Stanley Stud Sensor 200
The Stud Sensor 200 uses electronic signals to locate the center of
studs, joists or live AC wires through drywall or other common building
materials. Once the center of a stud has been detected in one pass
across the surface, the Stud Sensor 200 gives a visual display and
sounds an audible tone. A marking channel allows you to easily note
the stud center and edges on the wall.
Note: Read all instructions prior to operating the Stud Sensor 200 and
DO NOT remove any labels from the tool.
WARNING:
