Overview
A compact coil for sites full of iron and other metal trash. Its shape separates non-ferrous targets from iron very well.
It is light and agile, with good sensitivity to large, medium and especially small targets. Use it as an additional coil. On request, NEL can make it with a cable up to 3 m long.

- Recommended for
- Beginners and experienced detectorists.
Features
The coil is fully waterproof and submersible. The body is filled with epoxy resin and finished with a black marine-grade coating, the kind used on yachts and boats, so it can be used without a plastic coil cover. It handles medium and high ground mineralization well.

Cable strain relief
Protects the cable from kinking and also provides complete waterproofing.

Robust mounting bracket
Holds the coil firmly on the stem.

Outer shell
Made of impact-resistant, UV-resistant plastic.

Coil cover
Protects the search coil from damage and chipping.

Wear-resistant coating
Made of composite materials, so the coil can safely be used without a cover if required.

Rubber rings
For a firmer fit of the coil on the lower stem.

Connector
Gold- or silver-plated contacts.

High-strength cable
With a larger conductor cross-section. Made in Germany.

Protective cap
Protects the connector from dirt and dust.

Fixing bolt and hook-and-loop strap
Supplied with the coil.
Every NEL coil is field-tested for detection depth before sale.
