Technical Specifications


  • Saves time and money.
    • It has a built-in filter to ignore metallic litter (such as cigarette cartons, metal foil etc.) without any loss of sensitivity or detection range. Avoids the cost of digging and refilling unnecessary holes due to false signals.
  • Can be used next to parked cars and chain link fencing.
    • Strong directional search field is unaffected by nearby metal objects. See illustration to the right.
  • Unaffected by moisture and temperature changes.
    • No re-tuning required even when passing over wet grass, or from sunlight to shadow.
  • Designed with the needs of the operator in mind.
    • Lightweight and well balanced so that it can be held in one hand without tiring.
  • Protovale water valve box locators / detectors are built to last.
    • Some of our customers have been using the same instruments for over 15 years.
  • Low cost water valve box location / detection equipment
    • If the cost of the instruments are taken over their life time then they represents superb value for money.
  • Backed-up by full product support service
    • The Imp has a full one year parts and labour guarantee.

Amazing time savings due to highly directional field and litter filtering technology

  • Highly directional detection field
    • Unaffected by nearby interfering signals. Simple metal detectors or water valve box detectors / locators simply cannot match this instrument in action.
  • Unique false signal filtering technology
    • Eliminates time wasting false signals from cigarette packets and similar metallic litter.
  • Deep detection range
    • Can detect inspection covers down to nearly 1 metre, even when obscured by foil packets and similar items buried a few centimetres down, above the cover. The Imp will ignore the litter but will detect the inspection cover.
