Product Description
The VANQUISH 60-Series offers a range of metal detectors that cater to both beginners and advanced users, all powered by Minelab’s Multi-IQ technology for efficient target recognition and ground coverage.
The VANQUISH 360 is a streamlined model ideal for those looking for an entry-level option with professional performance. It uses Multi-IQ technology to scan multiple frequencies simultaneously, enhancing target identification. The detector is waterproof (IP68-rated) up to 5 meters, comes with a V10X coil, and offers modes like Park, Beach, and All Metal. With six discrimination segments, it helps separate valuable finds from junk.
The VANQUISH 460 steps up the performance with added features for users who want more than just basic functionality. It also uses Multi-IQ technology for better target recognition and accuracy across various terrains, and it’s waterproof up to 5 meters. A V10X coil, handgrip vibration, and Bluetooth® LE Audio make it easy to use in noisy environments, while a 10-hour battery life supports long detecting sessions.
The VANQUISH 560 offers advanced power, precision, and control. It features the larger V12X coil for increased ground coverage and sensitivity, along with four levels of Iron Bias control and five audio tones to help isolate valuable targets. With 10 hours of runtime and Bluetooth® LE Audio, the VANQUISH 560 delivers a more advanced detecting experience.
Features
- Fully Waterproof: With an IP68 rating, this detector is built to handle water, dirt and dust with no compromise to performance. Fully submersible up to 5 m (16 ft), it’s engineered for versatility across submerged environments, wet terrain and unpredictable weather. Reliable detection continues uninterrupted in creeks, shorelines, rain-soaked ground and other demanding conditions.
- Multi-IQ Technology: Why Multi-IQ? Because more performance shouldn’t mean more effort. Minelab’s proven simultaneous multiple frequency technology gives you the power of multiple detectors working for you at the same time. With Multi-IQ there’s no switching frequencies, no second-guessing. Just turn it on and start finding. Coins, gold, jewellery. Parks, fields, beaches. No terrain’s off-limits. No treasure left behind. All metals. All soils. All the time.
- Search Modes: With Park, Field, Beach and a customisable User Profile, your detector is ready for any ground you explore. These modes let you adapt seamlessly to busy sites, wide fields or challenging shorelines, while the User Profile gives you quick access to your own preferred settings. Together, they deliver the versatility to hunt effectively in almost any environment.
- Volume and Target Tones: 10 volume levels for both overall volume and ferrous tone response, while five distinct target tones give greater control over how signals are heard. Volume can be adjusted to suit any environment, while target tones provide sharper audio separation. These features work together to support faster recognition and more intuitive detecting in the field.
- Sensitivity and Discrimination: 10 Sensitivity levels and 30 Discrimination Segments provide advanced control over how the detector responds to both ground conditions and metal targets. Adjust sensitivity to detect faint signals or stabilise performance in difficult soils, while discrimination allows for isolation of desired metals. Working in tandem, these features deliver the precision and control needed to maximise every hunt.
- Iron Bias: Four Iron Bias levels give you control over how iron signals are handled, improving clarity in trash-filled ground and helping valuable targets stand out.
