Minelab EQUINOX 800 is finally in stock!


The Minelab EQUINOX 800 is the all-terrain multi-purpose detector that obsoletes all single-frequency VLF detectors. Equally adaptable for all target types and ground conditions… just select your detecting location and go! The EQUINOX Series has been designed for the serious coin & treasure enthusiast looking to upgrade to a high-performance detector, without the high cost. It’s also suitable for the new detectorist, having several pre-set modes for different detecting locations. The EQUINOX Series features Minelab’s STATE-OF-THE-ART Multi-IQ simultaneous multi-frequency technology and combines fast recovery speed with low-latency wireless audio in a lightweight waterproof platform.


 

Multi-IQ is derived from:

 

Simultaneous Multi-Frequency In-phase and Quadrature Synchronous Demodulation.

 

So, full marks to “Pimento” on them for this great deduction:

 

 “I think the IQ part of Multi-IQ is not suggesting how Intelligent it is but is alluding to the mathematical I and Q, representing the two quadrature (90 degrees apart) components of the signal, (which are then demodulated, a key part of most metal detector workings)”

 

But, that doesn’t mean EQUINOX is not an intelligent detector as well! We can go to a statement from Dr. Philip Wahrlich, our principal technology physicist, about a key difference of Multi-IQ compared to the demodulation taking place in conventional single frequency VLF detectors:

 

“Within the Multi-IQ engine, the receiver is both phase-locked and amplitude-normalized to the transmitted magnetic field – rather than the electrical voltage driving the transmitted field. This field can be altered by the mineralization in the soil (in both phase and amplitude), so if the receiver was only phase-locked to the driving voltage, this would result in inaccurate target IDs and a higher audible noise level. Locking the receiver to the actual transmitted field, across all frequencies simultaneously (by measuring the current through the coil) solves these issues, creating a very sensitive AND stable detector”

 

Precisely measuring these extremely small current variations is quite remarkable if you consider the levels involved. It’s actually parts per billion, or nanoamp signals, we are talking about here!

 

With Multi-IQ, we can derive much greater target ID accuracy and increased detecting performance, especially on ‘difficult’ ground. In ‘mild’ ground, a single frequency may perform adequately, BUT depth and stable IDs will be limited by ground noise; whereas the Multi-IQ simultaneous multi-frequency will achieve maximum depth with a very stable target signal. In ‘strong’ ground, the single frequency will not be able to effectively separate the target signal, giving decreased results; whereas Multi-IQ will still detect at depth, losing a minimal amount of target accuracy.  This is how we would generally represent the multi-frequency advantage, based on our engineering test data.

 

Minelab Equinox Stability in weak and strong soil

 

 Let’s hear more from Philip Wahrlich about the technical details:

 

“For each frequency, the detector transmits and receives there are two signals which can be extracted which we refer to as I and Q. The Q signal is most sensitive to targets, while the I signal is most sensitive to iron content. Traditional single-frequency metal detectors use the Q signal to detect targets and then use the ratio of the I and Q signals to assess the characteristics of the target and assign a target ID. The problem with this approach is that the I signal is sensitive to the iron content of the soil. The target ID is always perturbed by the response from the soil, and as the signal from the target gets weaker, this perturbation becomes substantial. With some simplification here for brevity, if a detector transmits and receives on more than one frequency, it can ignore the soil sensitive I signals, and instead, look at the multiple Q signals it receives in order to determine a target ID. That way, even for weak targets or highly mineralized soils, the target ID is far less perturbed by the response from the soil. This leads to very precise target IDs, both in mineralized soils and for targets at depth.

 

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

 

“How many simultaneous frequencies?” you may ask, wondering if this is a critical parameter. Minelab has been carrying out detailed investigations into this in recent years. Just as you can color in a map with many colors, the minimum number to differentiate between adjacent countries is only 4 – a tough problem for mathematicians to prove, over many years. Similar to the map problem, it’s perhaps not the maximum number of frequencies needed to achieve an optimum result, but the minimum number that is more interesting. When it comes to frequencies in a detector, to cover all target types, how the frequencies are combined AND processed is now more important, with the latest detectors, than how many frequencies, are for achieving even better results.

 

Efficient new technology = lower power = lighter weight = higher performance.

 

Minelab Equinox multi-frequency range

 

The above diagram is intended to be a simplified representation of how different frequencies of operation are better suited to different target types; i.e. low frequencies (e.g. 5kHz) are more responsive to high conductors (e.g. large silver targets) and high frequencies (e.g. 40kHz) are more responsive to low conductors (e.g. small gold nuggets). The EQUINOX 600 offers a choice of 3 single frequencies and the EQUINOX 800 offers the choice of 5 single frequencies. Both models also have simultaneous multi-frequency options that cover a much broader range of targets than any one single frequency can – and they’re different across the Detecting Modes! 


4 Detect Modes (Park, Field, Beach, Gold)

6 Frequency Options (5kHz, 10kHz, 15kHz, 20kHz, 40kHz, Multi) A new Single Frequency of 4 kHz has been added to the existing 5, 10, 15, 20, and 40 kHz options.
