CTX 3030 Features
Multi-Purpose Metal Detector
Multi-Purpose metal detector is a versatile metal detector that fit all needs of prospectors including:
Ancient coin shooting that has been made of gold or silver or other metals Treasure detection of artifacts and ancient buried metallic objects.
Jewelry detection like golden rings, golden collars and so on.
Natural gold prospecting including detection of gold nuggets and gold veins
Detection Technologies
CTX 3030 includes multiple technologies that provide the tools necessary for the prospector in order to discover all the targets buried underground, efficiently and accurately.
The device contains the following technologies:
FBS 2 Technology:
This technology includes sending multiple-frequency electromagnetic signals or fields towards the ground to cover more and various targets at the same time under variable ground conditions with the transfer of data from the search coil to the control unit of the device to analyze the received signals
Smartfind 2 Technology:
Advanced technology to discriminate different ferrous and non-ferrous metals with accurate digital signal processing with discrimination capabilities based on the target type with variable color representation based on the buried target, which ensures an accurate result.
GPS Support
The device includes Global Positioning System tracking technology built into the device to know the exact location when searching in open places and rough terrain. By knowing the exact location, the prospector can track the locations of his discoveries and refer to them when needed, and avoid searching twice in the same place in the case of large and similar lands, as in desert areas.
The position information is displayed on the device screen with a map with tools to mark and locate search locations on the map.
Ergonomic Design
The device is characterized by a practical and attractive design suitable for searching in the fields comfortably through the design of the handle and armrest with the ability to control and adjust the length of the arm and other options for the best user experience,mAlso, the large screen located at the end of the handle provides a clear view for the user to read numbers and see indicators when conducting a search.
Waterproof
The device features a waterproof design to a depth of three meters and is therefore suitable for underwater metal detection in rivers and lakes.
Wireless Audio
One of the useful features of the prospector in the device is the wireless audio unit, where target signals can be heard without the need for wired headphones that may hinder the user during the search.
The device is equipped with wireless headphones included with the device, or audio tunes can be heard through the unit’s built-in loudspeaker.
Multi-Language Program
CTX 3030 device program is available in multiple languages, which facilitates access to the largest number of prospectors from different countries of the world.
With Ferrous (Fe) and Conductivity (Co) target resolution, plus adjustable Tone ID Profiles, you can detect (accept) the targets you want to and ignore (reject) the rest. With Target Trace and Target Separation, you can identify multiple targets simultaneously for accurate detecting results.
PC MAPPING
Upload all of your detector settings and treasure locations to your PC using the XChange 2 application. Attach photos and text to your finds, and group them into categories. View the locations on Google Maps. You can also download data to your detector for re-exploring favorite areas.
Used by evidence recovery teams to manage data in the field from your command post.
