SECON UWM 40

Manufacturer: Secon

Availability: Usually ships in 1-2 weeks, on request only, no refunds

The UWM 40 is designed to search for metal objects on land or underwater. It detects ferrous and non-ferrous metals and also alloys. It indicates the size and conductivity characteristics of the detected objects: large and highly conductive objects will be indicated by a tremolo signal added to the audio alarm. This permits the diver to determine while searching whether a signal is from a larger object worth recovering or from.

Overview & Features

As a fully-fledged UW metal detector in industrial quality the UWM 40 captivates with its good detection range and its compact, handy design. It detects all metals. For determining the area of application: objects, small or large, which can be recovered with basic tools. The limit of the detection range depends on the size and location of the metal objects as well as on their composition and the local search conditions.

Key Features

High detection range
For land and underwater
Detects all metals
Audio object-information
Suppression of signals from small objects
Clear, audio signal
Permits easy locating
Can be used in saltwater

General

Despite its small size and search head this small and most simple to use underwater metal detector offers an impressive detection performance and an high resolution of small metal objects buried closely to each other. The UWM 40 detects ferrous and non-ferrous metal and alloys. The limits of detection range depend on the size, distance and kind of metal object to be detected. Small objects such as coins may be detected up to 25 cm distance while large objects can be located at correspondingly larger distance.
The audio signals from the UWM 40 permit differentiation between large and small objects. This permits the diver to determine while searching whether a signal is from a larger object worth recovering or from unwanted scrap.

Mode of operation

The detector applies the dynamic pulse induction principle which is advantageous for operation in saltwater. Short magnetic pulses are transmitted through the search head. These short magnetic pulses induce eddy current in conductive objects. The objects respond by a magnetic signal which is detected by the device and converted into an audio signal in its single sided head. The audio signal increases in frequency as the detector’s search approaches the metal object. This helps the diver to poinpoint the target object. If the object shows high conductivity a tremolo signature will be mixed into the audio signal.

Constructional features

It consists of a square shaped search head with joint, which is flanged to the detector handle containing the battery compartment and socket for the headset. The detector is switched on by half-rotation of the handle. The sensitivity can be adjusted by means of a sliding adjuster at the search head joint. For land use, the extension tube is screwed on.

Warranty

SECON provides a limited warranty to the original purchaser against all defects in original workmanship and material under normal SCUBA use and service as outlined in the owner's manual for 1 year from the date of purchase, with the following exceptions and conditions:

This warranty does not cover rental use.

Repairs made under this warranty will not extend the warranty period
This warranty is non-transferable and applies to the original purchaser only.
All correspondence concerning this warranty must be accompanied by a copy of the original sales receipt.
Any flood or damage, for any reason, that is caused from flooding an O-ring sealed or water tight area will not be covered under warranty. All O-ring sealed products undergo extensive factory pressure testing before being shipped and delivered and are therefore guaranteed to be sealed and functioning when shipped from the factory.
SECON will not be liable for any loss, damages, or expenses including incidental or consequential damages directly or indirectly arising from the sale or use of the product.
All paint finishing, cosmetic discoloration of surfaces, powder coating, or material stitching that is chipped, damaged, or unthreaded through customer use is not covered in the warranty.
SECON does not warranty any product for aesthetic finishes. Issues with surface finish that do not affect function of the product are not covered under warranty.
This warranty does not apply and may be rendered completely void in the event of accidental damage, abuse, overcharging of battery, flooding due to neglect, tampering, lack of care and maintenance, improper storage, or unauthorized service.
This warranty specifically excludes cords, connectors, O-rings, fuses or other conditions resulting from misuse and negligence.
This warranty becomes void if the product components are damaged by anything other than normal recreational diving use.
Modifications or repair by anyone other than an authorized SECON Dealer or ADITECH Service Department will void the warranty.
Each product is carefully examined and checked before it is shipped. It should therefore be visually and operationally checked as soon as it is received. If it is damaged in anyway, a claim should be filed with the courier and ADITECH notified of the damage.
By purchasing this product you agree and understand that in no event will SECON, its distributors or retailers, be held liable for any personal injuries resulting from its operation, or any other damage whether direct, indirect, incidental or consequential, even if SECON or ADITECH is advised of such damages.

NOTE: If the equipment is not covered by warranty, or if it is determined that the fault is caused by misuse, repair will be billed to the customer, and an estimate submitted for customer approval before the commencement of repairs
