Overview & Features
MAGNEX 130B Underwater Magnetometer
The MAGNEX® 130 B underwater magnetometer is used for
the location of magnetic anomalies in the earth's magnetic
fi eld as caused by ferrous metal objects that are hidden underground
or in the seabed.
In comparison with other UW magnetometers on the market,
the MAGNEX® 130 B captivates with its low weight, robustness
and simple operability.
Main Features
- Ergonomic design
- Robust, compact, able to be taken apart
- Simple to use
- Can be used in saltwater
- Optical/audio indication
- 3 detection modes: dynamic, quasi-static, static
Mode of operation
The MAGNEX® 130 B works by means of the Pulse
Induction Principle (PI). The reading of interference due to conductive
saltwater or ground is excluded. A selection of object size is possible.
Local interference or unwanted signals from small metal scrap i.e.
nails or short wires can be strongly reduced by tuning of internal
adjusters. The advantages are apparently!
Constructional features
The MAGNEX® 130 B consists of a search head joint to the detector handle containing the detector
electronics. For normal land use or for working in underwater vegetation
an extension rod can be screwed between search head and electronic
cylinder.
The detector is switched into operation by rotating the
handle by 180° in clockwise direction. The ear shell can be removed from
the waterproof headset to suit operation with a dry diving suit.The
sensitivity adjuster ring allows to tune the audio threshold.

unauthorized service.
- This warranty specifically excludes cords, connectors, O-rings, fuses or other conditions
resulting from misuse and negligence.
- This warranty becomes void if the product components are damaged by anything other than normal recreational diving use.
- Modifications or repair by anyone other than an authorized SECON Dealer or ADITECH Service Department will void the warranty.
- Each
product is carefully examined and checked before it is shipped. It should
therefore be visually and operationally checked as soon as it is received. If
it is damaged in anyway, a claim should be filed with the courier and ADITECH notified of the damage.
