Elcometer Home Page

Although originally designed to accurately locate valve boxes and manhole covers, the Elcometer P500 can also be used as a general purpose metal detector. The Elcometer P500 is both deceptively simple to use and very rugged making it a favourite choice in the market.

Detecting metal objects down to a maximum of 1m (39.4"), the Elcometer P500 has a number of key features over other industrial metal detectors. These include:

  • A strong focussed search field ensures the accurate location of objects close to metal fencing and vehicles.
  • Ignores any ghost signals from cigarette packets, drinks cans and other metallic waste materials - often picked up by other detectors on the market.
  • Manufactured from a single moulded design, in high impact ABS plastic, the Elcometer P500 stands up to the tough environment.
  • Balanced, lightweight unit with a single control button for ease of use
  • Audio signal with headphone socket and an ultra-bright LED visual indicator identify when metal has been detected.
