What does the DD & FC stand for in DD-FC Coils
On a Garrett Axiom metal detector, "DD" stands for "Double D," which refers to the design of the search coil, where two overlapping "D" shaped coils are used to transmit and receive signals, providing better performance in mineralized soil by effectively canceling out ground interference.Key points about DD coils:
- Improved ground balancing:The overlapping coil design helps to minimize the effects of ground minerals, allowing for more stable detection in challenging soil conditions.
- Centralized detection field:The positive detection area primarily occurs in the center of the coil, creating a focused search pattern.
- Better depth potential:Compared to a standard concentric coil, a DD coil can often detect targets at greater depths in mineralized soil.
On a Garrett Axiom metal detector, "FC" stands for "Focused Core," referring to a unique design feature in the search coil where the central part of the coil is concentrated to provide better detection of small targets, particularly in highly mineralized ground, while still maintaining the ground canceling capabilities of a standard Double D coil.Key points about FC coils:
- Improved small target detection:The focused core allows for better sensitivity to tiny objects like small gold nuggets.
- Double D design:Despite the focused core, the coil still utilizes the Double D coil pattern for effective ground cancellation.
- Ideal for prospecting:This feature makes FC coils particularly beneficial for gold prospecting where finding small nuggets is important.
