MINEX 4.611

Minimum metal, wire and conductivity detector

Precise detection of near-surface objects. The MINEX 4.611 is designed to detect very small near-surface metal objects, so-called minimum metal mines or plastic mines. Parallel, at the same time, it detects conductive targets such as components of IEDs as well as any kind of wires. It offers maximum sensitivity and best possible pinpointing of targets while still providing robustness and reliability in any conditions.

A ground learning function for operation on uncooperative soil and a military mode that turns off the LED indicators for safe night operations. These are only two of the vital features available. The MINEX 4.611 comes in a rugged hardcase and can be equipped with accessories according to the customer’s needs. Commonly, individual packages are defined and delivered.

Product highlights

Your advantages at a glance

  • Digital dual frequency continuous wave technology: Ensures maximum sensitivity for detecting metals, wires and conductive materials.
  • Double-D search coil: Two different signals for precise pinpointing and close detection near large metal structures such as fences, railway tracks and cars.
  • Different senses for precise working: Audible and visual signals in combination with a vibration alarm on the handle help and simplify detection.
  • Easy to operate: Nine sensitivity ranges, for precise adjustments. All control and display elements are integrated into the handle. Visual display with 14 LEDs that can be switched off in military mode.
  • No disturbance and influence: No disturbance by high power lines. No influence on the detection depth by wet soil.
  • Adapts to all circumstances: Fast individual ground learning and a noice-cancelling function for non-cooperative soil conditions.
  • Safe to use: Integrated function test of all control and display elements inclusive malfunction alarm and low battery signal. An additional supervisor mode is available.
  • Optional equipment: Headphone, carrying strap, rechargeable batteries and charger, soft case
