Powered by Multi-Dimensional Multi-Frequency (MD-MF) Technology

Garrett’s Multi-Dimensional Multi-Frequency (MD-MF) Technology provides deeper and more accurate target analysis and identification. Targets are detected and analyzed using multiple frequencies simultaneously, as well as utilizing multiple dimensions of conductivity and ferrous (iron) content.

The world’s first fully transformable metal detector series!

As your skills increase, you can purchase a software upgrade to convert your VX7 into the VX9 model, which includes additional operating frequencies, more advanced features, more power, and a three-tiered Target ID graphical display.

Advanced Features

The Garrett Vortex VX7 is powerful, versatile, wireless-ready, and able to tackle all terrains. It has a wide array of features and technical specifications that help the user find less trash and more treasure.

  • Frequency Choices: Choose to detect in a powerful single frequency (choice of 5 kHz or 13 kHz), or in one of Vortex’s simultaneous multi-frequency options (Multi or Multi-Salt).
  • Hi-Resolution Ground Balance: Features 175 points of ground balance resolution for terrains ranging from ferrous ground to saltwater beaches.
  • 5-Tone Audible Target ID: Provides five distinct audio tones for greater target identification.
  • Hi-Resolution Discrimination: Remove certain ranges of metallic targets from audible detection. Includes full range of iron (ferrous) target discrimination and the ability to “notch out” (remove from audible detection) other ranges of non-ferrous targets.
  • Rechargeable battery: The built-in lithium-ion battery provides approximately 15 hours of use, enough to get you through a full day of searching on one charge.
  • Iron Audio: Allows users to hear discriminated iron and avoid digging undesired flat iron targets such as bottle caps.
  • Iron Volume control: Allows user to decrease the volume of undesired iron targets while maintaining the standard volume for non-ferrous targets. This enhances the focus on more desired targets.

Technical Specifications:

  • Searchcoil: The Vortex VX-7 comes with an 8.5” x 11” DD Raider™ searchcoil, designed for maximum depth and sensitivity. A searchcoil cover is included to protect your coil.
  • Detection Modes: Includes five detection modes, plus Pinpoint: Zero Discrimination, Standard Mode (ideal for most coin, jewelry, and relic hunters), US Coins Mode (includes discrimination pattern ideal for U.S. coins), Beach Mode, and Custom Mode.
  • MD-MF Target ID scale: On the VX7, metallic targets are identified on a two-tiered Target ID display, with one scale representing ferrous (iron) targets and another scale representing non-ferrous targets.
  • Reaction Speed control: User can increase the detector’s reaction speed, allowing better ability to separate adjacent metallic targets. This can help you uncover treasure targets that might normally be hidden by adjacent trash.
