OKM eXp 5500 Professional Metal Detector – Advanced Multi-Technology 3D Ground Scanner
The OKM eXp 5500 Professional Metal Detector is a high-performance 3D ground scanner designed for professional treasure hunters, archaeologists, and gold prospectors. Combining VLF metal detection with advanced 3D ground scanning technology, it delivers precise measurements for both shallow and deep underground objects, structures, and valuable metal artifacts.
PentaSense Multi-Sensor System for Maximum Coverage
The PentaSense System integrates 10 sensors functioning as 5 Super Sensors side by side, providing high-resolution measurements across wide scanning fields. This advanced multi-sensor configuration allows users to efficiently scan large areas without sacrificing accuracy, making it ideal for vast fields, deserts, or mountainous terrains.
Ergonomic PentaSense Rod for Comfortable Scanning
The PentaSense Rod enables ergonomic handling of the probe, allowing users to maintain optimal scanning balance even on sloped or uneven terrain. By keeping a proper distance between the detectorist and the probe, the system minimizes interference and delivers clearer, more precise scan results.
Flexible Sensor Configurations
The eXp 5500 Professional offers flexible scanning setups with the Super Sensor and up to four Enhancers:
-
Single Super Sensor: Ideal for narrow areas like caves, crevices, and passages.
-
Three-Sensor Setup: Connect two Enhancers on one side for medium-width scanning fields.
-
Full PentaSense System: All four Enhancers connected to the Super Sensor for scanning wide areas with five pairs of sensors simultaneously.
Advanced VLF Metal Detection
The VLF (Very Low Frequency) technology detects metal objects near the surface, including coins, jewelry, relics, and small artifacts. The electromagnetic field emitted by the VLF coil induces currents in buried metals, allowing the detector to pick up even subtle signals from valuable objects.
Precise Metal Discrimination
The eXp 5500 Professional features advanced metal discrimination, enabling users to distinguish gold and silver from iron or bronze artifacts. This enhances efficiency during treasure hunts, archaeological surveys, or gold prospecting by focusing only on valuable targets.
