Description

The single-surface meTRON 05 S Metal Detector automatically and continuously detects encapsulated and loose tramp ferrous, stainless-steel and non-ferrous metals. The single-surface design is easy to install without excessive plant modifications and there is no requirement for a slider plate.
The high-sensitivity meTRON 05 S is suitable for medium burden depths in rough industrial environments. The metal detector includes a separate electronic control panel for processing and condition monitoring.

Operation

As with other Metal Detectors, on detecting any tramp metal, a signal is generated in the search coil and transmitted to the control unit. This signal is processed and used to control other circuits, which include the interlocking of the belt conveyor, operating audible or visual alarms, belt interlocking, marking devices or automatic rejection mechanisms.

Typical tramp metal detected includes:

Washers
Nails
Screws
Nuts and bolts
Wire
Swarf

Applications

The meTRON 05 S is designed as a high-sensitivity metal detector for flat conveyors, vibratory chutes and material slides. Typical applications include textiles, plastics and recycling.
