Zircon, MultiScanner i500 OneStep

MultiScanner OneStep finds the center and edges of studs and joists, finds copper pipes (and other nonferrous metal) up to 1-1/2 inches (38 mm) deep, finds rebar (ferrous metal) in concrete up to 3 inches (76 mm) deep, and detects and traces hot AC wires MultiScanner i500 OneStep is a five-function scanner:


Stud Scan Mode
Finds the center of studs and joists up to 3/4 inches (19 mm) deep in normal mode.


Stud DeepScan Mode
Finds studs up to 1-1/2 inches (38 mm) deep behind drywall, paneling, or plywood.


Metal Finder
Finds copper and other non-ferrous metal up to 1-1/2 inches (38 mm) deep. Finds ferrous metal such as rebar in concrete up to 3 inches (76 mm) deep.


AC Tracing
Turn off wood and metal scan to look only for hot AC to find and trace wires, even in plastic conduit.


AC WireWarning
Continuously detects hot unshielded AC wiring—an important safety feature.

The Zircon Advantage
• Patent-pending CenterVision Technology finds the stud center in one step.
• Turn off wood and metal scan to look only for hot AC to find and trace wires, even in plastic conduit.
• Uses a patented sensor to pinpoint the center and edges of wood or metal studs behind walls, floors, or ceilings.
• Metal-only setting looks specifically for metal pipes or rebar.
• Back-lit LCD screen. Easy-to-understand, on-screen graphics and audio signal indicate target.
• Exclusive, patented SpotLite Pointing System shines a bright beam of light over target center.
• Patented dual-sensitivity scanning—normal up to 3/4 inches (19 mm) or DeepScan up to 1-1/2 inches (38 mm).
