A weak signal can also imply other non-stud objects, like wires and pipes, are present in the area being scanned. The MultiScanner i520 includes ACT (Auto Correcting Technology) that automatically corrects common user errors, such as when scanning begins over a stud, in addition to a low battery indicator to alert its users to replace its battery for optimal performance results.

In StudScan mode, the Zircon i520 locates the center, edges, and direction of wood or metal studs up to 3/4 (19 mm) of an inch deep. Switch the i520 stud finder over to DeepScan mode and double the scanning depth to 1.5 inches (38 mm) deep and enables scanning for joists in some ceilings and floors. Metal Scan mode of the MS i520 provides the ability to locate non-ferrous metal, such as copper pipes, up to 1.5 inches (38 mm) deep and ferrous metal, such as rebar, up to 3 inches (75 mm) deep. Using Metal Scan mode, this Zircon studsensor can find studs behind lath and plaster walls, tile, drywall and stucco walls by identifying the consistent pattern of screw or nail heads in the studs.

Additionally, the MultiScanner i520 is programmed with a WireWarning Detection feature that indicates the presence of live unshielded electrical wires up to 2 inches (50 mm) deep when using the stud and metal scan modes.

To detect, locate, map, and trace the live wires, simply switch over to the AC Scan function which acts as a live wire detector and finds and traces live, unshielded AC wiring up to 2 inches (50 mm) deep. The Zircon MultiScanner i520 is a perfect choice for serious users, such as home improvement hobbyists and professional contractors.
