The method of testing metal detectors depends on the type of its function, for example, a magnetic metal detector such as a pulsed metal detector or VLF or TR should be tested in a movement method to detect metals or gold in depth in order to determine the ability and method of determining ground settings and balance. Obtain the conditions that create stability in the magnetic detector.
The frequency finder should be practiced and tested with metals and gold at the surface and depth by determining the VDE number and the surface and volume threshold.
Any type of detector system of the frequency or magnetic category, when it can find targets or metals during testing at the surface and depth, has determined its operational ability and work in the main work scene with the familiarity that the operator or user has obtained during training. It must be done.
One of the most important things in buying devices is metal detector testing, which has important tips about testing devices, stay with us to learn more about this.
Metal detector test in normal air
Hang the loop of the device from a tree, place different metals of different sizes and materials around you, then turn on the device and wait for some time until it adapts to the ambient temperature and balance the device and start testing different metals. You zoom in from far away.
Also, if your device has separation capability, test the metal separation mode to get familiar with the device’s noise and its error. Also, for scanning, do this test many times to familiarize yourself with the operation and noise of the complete device.
Underground metal detector test
You can choose a rock and place the loop above the rock and the metal under the rock and test, or choose a 20 x 20 metal and place it in front of the loop, suppose it senses at a distance of 1.5 meters; In the next step, dig holes with a depth of 1.2 or 1.3 meters and place the metal, and then try with the device to see the reaction of the device and the correctness of the work process.
Is home metal detector testing wrong?
As written in the catalog of the device, metal detectors are made for ancient areas that are free of any metal, and it should be avoided to turn on and test it inside areas that have metal and frequency equipment.
Therefore, it is impossible to test the metal detector in your apartment house, in such a way that the loop is placed on the floor and the metal is placed on the lower floor.
So be aware of this to test the metal detector, start testing in an environment that is free of any metal, even small.
Therefore, when you buy a device for ground testing, find a garden or a garden that is free in the environment and does not contain metal.
What is the best way to test a metal detector?
All tests have their weaknesses and the best test for the test device is in the place where you want to use that device and you are looking for the target, and if for example you test the device in a rocky environment and take it in a place with layers of particles It is different, use it, the possibility of error will be high, so in general, the best test is a test that is done in your own area and land.
