Minelab X-Terra Pro

X-Terra Pro hands you manual control Minelab usually automates: PRO-SWITCH lets you pick from 5, 8, 10, or 15 kHz to match ground and target, while the whole unit stays IP68-sealed to 5 meters and adds a built-in flashlight and vibration alert for low light.

PRO-SWITCH is the feature that sets X-Terra Pro apart: instead of an algorithm choosing a frequency for you, you pick manually from four — 5, 8, 10, or 15 kHz — depending on the target and the ground you're standing on. That manual control pays off most in mixed conditions, where one frequency handles junk-heavy soil better than another.

The whole device is IP68-rated and waterproof to 5 meters (16 feet), so wading a stream or working a wet beach doesn't require a second thought, and full audio customization across five tone modes and 25 volume steps lets you shape exactly how targets sound. Three search categories — Park, Field, and Beach — each carry two customizable presets, plus a straight All Metal mode for a first scan of new ground.

Park suits gardens and junk-heavy public areas, Field balances depth against discrimination for farmland and older sites, and Beach runs at 8 kHz specifically to cut down on false signals from wet, salty sand. A built-in flashlight and a vibration alert — with a distinct pattern for ferrous targets — round out the kit for early mornings or low-light digging, backed by a 3-year warranty on the control unit and coil.

Key Features

• PRO-SWITCH technology

  Manually pick from 5, 8, 10, or 15 kHz instead of letting the detector choose for you.

• Fully waterproof (IP68)

  Rated to 5 meters, so wading or heavy rain doesn't put the electronics at risk.

• Full audio control

  Five tone modes plus a Depth setting, across 25 volume steps, for exactly the feedback you want.

• Light and vibration

  A red-tinted backlight and a handle vibration alert work together for low-light or hands-free detecting.

• 3 search modes with six presets

  Park, Field, and Beach each save two custom presets, so six setups are ready without reconfiguring on-site.

• High-precision target ID

  119 discrete ID segments separate close signals more clearly than a coarse scale would.

• Automatic interference cancellation and ground balance

  Both adjust on their own, cutting setup time on unfamiliar ground.

• Internal lithium battery

  A 3.7V, 5100mAh cell is built in and rated for all-day use.

• 3-year warranty

  Covers both the control unit and the coil.

• Park 1 & 2 mode

  Tuned for gardens and busy public ground thick with junk, with two presets you can save and switch between.

• Field 1 & 2 mode

  Balances depth against discrimination for farmland and older sites where relics might sit deeper.

• Beach 1 & 2 mode

  Runs at 8 kHz specifically to keep wet, salty sand from triggering false signals.

• All Metal mode

  Skips discrimination entirely for a fast first pass over ground you haven't scanned before.
