BOSCH D-TECT 120 PROFESSIONAL DETECTOR | WALL SCANNER
Product Highlights
The detector D-tect 120 Professional is an intuitive radar scanner developed for almost all materials.
Spot measurement provides accurate detection on narrow surfaces, while the centre finder shows the precise location of an object's centre.
Additionally, Dual Power Source technology allows for use with both a 12 V Li-ion battery or standard alkaline batteries.
Equipment & Application
It is suitable for a range of craftsmanship disciplines to locate pipes filled with water and cables as well as to avoid drilling mishaps
when performing carpentry, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC applications.
Additional Information
The D-tect 120 Professional offers a simple user interface with three self-explanatory selection buttons for adjusting
to various applications and it is able to detect objects at depths of up to 12 cm.
Audio and visual signals notify the user when objects are detected in the wall.

A) Depends on operating mode, material and size of the objects, as well as material and condition of the base material
B) Only non-conductive deposits occur, whereby occasional temporary conductivity caused by condensation is expected.
C) Depends on battery in use
By selecting the operating mode, you can adjust the measuring tool to different wall materials and, if required, prevent the detection of unwanted objects.
If the wall material is not known, you should begin with the universal operating mode.
Universal operating mode
The universal operating mode is suitable for
most applications in masonry. Metal objects,
water-filled plastic pipes, electrical lines and
cables can be detected. Hollow spaces in brickwork or empty plastic pipes with a diameter of
less than 2 cm remain potentially undetectable. The maximum measuring depth is 6 cm.
Concrete operating mode
The concrete operating mode is particularly
suitable for applications in reinforced concrete. Rebar, metal pipes, water-filled plastic
pipes, electrical lines and cables can be detected. The maximum measuring depth is 12 cm.
Drywall operating mode
The drywall operating mode is suitable for detecting timber joists, metal supports, electrical
lines and cables in drywalls (wood, plasterboard, etc.). Water-filled plastic pipes can also
be detected. Empty plastic pipes normally cannot be detected. The maximum measuring depth is 6 cm.
