Description

The Fisher FX-3 Ferro Probe senses fluctuations in the earth's magnetic field caused by buried survey markers, pipes, well casings, valves,iron relics, septic tanks and other ferromagnetic (iron or steel) objects. Because it's a differential induction magnetometer, the FX-3 locates buried iron objects far beyond the reach of ordinary (search coil type) metal detectors.

Like other Fisher detectors, the FX-3 is easy to operate just turn it on and go. It weighs just 2 1/2 lbs (1.14 kg) and features motion detection (the tube probe must be moving to detect a target).

When the FX-3's two sensors come across a large, ferrous object, the FX-3 signal tone increases in pitch and volume. When the FX-3 probe is directly over the target, the signal becomes silent and picks up again when moved past the target.

The FX-3 is extremely sensitive to iron with a large surface area, highly magnetized objects and long objects buried vertically. Large or small, if it's ferrous, the FX-3 is designed to find it. In addition to its industrial uses, the FX-3 can be used by archeologists and treasure hunters to find iron relics and other buried ferrous artifacts.
