Manufactured by the renowned AKA company, this device is engineered to excel in diverse environments, offering unparalleled detection capabilities and user-friendly features.

Key Features and Specifications

1. Pulse Induction Technology: The Selenium MFD operates using advanced pulse induction (PI) technology, which significantly enhances its ability to detect metal objects at great depths. This technology allows for the use of larger and more versatile search coils, increasing the detection range and efficiency.
2. Dual Frequency Operation: This metal detector supports dual-frequency operation, making it adaptable to various soil conditions and types of targets. The frequencies range from 100Hz to 1kHz, ensuring optimal performance in both mineral-rich and low-conductive soils.
3. Robust Build and Design: The device features a rugged design with additional dust and moisture protection, making it suitable for harsh outdoor conditions. It is lightweight, approximately 1.2 kg without the search coil, and comes with a comprehensive set of accessories for enhanced usability.
4. Advanced Detection Algorithms: Equipped with four independent detection algorithms, the Selenium MFD is capable of:
   • Deep Mode: Ideal for detecting large objects buried deep underground.
   • Mineral Mode: Effective in distinguishing small metallic objects and eliminating interference from iron-rich minerals.
   • Sample Mode: Adjusts to soil conditions with high ground effects, ensuring stable performance.
   • Urban Mode: Optimized for urban environments with high metal pollution.
5. User-Friendly Interface: The device features a simplified control panel with four main controls, making it accessible even for beginners. The audio and visual indicators provide clear feedback, helping users to precisely locate buried objects.
6. Comprehensive Search Coil Options: The Selenium MFD is compatible with a variety of search coils produced by AKA, including the standard 1m x 1m coil, a 17-inch mono coil, and specialized coils for different search scenarios. These coils are waterproof, allowing for use in shallow water environments.
7. Automatic Ground Balancing: The updated ground balance system ensures that the device adjusts automatically to different soil conditions, providing accurate readings and stable operation.
8. Versatile Detection Capabilities: The metal detector can discriminate between different types of metals, including gold, silver, copper, and various alloys. It features both automatic and manual discrimination modes, allowing users to fine-tune the device based on their specific search needs.

Practical Applications

• Archeological Exploration: Ideal for uncovering historical artifacts and treasures buried deep underground.
• Treasure Hunting: Perfect for hobbyists and professionals seeking valuable metals in diverse terrains.
• Industrial Applications: Useful in locating buried utility lines and infrastructure components.
• Environmental Surveys: Can be employed in environmental studies to detect and identify metallic contaminants.

Safety and Usage Guidelines

• Hazardous Materials: Exercise caution when detecting large metal objects, as they may include unexploded ordnance or hazardous materials. Always approach such finds with care and consider contacting local authorities.
• Legal Compliance: Ensure compliance with local laws and regulations regarding metal detection and the recovery of found objects.
• Health Precautions: Due to the intensive magnetic fields produced, individuals with pacemakers should avoid close proximity to the search coil during operation.
