GC-1001 Handheld Metal Detector
The GC-1001 has no adjustable controller at all, which is the point: there is nothing for an operator to set wrong, and it reacts immediately on detection. It runs from a standard 9 V battery, draws under 1 mA while working and nothing at all when stopped, and alarms with sound and light together. Size is 410 x 85 mm at 500 g.

Compared with other models in the range
The GC-613 is the adjustable 95 kHz wand for operators who want to tune it; the GC-1001 removes the controls entirely. Choose the GC-1001 where staff rotate and the priority is that the wand behaves identically every time.

- Sweep at a consistent distance from the person or parcel
