Subsurface Instruments ML-3L Offers

There are two versions in the Subsurface ML-3 series, both have the same great features, just vary in length. The user would be able to choose from two lengths a 40" or 55" depending on their application. These ferromagnetic locators are incredibly durable as all components are housed in an aircraft-grade aluminum monotube.

The locators are completely waterproof up to 250 feet underwater with an IP68 rating for protection from dust, dirt, and sand. The SubSurface ML-3 series is ideal for professionals trying to locate objects in difficult weather or even submerged in water such as pipes and cables, UXOs and mines, submerged vehicles, and salvageable wrecks. The ML-3 series uses an LCD display with a bar graph for visual cueing of polarity, signal strength, and low battery level. These magnetic locators have a simple, easy-to-use, 4-button keypad: on/off, zero, and gain up or gain down buttons enabling one-hand operation.

The zero button allows the user to cancel ambient magnetics or magnetic gradients in the soil or water for more accuracy in locating. In addition, the gain buttons allow the user to adjust the sensitivity for increasing the accuracy in pinpointing the object's location. The microprocessor will store the gain or sensitivity level when turned off and automatically adjust to that level when turned back on. The ML-3 locators are operated by three 9 V batteries with an approximate battery life of about 40 hours.
