Description
- Optimized ergonomics for long-term operation in military demining and humanitarian mine clearance
- High sensitivity combined with high-efficiency soil compensation
- Flexible application optimization thanks to exchangeable search coils
- Easily noticeable metal alarm indication (audio/visual/vibration)
- Button operated pinpoint function
The VMH3CS metal detector has been developed especially for professional mine clearance as part of military and humanitarian assignments. It has been proven to be a highly reliable and mechanically rugged tool for a wide variety of tasks around the globe. This is especially true of use in highly mineralized soils.

Its mechanical design guarantees low-fatigue work, even during assignments lasting several hours. The VMH3CS can also be optimized through exchangeable search coils for various detection scenarios.
