Heavy Duty Gravity Flow Metal Detector from METTLER TOLEDO Safeline
Tampa, Florida, June 28, 2007 - Mettler-Toledo Safeline, Inc., the worldwide leader in metal detection and x-ray inspection equipment, introduces its heavy-duty gravity flow metal detector. Designed for high volume dry processing applications, the GravityFlowHD metal detector is easy to operate, compact, and has a unique high-speed reject system that minimizes product loss.
Providing the high sensitivity that users have come to expect from Safeline, the GravityFlowHD detects ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants in bulk powdered products. Constructed of stainless steel with a user-friendly, washdown-rated control panel, this detector enables simplified operation and maintains a stringent inspection standard.
The system also offers simple in-line testing and performance validation. Access and retrieval ports are supplied on the inlet and outlet pipes. Line personnel simply drop a standard test sample embedded with a metallic test ball into the product flow. Removable stainless steel grids that are mounted on the accept and reject ports allow the sample to be easily recovered. The detector automatically calls for performance checks when required and issues a "Test Overdue" warning if the test is not promptly completed. Once the test is successfully completed, the detector reverts to normal operation.
Due to the GravityFlowHD's compact design, it fits easily into most line configurations. Safeline's patented "Zero Metal Free Zone" (ZMFZ) technology allows both a reduction in the length of the infeed pipe and the reject mechanism to be positioned close to the metal detector without metallic interference or false rejects.
Safeline's unique Sealed-Tite "cowbell" style diverter reject incorporates high-speed pneumatics with a cushioned cylinder. This highly efficient reject style minimizes system height and prevents leakage through the reject port when inspecting dusty product such as flour. It also enables large granular items to be inspected without danger of blockage or wear. The complete mechanism can be quickly dismantled without tools for inspection and cleaning.
Like all Safeline products, the GravityFlowHD Metal Detector is backed by the most comprehensive service network in the industry as well as 24/7 technical telephone support.
