Proton Elic LB 16
The Proton Elic LB-16 is the flagship detection system developed by Assuva Savunma Sanayi in Türkiye, designed for professional applications in archaeology, geology, defense, and underground exploration. As the most advanced model in the LB series, it combines thermal imaging technology with a multi-point magnetic sensor array, delivering precise detection of metallic objects, cavities, and underground anomalies.
With a range of up to 1000 meters and a depth capability of 50 meters, the LB-16 offers unmatched performance in field operations. Its hybrid detection system—thermal camera (64-pixel resolution, 60° viewing angle) and magnetic sensors (16-point JEO PHASE system)—ensures accurate readings even in complex terrains.
The device can also be equipped with an IF Doppler Radar add-on, enabling detection of living beings behind barriers such as wood, PVC, or panels. Portable and lightweight, the LB-16 is powered by a rechargeable battery with efficient charging cycles, making it ideal for extended outdoor missions.
Functions & Advanced Technology
- 1. Thermal Imaging System
64-pixel resolution (4×16 matrix) with 60° viewing angle detects thermal differences in the environment, highlighting underground cavities or anomalies. Visual indication via LED panel (red for metallic targets, blue for cavities). - 2. Magnetic Detection System
16 magnetic sensors (JEO PHASE system) measure DC magnetic field strength at multiple points simultaneously. Identifies metallic objects and underground structures by analyzing magnetic anomalies with directional data output. - 3. Hybrid Dual-Mode Operation
User-selectable thermal or magnetic modes. Both systems can be used independently or combined for higher accuracy, reducing false positives and increasing detection reliability. - 4. Doppler Radar Add-On (Optional)
IF Doppler Radar integration detects living beings behind barriers (wood, PVC, panels). Expands use cases beyond static detection to biological presence sensing. - 5. Advanced Data & Connectivity
Bluetooth wireless connection for seamless data transfer. Compatible with PC software for advanced analysis. 32 LEDs on rear panel provide clear visualization of 16 detection zones.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the maximum detection range of the Proton Elic LB-16?
A: The LB-16 has a maximum horizontal detection range of 1000 meters and can detect targets at depths of up to 50 meters, depending on soil conditions and target size.
Q: Can I use the thermal and magnetic systems simultaneously?
A: Yes, the LB-16 operates in hybrid dual-mode. You can use either system independently or combine both for maximum accuracy. The systems work together to reduce false positives and provide comprehensive detection data.
Q: Is the Doppler Radar module included or sold separately?
A: The IF Doppler Radar module is available as an optional add-on. It’s included in advanced kits for detecting living beings behind barriers. Standard packages include the main unit with thermal and magnetic systems.
Q: How does the LED indication system work?
A: The rear panel features 32 LEDs arranged in 4 rows × 4 lines (16 detection zones). Red LEDs indicate metallic targets, while blue LEDs indicate cavities or underground anomalies. The system provides clear visual feedback for precise target location.
Q: What is the warranty period and what does it cover?
A: The Proton Elic LB-16 comes with a 2-year manufacturer warranty from Assuva Detector. This covers defects in materials and workmanship. The warranty card and certification documents are included in the package.
Q: Can the device be used for underwater detection?
A: While the LB-16 is designed for rugged field conditions, it is not fully submersible. It should be protected from direct water immersion. The device is ideal for terrestrial, archaeological, and geological applications.
