Metal detectors create an electromagnetic (EM) field around the coil, which penetrates the ground. Because metal is conductive it causes a change in this field. The detector senses this change through the coil and sends a signal back to the control box, alerting the operator. Metal detectors can determine the size, shape and composition of metallic objects beneath the coil. Typically, the larger the object, the easier it is to detect. A metal detector’s EM operating frequencies are measured in kilohertz (kHz). Low frequency EM fields (e.g. 1.5kHz) penetrate the ground deeply, but sensitivity to smaller targets is low. High frequency EM fields (e.g. 65kHz) have a shallower depth of penetration, but sensitivity to small targets is high. Safari’s multiple frequency operation provides the advantage of both; good depth and high sensitivity.

Full Band Spectrum (FBS) Most detectors on the market operate on a single or dual frequency, ranging from 1 to 70 kilohertz (kHz). Although this technology has served the industry well for years, Minelab found that a frequency that worked well in one area would often offer only marginal performance when used in another location. Ground mineralisation, trash content and target size all had an impact on how effectively a detector transmitting a single frequency would operate. FBS technology combines Minelab’s multiple frequency BBS (Broad Band Spectrum) technology with a powerful new microprocessor to give: • Greater detecting depth • High sensitivity over a wide range of targets • Less interference from electromagnetic sources • More accurate identification of target characteristics The FBS circuit automatically transmits multiple frequencies simultaneously. This increased frequency range means that the signal received from the detector coil is analysed from a wide range of responses. This allows Safari to analyse more target information so that the target identification (ID) is more accurate. Minelab’s unique FBS technology means deep, sensitive, accurate detecting. Discrimination (Disc.) Discrimination is the ability of a metal detector to identify your desired targets (e.g. coins and jewellery) and eliminate signals from undesirable material (e.g. nails). Safari can be programmed in a number of ways to discriminate against unwanted targets in different types of ground. Ground Compensation Safari uses a sophisticated approach for the elimination of ground mineralisation effects. It uses advanced digital filtering to eliminate the influence of ground signals. This is achieved automatically, allowing you to concentrate on detecting targets.

Here are the main technology highlights of the Minelab Safari metal detector:
