• Performance Validation System (PVS) regularly reminds you of necessary performance validation with different metals and sphere sizes
• Optional: Data transfer to USB interface or connection to the company network via SHARKNET® software
• Memory locations for up to 250 products
• Easy to use with intuitive and multilingual menus
• 4-level password system, automatic log out after time lapse
• Available as a system solution with additional devices

Function

Metal detector METAL SHARK® BD is used free-standing or combined with  conveyor belts or chutes. Using 3D detection technology, it detects the smallest magnetic and non-magnetic metal contaminants (iron, stainless steel, aluminium etc.) precisely and reliably even under difficult conditions.

The robust, closed stainless steel housing is easy to clean and therefore ideally suited to the food industry.

Specifications

• Electronics
  Digital signal processor, digital frequency generation, digital balance control, automatic calibration, digital noise filters, integrated flexible control functions
• Input
  2 analog 0…10 VDC (option: 4-20 mA) 8 freely configurable 24 V DC signals, e.g. for encoders, product recognition, buttons
• Output
  2 floating: “error” and “metal” 8 freely configurable 24 V DC signals, e.g. for metal or start conveyor belt
• Inspection method
  High-frequency magnetic field, multi-channel operation, balanced receiver coils
• Metal detection
  Ferrous, non-ferrous (e.g. aluminum or copper) and stainless steel
• Product compensation
  250 memory locations, TeachAssistant
• Enclosure rating
  IP 65, with optional IP66 or IP69k
• Environmental conditions
  Standard: -20° C to +40° C, (-4° F to +104° F) rel. humidity 20% up to 90% (non-condensing), > 95% (condensing) with closed control cabinet Optionally: -40° C or +55° C (-40° F or +131° F)
• Temperature of goods inspected
  Standard: -30° C to +55° C (-22° F to +131°F) Optionally: -40° C to +120° C (-40° F to 248° F)
• Power supply
  1 phase 110-230 V AC, 50/60 Hz, 20 W typ. (60 W max.)
• Interface
  RS232, optional USB and/or Ethernet (SHARKNET) for HACCP and IFS documentation
• Maintenance
  Maintenance-free, self-calibrating sensors
• Diagnostics
  Integrated diagnostics software for constant self monitoring. EMI display pinpoints frequency of interfering signals. This allows for precise filtering of interference, which results in improved detection and fewer false rejects. Remote maintenance and full diagnostics are reportable via Internet.

Accessories & Extras

The METAL SHARK^® BD can be perfectly adapted to your production by various special designs and accessories. Different temperature or hygiene requirements are taken into account as well as complicated product requirements for metal detection.

For your audit reliability, a Performance Verification Certificate can be issued by CASSEL service technicians during commissioning or maintenance.

• 3D-detection
  Additional photocells and upgraded control software (BOOST FACTOR) enable accurate evaluation during the detection period of each item inspected (MultiPhase).
• Multi-frequency
  Provides selection of four different frequencies, resulting in significantly increased performance in situations where product variations occur (density, location/position, temperature, etc.).
• Temperature extension cold
  Temperature range extended to -40°C (-40° F), resin seals remain elastic at low temperatures. Special insulation, heated enclosure and other features.
• Temperature extension hot
  Temperature range extended to +55° C, (+131° F), adapted enclosure, additional thermal insulation, replaceable filter fan, heat exchanger and/or active cooling units.
• High temperature extension for goods inspected
  Goods temperature up to +120°C (248° F) max. This option provides IP54 grade enclosure for the sensor.
• LPW/HPW
  IP enclosure upgrade through adapted sensor seal, installation of additional seals and dual housing for the controller electronics.
• Signalling devices (optical/acoustic)
  Stacking lights and signal horns/sirens available in different versions and IP protection classes.
• Control unit
  The control unit is mounted on the sensor as standard, wall mounting is also possible.
• Twinhead version
  To overcome the orientation effect, whereby conductive or magnetic contaminants run parallel to their respective fields, a special twinhead version is available. Two metal detectors at a 90° angle to one-another offset to ensure metal detection even in such cases.
• UltraSens model
  Fast Power Drive (FPD) significantly enhances metal detection and reliability in industrial environments that fail to comply with pertinent electromagnetic compatibility standards. Available with a range of enclosure grades.
• Ferrous in Foil model
  Special version for detecting magnetic metals packaged in aluminum-coated foils or aluminum trays.
• SHARKNET®
  The SHARKNET® software connects METAL SHARK® metal detectors with a central computer, providing centralized storage of all operating data plus batch and alarm documentation for HACCP and IFS compliance.
• Performance Verification Cerficate
  Issue of a Performance Verification Certificate (proof of functionality for audits) by CASSEL service technicians, e.g. during commissioning or maintenance possible.
• BRC-Kit
  With the optional BRC kit, the device meets the requirements of the Global Standard of the British Retail Consortium (BRC) for food safety and thus also the established and generally recognized standards for HACCP and IFS.
