Eriez PrecisionGuard X8-C Upgrade Kit

Eriez has introduced a program to help food, pharmaceutical and packaging users upgrade their legacy Xtreme Metal Detectors using the PrecisionGuard X8-C Upgrade Kit. The program is designed to quickly modernise existing systems, providing enhanced sensitivity, smart connectivity and intuitive operation without the need for a complete system replacement.

Designed as a direct ‘drop-in’ retrofit for installed Xtreme Metal Detectors, the kit features the same shell dimensions and footprint to facilitate fast, seamless set-up. By replacing only the electronics and user interface, operators can continue using their existing sensing head, conveyor and reject device while gaining advanced performance, data integration and user control.

With a capacity to extend metal detector lifespan by seven to 10 years, the kit introduces features such as: large capacitive touchscreen interface with intuitive controls; high-speed processor; 304 stainless steel construction rated for IP69 washdown conditions (optional 316 SS available); and built-in web user interface technology (replaces SMART Link) with optional Wi-Fi bridge.
