ZKTeco ZK-D160 Handheld Metal Detector

Overview

The ZKTeco ZK-D160 is a handheld metal detector wand for body and bag checks. It picks up all metals and alerts with sound and light, or with vibration and light when a quiet check is wanted. It is used at exhibition centres, casinos, factories, examination rooms and schools, and as the follow-up tool when a walk-through detector alarms.
