Metal Detectors - MD2000

The MD2000 is a handheld metal detecting set can be deployed in support of a wide range of operations; including EOD, IEDD, Search and Demining.. It is particularly suitable for police search operations and is the preferred metal detector of most UK police forces.MD2000 is the original multi-role, man portable instrument for the detection of ferrous and non-ferrous objects.

The MD2000 equipment in standard, full pack form is supplied with search probes in addition to the conventional search halo. A short pack form may be specified in which the probes are omitted.
The equipment operates on the pulse induction principle and is extremely versatile. Recent substantial upgrades have improved still further the excellent sensitivity, particularly to the minimum metal targets.

The MD2000 is very easy to operate, being completely automatic in operation and requiring no tuning for differing ground condition. The search heads can be operated immersed when in water with no adjustment.

The full field pack is supplied comprehensively equipped with two search probes, a search halo, loudspeaker and earpiece audio device, control unit and battery pack, all housed in a cordura case.

A short pack option may be specified which is supplied with the search halo only and is packed into a backpack style soft case. A transit case may also be specified as an option.

The MD2000 can be operated on dry-cells or rechargeable batteries.

The MD2000 is NATO codified.
