How does the RD312 automatically adjust sensitivity when detecting ferrous materials?

The RD312 uses advanced technology to automatically adjust its sensitivity, ensuring reliable detection of ferrous materials even in varying and challenging site conditions. Its real-time calibration protects against both missed detections and false positives, allowing professionals to effectively locate underground metallic infrastructure.

Automatic Sensitivity Adjustment in RD312: Technical Insights

The RD312 detector is engineered to simplify the detection of ferrous materials such as iron pipes, steel cables, or covers. Its automatic sensitivity setting relies on digital signal processing, which continuously analyses the electromagnetic response from the environment. The instrument adapts to soil conductivity, material type, and background interference, minimizing user input while optimizing accuracy. This is especially valuable on complex European job sites where consistency is critical.

For enhanced safety and productivity, the RD312 performs real-time feedback adjustments, reducing signal gain when strong responses are detected and increasing it for weaker or deeply buried objects. This intelligent response ensures detection even in cluttered underground environments, much like the compact and precise Vscan M cable and metal detector.

The device is ideal for public works, construction, and utility maintenance professionals who often face unpredictable conditions. Regular maintenance and calibration are recommended to maintain accuracy, in the same way as with other equipment presented in the detection and inspection range at MeasureTools.

Can the RD312 distinguish between different types of metals?

While the RD312 excels at detecting ferrous materials, it is optimized for iron-rich objects and may not differentiate between various ferrous alloys. For non-ferrous or multi-material detection requirements, specialised detectors are available.
