- Built for the Field: IP66 rated for dust and water resistance; rugged design meets EN61326-1 compliance.
Applications:
- Verify power shutdowns, lockout/tagout, and disconnects.
- Locate hidden AC sources safely and efficiently.
- Identify back feeds from generators and energized pools of water.
- Confirm downed power lines are safe for rescue operations.
A safe, simple, and essential tool for firefighters, law enforcement, and emergency response teams.
⚠️ Note: Not for use on any shielded high-voltage underground cable.
