Sartorius Observer metal detector

The Sartorius Observer metal detector is equipped with specially designed sensors based on magnetic field measuring technology.

The products to be tested are premagnetised on the infeed side of the belt, and the magnetic field sensor unit detects remanent magnetism of any metal particles present, even at high belt speeds.

The unit detects stainless steel particles if shearing or deformation has altered their crystal structure, as is common during a normal production run, and they have become magnetiseable as a result.

Features include: keypad overlay with nine keys and three LEDs; four line, 20-character, backlit LCD; interactive prompts for operator guidance; adjustable speed for conveyor belt control; displacement proportional to the length for the 'metal signal' up to the point of rejection; position-specific rejection by light barrier synchronisation; rejection monitoring optional; RS232/RS422 interface port available for connection of a printer for report generation; and capability for centralised data acquisition by networkable QA system on request.
