NR-12C
Handheld control-wire-line detector
Has been tested in Croatian Mine Action Centre – Centre for Testing, Development and Training (HCR-CTRO)
GENERAL PURPOSE:
Improvised explosive devices (IED) detection via their control-wire-line survey.
APPLICATION:
- roads, terrain and objects inspection for mines, improvised explosive devices (IED) and other explosive appliances with electronic components
- searching for hidden cache with weapons, ammunition and explosive devices
- questioned items investigation, searching for subversive and terrorist devices and arrangements
ADVANTAGES:
- not very extended wire-line detection (RC IED cables: from 20 m and longer)
- user-friendly design, the tool can be easily fitted to operator’s height, surface relief and the height of vegetation
- two operational modes:
- unknown wire-line detection
- the detected line tracing
- audible indication
- LED indication:
- signal level in wire-line searching mode
- direction of deflection from the detected line trace
- power-source-state LED indication together with continuous voltage control
- spaced generator and receiver modules operation facility
