The texts and illustrations in this instruction manual are for the exclusive purpose of explaining how to operate and handle the GLS metal detector. S+S accepts no responsibility for damage resulting from the use or misuse of this equipment. All appropriate safety rules and regulations for the use of this equipment must be adhered to.
1. General notes 1.6 Important functional notes The GLS metal detector offers best possible reliability for the detection and separation of metal con- taminations. Despite detection, however, the following circumstances still may be the cause for not separated metal particles: Occurrence of metal conglomerations, i.e.
2. Design and method of operation Design and method operation 2.1 Functional principle The material to be inspected (bulk or lump material) passes the detector head (2) on a belt conveyor (1). The lower part of the belt can be put also through the detector head (3). The material is penetrated within the aperture of the detector head by a high frequency electro- magnetic field, which is generated by the control unit and the transmitter coil.
2. Design and method of operation 2.2 Functional elements (1) Mounting elements for installation (2) Coil connection box (3) Connection cable for electronic unit Options: (4) Signalling device 2.3 Combination scopes Different Control units can be used to control the detector head: GENIUS+, PRIMUS or SENSITY.
3. Dimensions and technical data Dimensions and technical data 3.1 Technical data sheet, see annex 3.2 Interfaces, see technical data sheet in the annex 3.3 Environmental conditions for operation, storage, and transport The environment of the metal detector should be free of vibrations, of other influencing magnetic fields, of chemical vapours such as softeners, chlorine, and similar substances.
4. Safety Safety S+S equipment conforms with all official technical safety regulations. However, as a manufacturer we believe it is our duty to make you aware of the following information. The following safety and danger notes are intended for your protection, for the protection of third parties, and for the protection of the equipment.
4. Safety 4.6 Safety information for storage and transport Always observe the information in paragraph 9 to avoid any transport damage and per- sonal injuries. 4.7 Notes on residual risks Electrical circuits may still be live even after having been isolated from the mains. Switch off immediately if a fault occurs.
5. Commissioning Commissioning 5.1 Mechanical installation Use only enough stable lifting harnesses for big and heavy detector heads. Take care for a stable and vibrationproof mounting! Metal-free zone must be strictly observed! Within the metal-free zone no metallic parts must be situated. For moving metal parts (pusher) the metal-free zone extends.

Control unit mounted apart of the detector head: Changes of the connection cables between the detector head GLS and the control unit must be reconfirmed by S+S. Only original cables must be used otherwise the CE-certification become unvalid. The connections cable must be installed separate from other power and control lines and carefully fixed or layed into a cable duct.
5. Commissioning 5.2 Connections If the connection cable between detector head and control unit has been removed reconnect it accord- ing to the sketch: 5.2.1 Control Unit PRIMUS / SENSITY Electrical work should only be carried out by qualified personnel. Before removing cover plates etc make sure the equipment is isolated from mains or external voltage.
6. Errors and fault rectification Errors and fault rectification If you should have any questions, or if there should be any malfunctions, please contact the manufacturer. If you have any questions, please state the equipment type and serial number ! Service telephone: +49 (0) 85 54 - 30 8-180...
7. Maintenance and cleaning Maintenance and cleaning Prior to any maintenance and cleaning work, disconnect the device from the mains supply. 7.1 Maintenance Although the GLS is maintenance-free, it is useful to check the equipment periodically: Check for loose bolts or nuts at the plastic bars Remove any objects laying on the detector head Remove any objects in the detector passage between slide and detector (remains of bulky goods or accumulated dust)
8. Spare parts Spare parts If you should have any questions please state equipment type and serial number! Spare parts and wearing parts must always be obtained from the manufacturer of from a supplier that is certified by the manufacturer. 8.1 Spare parts drawing 8.2 Spare parts list Item...
9. Shipping, preservation, waste disposal, transport, storage Shipping, preservation, waste disposal, transport, storage 9.1 Shipping, preservation, waste disposal Choose packing that is suitable for the type and size of unit, taking into account whether the shipment is for export by sea or airfreight, or for national or international road transport The packing material must protect the goods from all damage under normal transport conditions.
9. Shipping, preservation, waste disposal, transport, storage 9.2 Transport • In order to avoid injury or damage to the unit it must be handled properly. In addition to following the instructions below, general health and safety good practice and specific accident prevention guidelines should be observed.
