Stud Finder Wall Scanner, 5 in 1 Multifunction Stud Locator with Upgraded Smart Sensor, HD LCD Display and Audio Alarm for The Center & Edge of Metal, Studs, AC Wire, and Pipe Detection(Light Yellow)

Product Description

Jurgen K stud finder uses UPGRADED SMART SENSORS which can sense the change in density in the space behind the wall and locates the stud center with GREAT ACCURACY. You will not worry to drill many error holes on the wall while putting up a TV bracket, shelf unit, or even just a set of coat hooks on drywall.

Stud Scan Detection

This stud locator has 3 stud scan modes. Deep Scan Mode scans through 2 layers of drywall up to 1.5 in. (38 mm) deep. DeepScan Mode is a higher sensitivity scanning mode that should be used when there are extra layers of wallboard or paneling. To minimize false positives and/or finding other objects further behind the wall that may not be a stud, always start your scan in the 0.5in. or 1 in. StudScan Mode first.

After you detect the center of an object, Please Use Metal Scan to determine if the reading in Stud scan mode was a wood stud, metal stud, or pipe.

Metal Scan Detection

Metal Scan mode detects pipe up to 2.36 inches (60 mm) deep. Jurgen K wall canner will locate metal studs in Stud Scan, Deep Scan, and Metal Scan Modes. Since the stud finder is looking for a change in density behind drywall, not a particular material, in Stud Scan and Deep Scan Modes the detector will react to metal studs the same as it would for wooden studs.

Wire Warning Detection

Wire Warning detection indicates the presence of live, unshielded electrical wiring up to 2 inches (51 mm) deep. For Safety, in all modes, this wall scanner always detects and indicates the Live AC Wire.

Note: WireWarning Detection works in both StudScan / DeepScan / MetalScan Modes. The WireWarning Detection Icon will flash when live, unshielded wires are detected.

Step 1: Calibrate the tool before every scan

After choosing the mode, press and hold the scan button( on the side of the tool) to calibrate this tool. Wait for the reducing bars disappeared and beep to confirm calibration has completed.

In stud/deep mode, put it on the wall where you want to detect to calibrate it; In AC/Metal mode, put it in the air to calibrate it.

Step 2: Scan the wall

After Calibration, move the stud finder along the wall slowly, if you shake or lift the scanner accidentally, the device needs to be recalibrate.

Step 3: Find the location of the stud

When the signal bar is full and the beep alarm is loudest, it means you have found the center of an object. Mark it with your pencil.

Then choose the Metal Scan mode to test whether it is a metal. After you confirm that it is not a metal, it means that you found the center of a stud. (More details refer to the above description of “Metal Scan Detection”)Then you can drill it to hang the thing.
