D1000X Ultrasound Detector: Unmatched Precision for Wildlife Acoustic Monitoring

Next-generation professional bat detector featuring 16-bit recording, time expansion, and high-sensitivity tuning for expert species identification.

The D1000X stands as the definitive tool for researchers and wildlife specialists seeking to capture the acoustic secrets of the natural world. Ultrasound detectors are essential for converting sounds that are inaudible to the human ear into perceptible frequencies, allowing for the precise identification of various bat species, as each utilizes a unique frequency. Based on the latest innovation from Pettersson, this professional model integrates digital heterodyne systems, frequency division, and time expansion capabilities, ensuring unprecedented versatility in biodiversity studies.

Equipped with the advanced "Solid Dielectric Capacitance" microphone, the D1000X offers a superior dynamic range with minimal noise and distortion levels. It is the first device in its class to incorporate an internal 16-bit recorder, eliminating the need for external equipment and allowing data to be stored directly onto a CompactFlash card. With a tuner spanning from 10 to 200 kHz and the ability to expand ultrasounds up to x30 for detailed post-analysis, this equipment is ideal for capturing up to 3 seconds of sound continuously or via signal activation, facilitating professional analysis through software and the documentation of field comments.
