About the metal
detector range
The unit can be free standing or suspended from overhead fixings depending upon the
application.
The unit consists of a search head and controls, with an auxiliary electrical enclosure
mounted on a reject diverter system. A circular product pipe is supplied for connection to the
existing product pipework via a flexible gaiter. The reject diverter is designed to allow easy
access to, and removal of, the cow bell bucket to enable quick and efficient cleaning.
The reject diverter output consists of two rectangular chutes with flanges to allow the
connection of suitable pipework for guiding the product into either the following packaging
machinery for good product or into a secure reject container for contaminated product.
Short frame model
This model is intended for use in a dry environment with product that exhibits no effect when
exposed to the field of the detector and where installation space is limited.
Long frame model
The design of this system is similar to the short frame model. But unlike the short frame unit
this model is intended for use in a harsh environment with product that exhibits an effect
when exposed to the field of the detector and where installation space is sufficient to take
the longer system length.
Stand-alone models
Two models are available:
• Slimline contained field (CF) model.
• Catalogue contained field (CF) model.
Slimline contained field model
The Slimline contained field (CF) metal detector is less sensitive to fixed and moving metal
that is in close proximity to the aperture. It is suitable for use in situations where space and
the available metal-free area is limited, eg above bagmakers.
The standard aperture of a CF metal detector is circular, with fixed metal collar top and
bottom. The overall depth depends on the size of the aperture.
