Garrett PD 6500i is the global bestseller metal detector gate from Garrett (USA) — 200K+ units deployed worldwide. Position: tier event/school/courthouse — cost-effective than CEIA by 30-40% but still cert NIJ-0601.02 + FAA.
Key differences vs CEIA HI-PE/G3: (1) 33 zone vs 18 zone — more precise positioning (knee, ankle, shoulder details); (2) 20 ground-tested programs — auto-tune for terrain (concrete floor / wooden stage / metal grate); (3) Battery 20h backup vs 12h CEIA — event outdoor multi-day; (4) Operating -37°C to +70°C vs CEIA -20°C — extreme weather.
Recommendation: choose Garrett PD 6500i for outdoor events + medium budget. Choose CEIA HI-PE/G3 for aviation airport + bank tier-1 (CEIA brand premium for bank audits). An Ninh Số distributes both brands.

Câu hỏi thường gặp
- PD 6500i vs CEIA HI-PE/G3 which one to choose?
Cost-sensitive event + school + commercial: PD 6500i (30-40% cheaper, 33 good zones). Aviation + bank tier-1 + premium audit: CEIA HI-PE/G3 (premium brand, auto-calibration without need for technician). Both FAA/TSA certified OK.
- Is it necessary to have a technician calibrate periodically?
PD 6500i: manual calibration recommended every 6-12 months by a certified technician. CEIA HI-PE: auto-calibrates every 8 hours without needing a technician. That is why CEIA has a higher cost, but the 5-year TCO may be equivalent.
