Electronic Marking - Three top applicationsConstruction AccessPoints that need to be accessed for future construction / facilityexpansion needs eg service stub connection points.MaintenancePoints needed for future maintenanceDamage AvoidanceIndicate presence of key infrastructure e.g. non conductive plasticpipes or fibre optic cables, or the location of a lateral or tee wherethe direction of the facility may change or branch out.4
3M offer two types of electronic markers3M EMS markersIdentifies type of underground facility - Power, Telephone,Water, Gas, Waste water, CATV, General Purpose.Each marker responds at different frequency.Tells locator ‘here I am’ plus ‘I am xyz utility’ e.g. water, power.3M iD markersContains microchip.Provide same feedback as EMS marker plus ‘what I am’ asset and owner specific information - eg branch splice,conduit stub, owned by ABC organisation.5
3M EMS Markers – How they workEMS Markers contain a coil,tuned to a specific frequency.The specific frequency isunique to the utility it marks.6
3M EMS Markers – PlacementPlaced on top of facility during construction, repair ormaintenance.3M have recommend guidelines on placementEngineered for narrow trenchapplications up to 1.5m in depth.Ball markers have a unique, patentedself-levelling feature that ensures anaccurate, horizontal position regardless ofhow it is placed in the ground.7Warranted for life of utility.
Finding EMS MarkersUser selects particular utility eg power,telephone, gas etc and sweeps area.The locator emits the utility’s uniquefrequency (eg Power).Locator frequency energises the EMSmarker coil in the power markers.It detects the power marker’s ‘reflection’of that signal.Strong ‘reflection’ means closeproximity to marker.8

We want to break down the different types of marking that is accomplished with a 1064nm fiber laser and specific applications to those types of marking. Fiber marking systems can mark or "laser etch" many different materials such as metals, plastics, and ceramics, all in contrast. Contrast marking is the discoloration of any material
marking, continuous ink jet printing, dot peening and electrochemical etching. When comparing these marking technologies, it is important to focus on the material to be marked, the flexibility of the process, cost factors, speed, throughput and opportunity for automation of the marking process. DPM can be used on a wide variety of materials,
GENERAL MARKING ADVICE: Accounting Higher Solutions. The marking schemes are written to assist in determining the “minimal acceptable answer” rather than listing every possible correct and incorrect answer. The following notes are offered to support Markers in making judgements on candidates’ evidence, and apply to marking both end of unit assessments and course assessments. Page 3 .
