Metal detector integrates with in-line equipment
Heat and Control has introduced a CEIA metal detector with the new CEIA THS/RB-800 system.
Only 31.5 inches (800mm) long, the system includes a CEIA THS/SL21 series Slim-Line Metal detector, round belt conveyor, an optional conveyor speed-sensing encoder, and operating controls, all pre-assembled on a sanitary support frame.
The polyurethane cord conveyor is available in three widths and can be removed without tools. Belt speed and aperture height are adjustable to accommodate a wide range of products.
The RB-800 system is available with different CEIA metal detectors, including models THS 21, 21E, 21E-3F. The MS21 model is also available, which features CEIA’s proprietary multi-spectrum technology that eliminates product effect rejects without reducing detection sensitivity, according to Heat and Control.
The MS21 typically detects smaller particles of 316 stainless steel, ferrous, and non-ferrous metals in items such as fresh spinach leaves and partially frozen foods, the company said.
