Ground Search Detectors

The WD10 is a Passive system and is compatible with most Electronic Counter Measures equipment (users responsible for own compatibility testing). The unit is self-testing and self-calibrating, is weather proof and the probe assembly is capable of being immersed in water.

The WD10 is easy to operate having simple controls for power, sensitivity and volume with a push button zero control for pin-pointing targets.

The WD10 employs sophisticated digital detection, the advanced micro-controller design performs power management functions and continuous background diagnostics.
