| Abstract | This document augments the classification and technical evaluation of Commercial Metal Detectors presented in Report No. DOT-TSC-OST-71-15, June 1971. Data based on extensive laboratory tests are presented on two hand-held models and two walk-through installations. The results confirm the validity of previous limited field tests of three models and indicate that a fourth model not previously available for testing ranks highest in performance an capital cost effectiveness in the category of walk-throug installations for all metals (without loaction discrimination). |
