Dear Minelab, I am a CTX 3030 user from germany and we have here a big discussion in one of our treasure hunting boards: Is the CTX "out of the box" waterproof or is the waterproof headphone necessary. Please answer me the following question: Is the CTX without the headphone module and the screwed black cap on the headphone connector completely waterproof? Can I put it completely under water? best regards Andy
Dear Mr. xxx We thank you for your query. You are indeed correct in saying that with the cap on the unit is waterproof. The items that are not waterproof are The Wireless Module Koss Standard Headphones Any of your batteries when disconnected from the unit. The Headphone Module I hope this answers your query Regards Finbarr

Hello Andy, Once assembled correctly the CTX3030 is waterproof. The battery needs to be secured, and please ensure the orange/red O-Ring is in the Control Box housing. The headphone module is not waterproof. It is good practice to use the black screw cap on the headphone connector to prevent dirt getting in, but the connector is waterproof without this cap. You also need to ensure the USB port on the back of the interface is closed. Please see a list of the items that are not water proof here. The Alkaline and Lithium Ion battery is only waterproof when connected to the detector Koss Headphone is not waterproof Wireless Audio Module is not waterproof Headphone Module is not waterproof
Hi Andy, Yes, the CTX is completely waterproof without the headphone module. This is clearly shown in the “Go Anywhere With The CTX3030” video, you can view it here: Sie haben nicht die Berechtigung Links zu sehen.Registrieren oder Einlogen

CTX 3030 BATTERY SEALING – CARE AND MAINTENANCEWith care and maintenance, the installed battery forms a water tight fit to the detector. However in some instances a few customers have reported the CTX 3030 battery seal leaking. Following investigation we determined that in these instances the leaking has been caused by sand or grit contaminating the o-ring - as seen in the example photos below: ... Minelab CTX 3030 - Diskussion zur WasserdichtigkeitClearing the sand and grit from the O-ring and its mating surfaces, and re-fitting the o-ring carefully, will ensure the units do not leak to at least 3 meters (10ft) depth.Minelab recommends that prior to submersing in water, care is taken to ensure the battery sealing O-ring, the O-ring seating groove and the battery O-ring mating face are undamaged and kept clean.
