J.W. Fisher's Diver MAG 1 Metal Detector

The Diver MAG 1 is the highest performance diver-held ferrous metal detector on the market today:

The Diver MAG 1 is a top performing microprocessor driven marine magnetometer detection system with one gamma sensitivity and 1500' (457 meters) detection range. This hand-held MAG is a super sensitive detector of ferrous metal (iron/steel) that works equally well on land and underwater. The MAG will locate pipe lines, cables, cannons, dredge parts, and just about any ferrous metal object of any size. Ruggedly constructed for commercial operations, the Diver MAG 1 was designed with user friendly controls for ease of operation. Out of the water, the handle grip and included shoulder strap make the MAG easy to carry

Operator selectable cycle times (how often a reading is taken) of 2, 5, or 10 seconds allow for a strong return signal and a fast response to detect even small targets. An adjustable sensitivity switch makes pinpointing even the largest of targets extremely easy. The Diver MAG 1 features a tri-axial noise-canceling sensor that let the MAG be held in any position without affecting sensitivity or stability of the readout. The readout is displayed on an easy to see 5 digits LED for murky water or night operations. In addition, an audio output allows the diver to operate the system without the need to watch the LED display. Easy to maneuver with operator adjustable buoyancy, the Diver MAG 1 can be used anywhere in the world.

Power is supplied by an internal 12-volt rechargeable battery that will last for two continuous hours at the 5 second cycle time. Increase the operating time by using the optional belt mounted spare battery pack. The included battery charger connects to any 120 ac voltage source (220 ac charger is optional).

The Diver MAG 1 is constructed of corrosion proof urethane and PVC to give many years of trouble free performance comes with a carry case and is depth rated to 200' (60 meters). Modular construction allows for easy field repair, should it ever be necessary. At the rear electronics housing is the Control Panel. On this panel are all the necessary controls and indicators for operation of the system. The switches and indicators are:
Readout
A five-digit LED readout that displays the gamma reading. The readout is illuminated which makes it easy to see in murky water or at night.
Sensitivity Switch
A four position switch allows the sensitivity to be reduced once a target area is located. The target can then be easily pinpointed.
Cycle Time
A three position switch is used to select a cycle time of 2, 5, or 10 seconds. This switch controls how often a reading is taken. The 2 second time is used when looking for small targets. The longer cycle times can be used to extend the battery life.
Audio Adjust
A control knob adjusts the audio frequency in the earphone. When a target is detected the frequency shifts indicating the presence of ferrous metal.
Earphone Connector
Land or underwater earphones can be connected to the Diver Mag 1.
Low Battery Indicator
An LED that illuminates when the battery needs recharging.
Leak Indicator
An LED that illuminates if any moisture enters the electronics housings. An audio alarm will also sound. The complete system comes with an owner's manual.
