PDF Data Sheet | Product Name | MIL-D1/DS Metal Detector |  MIL-D1/DS | Description | Portable deep search underground metal detector | Overview | The MIL-D1/DS is an EMI (electromagnetic induction) active metal detector designed to locate deeply buried materials and larger metal masses. It operates using transmission of an alternating, low-frequency magnetic field and detection of the variations introduced into this field by buried metal masses.
The detector consists of a telescopic pole with a central aluminum section and fiberglass extensions. The two probe-antennae which act as transmitter and receiver of the magnetic field are mounted at the ends of the extensions. Detection signals are provided by an audible tone and an LCD located on the front panel of the control unit.
The most significant features of the MIL D1/DS are the following:
- high sensitivity, useful for detecting metal masses at depth
- capacity for discrimination between surface metal masses and those of interest
- compensation for mineralized soils and total immunity to the effects of the terrestrial magnetic field
- high stability of its detection system, which shows no drift over time or with variations in environmental conditions
- intrinsic reliability and extremely high resistance to shock and mechanical stress, essential requirements for a long operating life
| Standard Features | - Superior detection depth
- Accurate localization
- Total immunity to terrestrial magnetic anomalies
- Static and dynamic detection, independent of the speed of transit of the detector head
- Lightweight, ergonomic search probe for maximum comfort
- Completely digital electronics, with in-the-field program memory upgrade capability
- Extremely high level of electrical and mechanical reliability
- Ease of use with minimum training time required
- Operation monitored by a microcomputer-controlled auto diagnostic system with audible warnings signals
