AKA Condor-3 

The AKA Condor-3 metal detector is a fairly old entry-level metal detector. It is currently being discontinued. This device suggests replacing the Berkut-5 metal detector. 

However, he had great popularity earlier. They especially liked to use it when searching for military artifacts. Its characteristics were enough for these purposes. 
AKA Condor-3 is a single-frequency metal detector with an operating frequency of 7 kHz. 
As a rule, the device was supplied with a 10 ″ coil at 7 kHz. 

Disadvantages of AKA Condor-3 
• The coil is rigidly attached. (For replacement, contact the AKA Service Center) 
• Small LCD 
Advantages of AKA Condor-3 
• Reliable 
• Good performance in search depth 
Characteristics of the AKA Condor-3 metal detector by depth of search 
• Coin - up to 30cm 
• Helmet - up to 80cm 
• Maximum search depth - 2.2m

• Documentation 
Price of Condor-3 
The price of the AKA Condor-3 metal detector is about $ 430.

Below is a table with VDI numbers for the AKDA Condor Series metal detector. 

AKA Condor-7252M 


The AKA Condor-7252M metal detector is an old and still popular mid-range metal detector. It was especially (and even now) in demand in law enforcement agencies to search for military facilities. It is currently being discontinued. The AKA Condor metal detector is proposed to be replaced with Golden Berkut-5. 

AKA metal detector Condor 7252M 
The Condor 7252M metal detector has better characteristics than the Condor-3 including when searching for small objects. Therefore, this device was used not only for searching the war attributes, but also for searching for coins and jewelry. 
AKA Condor-7252M is a single-frequency metal detector with an operating frequency of 7 kHz. 
As a rule, the device was supplied with a 10 ″ coil at 7 kHz. 

Display of AKA Condor 7252M 
Disadvantages of AKA Condor-7252M 
• The coil is rigidly attached. (For replacement, contact the AKA Service Center) 
• Small LCD display (Although larger than AKA Condor-3) 
Advantages of AKA Condor-7252M 
• Reliable 
• Good performance in search depth 
• Good looking for small objects 
Unlike Condor-3, the 7252M model has a battery compartment for 6 AA batteries. By the way, hence the best characteristics in depth (since a stronger current is supplied to the coil). 
AKA Condor-7252M metal detector characteristics by search depth 
• Coin - up to 40cm 
• Helmet - up to 1m 
• Maximum search depth - 2.5m 

Scope of delivery AKA Condor-7252M 
• Electronic unit on the upper bar with armrest

AKA Berkut-5 is a mid-range device that replaces well-known and popular AKA metal detectors: Condor3 and Condor 7252M. 
The metal detector Berkut-5 operates at several frequencies. Currently, coils with frequencies of 3, 7, 14, 20 kHz are supplied for it. 

The highlight of Berkut is that it works correctly with 3 frequency coils. That is, you can switch to a different frequency during the search, and the metal detector will pick it up. And you can work without turning off the device and new coil balancing. 
(Oddly enough, this is how the Sorex and Signum metal detectors work. With the shutdown ..., the new coil snap ... and the new ground balancing ...) 

AKA Golden Berkut has good characteristics. Depth of search for a single coin is 40cm. 
The Golden Berkut has a large display, which displays the number of VDI and a graphical display of the signal. (Everything is very similar to the Sorex, only the filling is different). 

AKA Berkut-5 - control unit 

The control unit itself is easily removed from the bar. And the whole structure in disassembled form takes up little space. Fairly compact device. 
The Golden Berkut has an ergonomic S-shaped bar. 
Powered by 4 AA batteries. 
In addition, the metal detector is lightweight. 

Characteristics of the AKA Berkut-5 metal detector by search depth 
• Coin - up to 45cm 
• Helmet - up to 1.2m 
• Maximum search depth - 2.5m 

Scope of delivery AKA Berkut-5 

• The electronic unit 
• Upper S-bar 
• Middle bar 
• Lower bar 
• Fasteners 
• Coil 10 ″ at 7kHz (typically) 
• Armrest 
• Documentation 
(Sometimes it can be equipped with a 9x12 ″ coil at 7kHz.)

AKA Signum GT - - modified specifically for export

AKA Signum MFD 7272M PRO is a device that has the same characteristics as the basic MFD model. But having an improved component base and allowing you to change the current strength and sensitivity. 

The new controls are shown below: current switch (6V-3V) and sensitivity adjustment (external knob). 

Replacing a classic plastic rod with a straight iron.

Moisture protection is dustproof (does not ensure immersion of the unit) in water.

AKA Signum MFD GT - rear panel 
AKA Signum MFD GT has the following advantages: 
• better balanced 
• quieter 
• less phantoms occur 
• allows you to quickly change the current strength on the coil and explore targets in different modes 
All the main characteristics of the Signum PRO are the same as that of the simple Signum MFD. But sometimes deep goals that are already casting into the black zone can be seen as colored in high current mode. 

MFD GT metal detector depth 

• Coin - up to 60cm 
• Helmet - up to 1.5m 
• Maximum search depth - 2.5m 
• In deep helmet mode - 1.8m

AKA Sorex PRO is a mid-range device. 

The Sorex PRO metal detector works at several frequencies. Currently, coils with frequencies of 3, 7, 14, 20 kHz are supplied for it. 
The device has good characteristics. Depth of search for an individual coin is 35-40cm. Such parameters are often achieved by imported devices that position themselves as professional. 

AKA Sorex PRO has a large display, which displays the number of VDI and a graphical display of the signal. (Everything is very similar to the Sorex 7280M, only the filling is different). 
The control unit itself is easily removed from the bar. And the whole structure in disassembled form takes up little space. Fairly compact device.

AKA Signum ISB - modified specifically for export

In this metal detector, the radio components were replaced with higher-quality ones that do not change their characteristics when the temperature changes: 
• Tantalum capacitors (instead of aluminum) 
• Texas Instruments operating chips 
In practice, the AKA Signum ICB has become better balanced on the ground and quieter because fewer phantom signals occur. 
All the main characteristics are the same as for the simple Signum Classik. 

Replacing a classic plastic rod with a straight iron.

Moisture protection is dustproof (does not ensure immersion of the unit) in water.
