Here is a third-generation proton magnetometer with a top performing, micro-processor-driven detection system. Proton magnetometers are the ultimate detectors for ferrous metals such as iron and steel, and are not affected by non-ferrous metals. At a one gamma sensitivity, the Proton 4 is at the maximum usable sensitivity for a towed magnetometer. And with its two second cycle time it gives a strong return signal, fast enough to detect even small iron/steel targets. The Basic unit comes with control box, 150 ft cable and a 300 ft. optional cable, and a fish. The Proton 4 fish can be towed at any depth, at speeds up to 10 mph. The optional printer allows Gammas and Loran/GPS coordinates can be printed out for a permanent record.
