OKM eXp 6000 - Figure 6.5: Signature of a Non-Ferromagnetic Metal Target

Sensor. If you keep moving the probe from one side to another, these 2 signatures will change
continuously.
Take care to move the Super Sensor slowly and at the same height above the ground and above a
detected object to get a clear signature.
The figure 6.5 represents a signature of a non-ferrous target. You can recognize that there is only a
positive amplitude (red). Additionally to the main amplitude there is another small peak, which is
typically for precious metals. Also here the order of amplitude and the small peak is not important and
depends on the scan direction.
The last of the typical signatures is represented in figure 6.6. It is the signature of all non-metallic
targets and structures. These can be voids, tunnels or buried plastic pipes or boxes. You can recognize
that there is only a negative amplitude (blue).

Non-ferromagnetic metals
Non-ferrous targets have a pure positive
signature.

Non-metallic targets
All non-metallic items have a pure
negative signature.
