The Fisher M-97 Metal Detector is a specialized tool designed for locating buried or paved-over valves, boxes, manhole covers, and other concealed metallic objects. It is capable of detecting targets made of aluminum, brass, and lead.
Featuring push-button tuning, the M-97 allows users to easily maintain optimum sensitivity for accurate pinpointing of buried metallic objects. It incorporates auto-tune circuitry for convenient operation, and the waterproof search coil ensures reliable performance even in wet conditions.
One of the notable features of the M-97 is its compact storage design. The lower stem can be compacted, the search coil can be twisted 90 degrees, and the coil can be folded flat for easy storage. It can fit into the optional carrying case for added convenience.
The M-97 upholds the Fisher tradition of affordability, durability, and simplicity, while delivering maximum performance in the field. It comes with a two-year limited warranty, providing peace of mind to users.
With its operating frequency of 4.5 kHz, the M-97 offers efficient detection capabilities. It has a sensitivity rating of 0.2mV RMS for full scale, allowing for precise detection of metallic objects. The output indication options include a meter with a linear scale of 0-100 and 1 milliamp output. The built-in speaker has an impedance of 16 ohms, and there is also a headset option with an impedance of 8 ohms. The audio frequency is set at 450 kHz.
The M-97 Metal Detector is powered by two 9V batteries, providing sufficient operating time in the field. The search coil is immersible in water, allowing for underwater detection as needed.
