EQUINOX 800 TECHNOLOGIES
MULTI-IQ
Multi-IQ Simultaneous Multi-Frequency
Low frequencies typically give more depth on large targets than high frequencies, which are usually more sensitive to small targets. With EQUINOX you can operate across the full spectrum of frequencies simultaneously for maximum results.
The EQUINOX 600 offers a choice of 3 single frequencies and the EQUINOX 800 offers the choice of 5 single frequencies. Both models cover a much broader range of targets when operating in Multi than any one single frequency can, however, if excessive ground noise is present in a particular detecting location, switching into a single frequency can help to eliminate this.

5FX8
5F×8 (Five Frequency Times Eight) provides five individual transmit frequencies in the one metal detector, selectable at the push of a button. Each transmit frequency optimises the detector for different size targets and conditions. EQUINOX 800 offers 5 single frequencies of 5, 10,15, 20, and 40 kHz, giving an 8 times range or ratio from 5 to 40, hence the 5F×8 technology designation.
The individual selectable frequencies in EQUINOX 800 are:
5 kHz – Great for large silver coins
10 kHz – Good for small Roman hammered coins
15 kHz – A good general treasure detecting mode
20 kHz – Ideal for general treasure detecting and gold prospecting
40 kHz – Optimum sensitivity to very small gold nuggets
Having five selectable frequencies gives the versatility that is equivalent to five conventional single frequency detectors.
Note that EQUINOX Series detectors also feature Multi-IQ technology which allows you to operate all available single frequencies plus more, simultaneously. The option to operate your detector in a single frequency can be helpful if you are experiencing excessive ground noise when using the Multi-Frequency setting.
