C.Sope M-Scan - simply hilarious magnetometer

I sell several magnetometers and none of them are bad, yet the M-Scan really fit our needs from the start. In fact, setting up the instrument is really remarkably simple with no tricky or potential for making a mistake. Mention can also definitely be made of the construction, as expected with the C.Scope. It is really sturdy and as with all devices from this British brand, it is expected that you will use it for many years. Reliability can also be confirmed by the fact that we have not had a single service so far since sales began, so in a year and a half the figure is quite extraordinary. While it's clear that something will turn up eventually, one can quite bow to the engineers at C.Scope, this one really has come good.

TheMagnetometer is primarily designed for locating lost ducts, water shutoffs, etc. Simply, when road workers manage to pour asphalt over something, or it disappears somewhere covered with dirt, etc.). A huge advantage is that the magnetometer does not react to tiny pieces of ferromagnetic metals. This avoids a huge amount of false digging and so it is even possible to find it in a single hour, like I did in a local village a few weeks ago. The work is simply fast and accurate with a minimum of false digging.

Secondarily, though, it can also be used to locate classic iron targets where you miss the small ones. Several friends of ours have tested this with quite interesting results and I'm sure it will continue. For ironworkers, when it is possible to skip small iron targets and mark only the larger ones, this is certainly an interesting feature.

Be that as it may, the C.Scope M-Scan is the most advanced classic bar magnetometer on the market today at a really great price, and it's a wonder I look in vain for anything to criticise it.


Technical description of the C.Scope M-Scan magnetometer

Magnetometer C.Scope M-SCAN detects ferromagnetic fields of objects such as manholes, septic tanks, valves, cast iron pipes. It detects all magnetic metals at a much greater depth than conventional metal detectors. It is capable of detecting objects up to a depth of 5 meters depending on the signal strength (size of the object).

The standard use of M-SCAN magnetometers is for locating manhole covers, hydrant covers, metal pipes, water meter caps, metal pipe joints, etc. The M-Scan has a large easy to read LCD display and a clearly audible response to the detected object. The simple operation then contributes to great operator comfort, ease of use and even without lengthy training. The unique design of the detector housing contributes to the fact that the detector can be operated for long hours without any sign of fatigue.
