S+S Inspection has designed a compact metal detector specifically for existing conveyor systems where space is at a premium: the Ecoline-D. It employs Sesotec GLS coil technology, which requires a very small metal-free zone, allowing unit length to be kept to a minimum. Manufactured in welded stainless steel with a bead blasted finish, the Ecoline-D comes in three standard conveyor widths: 200mm, 300mm and 400mm, with a 300mm high aperture.
The unit is open, hygienic and easy to clean while the conveyor belt can be changed by one person and without the use of tools.
The Sesotec Sensity control unit, which is suitable for detecting ferrous and non-ferrous metals in most packaged and unpackaged products, comes as standard. But the unit can be specified with the Genius or Primus control units if required. These both incorporate self-monitoring facilities, password protected multi-product memory and a new ECM combi-filter to guard against electrical interference.
