SPHINX
"SPHINX VM-611VORTEX T" High-Sensitivity Eddy Current Microprocessor Handheld Metal Detector is designed for detecting metal objects during personal inspections, baggage and mail screening.
The high-performance metal detector "SPHINX VM-611VORTEX T" is the latest development combining the best search and operational characteristics.
This model sets the benchmark for sensitivity that global manufacturers strive to achieve. However, sensitivity with false alarms is ineffective. The "VORTEX T" implements radio interference protection and real-time thermal compensation that adjusts sensitivity based on ambient temperature. Its effective operating range is -37°C to +50°C.
It features:
  • Manual sensitivity adjustment
  • Two programmable sensitivity levels (accessible via engineering mode)
  • Example:
  • Detection of small items (SIM cards, blades, needles)
  • Focus on dangerous objects (guns, knives)
  • One-button mode switching
Operational Specifications:
  • Ultra-low power consumption: 3 mA
  • 100+ hours on alkaline batteries
  • ~400 hours with Li-ion battery (1200 mAh)
Convenience Features:
  • Wall-mountable modular charger (also serves as storage)
Related Model:
The portable electromagnetic metal detector "VM-611VORTEX S" is adopted by the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs (Classified Order #742).
Key Differences of VM-611VORTEX S:
  • Different detection parameters
  • Single adjustable sensitivity level
  • Richer accessories:
  • 9V battery
  • Wall-mount charger
  • Leather belt clip
Both VM-611VORTEX T and VM-611VORTEX S represent the world's highest technical standards in their class.
