Detection Principles and Capabilities
The Super Scanner™ V is an active hand-held
metal detector with very high sensitivity to all
metals including ferrous, nonferrous and stain-
less steel. Detection and alarming takes place
when the instrument is passed in close proximity
to metal objects. Detection range is dependent
upon the size and conductivity of the metal ob-
ject. The larger the object, the greater the detec-
tion distance.
The Super Scanner™ V is factory preset to max-
imum sensitivity with no operator adjustments
required. This ensures that the detector will be
used at the proper operating level established for
the particular security need.
Should nearby metal objects (floor rebar, metal
walls or cell bars) cause interference to the scan-
ning process, an Interference Elimination Button
is available to momentarily reduce sensitivity so
as to ignore the interfering nearby metal and per-
mit precise scanning of the individual or object
being scanned.
When metal objects are encountered, a sharp
