Ceia T/21E Metal Detector

• Detecting metallic contaminants in packaged food products to ensure consumer safety.
• Inspecting bulk materials such as grains, powders, or aggregates for unwanted metal.
• Quality control in pharmaceutical production lines to identify foreign objects in tablets or capsules.
• Protecting downstream machinery from damage caused by tramp metal in processing streams.
• Ensuring compliance with food safety standards and regulations in various industries.

Typical throughput

Varies significantly based on product size and line speed; units of this type commonly handle hundreds to thousands of items per minute.

Detection sensitivity

Typically capable of detecting ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants down to sub-millimetre sizes, depending on product effect.

Aperture size

Commonly available in various aperture dimensions to suit different product sizes and conveyor widths.

Power supply

Units of this class typically require a standard single-phase industrial power supply, commonly 230V, 50Hz.

Construction material

Often features stainless steel construction for hygiene and durability, particularly in food processing environments.

Environmental rating

Typically designed for industrial environments, with some models offering IP65 or higher ratings for washdown capability.

Rejection system compatibility

Commonly integrates with various rejection mechanisms such as air blast, pushers, or retracting conveyors.

• What types of metal can this detector identify?

  Ceia metal detectors, including the T/21E series, are typically designed to detect ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants. The exact sensitivity for each type can vary.

• Is this unit suitable for wet or washdown environments?

• Can this metal detector be integrated into an existing production line?

• What maintenance is typically required for a Ceia T/21E?

• Does this unit come with a rejection system?

• How is the detection sensitivity set and adjusted?

Metal detectors for food processing remain reliable workhorses in quality control operations. Buyers typically value their durability and consistent contamination detection capability. When purchasing used units, inspecting calibration history and sensitivity settings proves essential. Industry sentiment favours machines with straightforward maintenance records and minimal downtime. Common strengths include robust construction, straightforward operation, and cost-effectiveness compared to new equipment. Prospective buyers should verify functional testing documentation and assess integration compatibility with existing production lines.
