OKM Pulse Nova: Deep Metal Detection

Even the ancient Greeks knew many things to discover in our world. In addition to the elements of our Earth, the twinkling stars in the night sky fascinated them so much that devices were developed to understand the secrets of the universe centuries ago. As a manufacturer of metal detectors, we remain steadfast and dedicate our new "star" OKM Pulse Nova to discovering shiny objects underground.
The OKM Pulse Nova PI metal detector provides more efficient ground scanning, detecting lost jewelry like rings, charms, and earrings, natural gold like gold nuggets, and ancient weapons and ammunition at depths up to 3 meters (9.8 feet).

Metal Detection up to 3 Meters (9.8 Feet) Deep

The OKM Pulse Nova can reach great depths thanks to the applied pulse induction method. Pulse induction (PI) offers significant advantages compared to other measurement techniques to enable these detection depths:

• The search coil of the PI metal detector can be enlarged as desired. The larger the metal detector coil, the deeper the possible search.
• The detector's operating principle allows for particularly high transmission power, enabling the detection of objects at greater depths.

The deepest possible detection of metallic objects in the ground always depends on factors such as the size of the objects, their position, and the nature of the ground. These factors generally apply to all metal detectors:

• The larger the object, the deeper the metal detector can detect it.
• The longer the object remains underground, the better it can be detected (halo effect).
• The larger the metal detector coil, the deeper objects can be detected.
• The object's conductivity, shape, and position are crucial for detection accuracy.
• The soil composition and soil layers affect the depth of measurement.

Comparison Between Pulse Nova and Other OKM Devices

Compared to OKM ground scanners with passive measurement, the Pulse Nova pulse induction metal detector has another advantage: it achieves accurate measurement values even in highly mineralized soils, thus enabling the direct detection of natural gold and jewelry made of precious metals.

How Does the PI Metal Detector Work?

Simply turn on the metal detector, start walking, and sweep. After connecting the required coil, the Pulse Nova automatically recognizes it and begins the appropriate operations for successful treasure and gold hunting.

How Does the OKM Pulse Nova Detect Metal Objects?

The Pulse Nova pulse induction detector follows the principle of a time-controlled oscillator that uses alternating current to generate a magnetic field in the coil. This field is sent into the ground, generating an eddy current, which causes a reaction in the buried metal object.

The resulting electrical conductivity in the metal object is detected by the Pulse Nova as a disturbance or anomaly and is reported via audio signals.

Detecting Jewelry and Precious Metals

This way, jewelry made from precious metals like gold and silver, as well as magnetic objects and natural gold minerals and nuggets, can be detected directly.

Targeted Search with Pulse Nova

Thanks to its working method and different coils, treasure hunters can effectively focus on target objects. Using the large search coil in addition to the Frame Xi104 coil, small items like bottle caps, pull tabs, and small pieces of aluminum foil can be ignored. However, caution is advised as even individual coins may not be detected when using large search coils. Depending on the application and the target object, make sure to choose the appropriate coil:

• Large search coil, large magnetic field: Mainly larger metal objects can be found.
• Small search coil, small magnetic field: Smaller objects can also be detected.

OKM Pulse Nova Metal Detector with Intuitive Operation

Organized Control Panel

The OKM Pulse Nova can locate buried metal objects in different types of soil without the need to dig the area first. Thanks to the ease of use of the PI metal detector and the interchangeable search coils, results can be obtained quickly and easily.

The control unit features two rotary knobs to adjust sensitivity and volume. For particularly intuitive and language-independent operations, the display has been completely omitted. Audio feedback informs the user directly via the speaker or Bluetooth headphones about the detected metal objects.

Telescopic Rod for Comfortable Use

The OKM Pulse Nova is equipped with a telescopic rod that includes an adjustable armrest, allowing the user to hold the metal detector comfortably and in a balanced manner. The rod length can be adjusted to suit the user's needs.
In a few simple steps, the control unit and flashlight can be connected to the top of the telescopic rod. At the bottom end, the required search coil is attached. The frame coil is not used with the rod.

Pinpointing with the PI Metal Detector

Once the metal detector finds an object, it’s time to pinpoint it accurately. First, use slow sweeping motions over the object to determine its exact position.

Gradually narrow the range of the anomaly point by continuing to swing the metal detector slowly from different directions over the detected anomaly. The intensified audio signal indicates the precise position and size of the object.

Metal Detector with Different Search Coils

The OKM Pulse Nova metal detector is standardly equipped with a dual mono coil. Thanks to its design, this coil allows particularly good performance in detecting metal objects such as precious metals like gold and silver, as well as ferrous metals underground. Depending on the application field and personal preference, you can choose between two search coil designs for the OKM Pulse Nova:

• Delta Search Coil: Military prospectors in the field and shallow waters primarily use open search coils like Delta. The open coil is lighter in weight and easier to handle, especially underwater.
• Omega Search Coil: Experienced natural gold prospectors use solid plate coils with their previous gold detectors. The Omega search coil is particularly suitable for use in rocky areas, as it does not stick to stones or brush.

Choose the design that best suits your application field! In terms of functional performance and range, there are no differences between the OKM Omega and OKM Delta search coils.

Additional Search Coils for Expanded Application Capabilities in the OKM Pulse Nova

The Pulse Nova PI metal detector comes standard with a large search coil (Omega38 or Delta38) and a small search coil (Omega18 or Delta18). The larger search coil is ideal for gold prospecting, treasure hunting, military search, and explosive ordnance disposal (EOD). Since the search coil is waterproof, it can be used in shallow waters such as streams, rivers, lakes, and even saltwater environments.
