Metal Detector Information - Uses

For Airports, Law Enforcement, Schools, Courthouses, Corrections, Loss Prevention

Metal Detector information reveals the proven dependability, ease of operation, and durability of Garrett's Super Scanner. This hand held metal detector is the metal detector most demanded by police and all other security officers. Press a switch and precise automatic circuitry detects every concealed metallic item - knives and guns to handcuff keys, foil-wrapped drugs, and tiny jewelry or electronic components. Large surfaces permit quick and thorough scanning.

Simplicity of operation of this metal detector is unmatched. Because no tuning or other adjustments are ever necessary or even possible, maximum sensitivity of the instrument can never be compromised, either "accidentally" or otherwise. Yet a Reduced Sensitivity mode is available - with a pressure switch - for scanning near rebar floors or other ambient metal. An audible alarm and a visual signal indicate detection of any metal, but an earphone is available is "silent scanning" is desired.

The Super Scanner's 9v battery, included with the detector, stands up to long hours of use. It can be quickly changed without tools. An optional rechargeable battery kit featuring a Ni-MH battery is available.

The Olympic Games demand the best, and the Super Scanner metal detector has been their choice since 1984. Countless thousands of hours of field use have proven the dependability and ease of operation of the Super Scanner. It is rugged and functions with complete safety to wearers of pacemakers or other implanted medical devices. The Super Scanner is engineered and manufactured in the USA.
