Preparing to install a detector
The pharmaceutical metal detector is dispatched from Loma with the wheels locked.
Connecting the detector
• Adjust the height of the detector by slackening the height clamp and sliding the head up
or down the stand tube. The stand is supplied with an internal gas strut, aiding adjustment
by giving the detector an effective zero mass. Re-tighten the height clamp.
• Tilt the metal detector by slackening the tilt clamp slightly and carefully tilting the head to
the required angle. The reject mechanism must always be on the lower side. Re-tighten
the tilt clamp.
• The height may now need further adjustment.
• Lock all four wheels by means of the integral brakes.
Connecting electrical supplies
Pharmaceutical metal detectors are supplied with fitted mains plugs. No wiring is required.
Checking the detector
• Check that all guards are in place and are secure and that the infeed and outfeed of the
system are clear of obstructions.
