Featuring new, revolutionary Target Control Level 1 Technology. The Zircon SuperScan M3 advanced wall scanner is tuned to find clean, wood studs while filtering out metallic false positive objects, such as plumbing, conduit, straps, brackets or ducts, hiding behind surfaces. The LoLevel and MetalliWarning Indicators alert to the presence of dangerous, deep, less dense false positives and metal targets, reducing the chance of accidentally drilling into a piece of metal or plastic pipe. with the addition of Metal Scan mode, users can interactively narrow and map metal in walls, making for a more robust and multi-functional tool. The SuperScan M3 offers 4 distinct detection modes - TC, StudScan, DeepScan and Metal Scan. A 3-mode switch makes it easy to toggle between functions, while the ColorTrip Display conveniently details information. The screen will illuminate pale blue in TC mode and indicate the center, edges and direction of wood studs, while enabling the user to identify 'safe-to-drill' zones by utilizing the new Trust but Verify technique. When TC mode is off, the tool will perform in StudScan mode indicating both wood and metal studs. DeepScan mode doubles the scanning depth to find wood and metal studs beneath extra layers of drywall or paneling. A dedicated Metal Scan mode helps users detect ferrous metal, such as rebar and non-ferrous metal, such as copper.
- New target control mode locates the center, edges and direction of wood studs and not metal, up to 3/4 in. D (19 mm) behind surfaces, identifies safe-to-drill zones between adjacent drywall screws, nails and protector plates
- StudScan mode locates center, edges and direction of wood and metal studs up to 3/4 in. D (19 mm)
- Deep scan mode doubles the scan depth of wood and metal studs up to 1-1/2 in. D (38 mm)
- Metal scan mode locates ferrous metal up to 3 in. D (75 mm) and non-ferrous metal up to 1-1/2 in. D (38 mm)
- WireWarning detection alerts to live, unshielded AC wires up to 2 in. D (50 mm)
- LoLevel indicator displays low (weak) signal objects, such as plastic water pipes, while in TC mode
- Signal strength indicator helps distinguish between shallow and deep targets while in studs can and deepscan modes
- MetalliWarning indicator turns on when metal is detected in TC, studs can and DeepScan modes
- ACT (Auto Correcting Technology) automatically corrects common errors, such as when scanning begins over a stud
- Low battery indicator for optimum performance (9-Volt battery required, not included)
- Target spotlight illuminates on screen when target is detected
- ColorTrip display illuminates pale blue in TC mode, green in DeepScan mode, blue in metal scan mode and red to alert to the presence of live AC electricity
- Spotlite pointer shines an arrow-shaped light on the scanned surface to indicate the target location
- V marker groove enables accurate marking of target location
