Safeline Pipeline Metal Detector

• Detection of metallic contaminants in pumped food products such as purees, sauces, and slurries.
• Ensuring product safety and quality in dairy, confectionery, and ready-meal production lines.
• Protecting downstream processing equipment from damage caused by metal foreign bodies.
• Compliance with food safety standards and regulations for contaminant control.

Typical throughput

Varies significantly based on product viscosity and pipe diameter; commonly found on units of this type, throughput can range from several hundred to several thousand litres per hour.

Power supply

Typically requires a standard industrial electrical supply, often 230V or 400V, 3-phase, 50Hz for the UK market.

Pipeline diameter

For this class of equipment, pipeline diameters commonly range from 50mm to 150mm, with the listed unit having an aperture of approximately 100mm.

Operating pressure

Designed to operate within typical food processing pipeline pressures, which can vary but are generally below 10 bar.

Construction material

Units of this type are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel for hygiene and durability, suitable for washdown environments.

Reject mechanism

Commonly features a pneumatic diverter valve to automatically remove contaminated product from the main flow.

• What types of metal can this detector identify?

  Safeline metal detectors are typically capable of detecting ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants. The sensitivity will vary based on the metal type and product characteristics.

• Is this unit suitable for wet or dry products?

• What maintenance is typically required for a pipeline metal detector?

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

• What is the purpose of the reject diverter valve and reject bin?

Metal detectors for food processing are regarded as essential safety equipment by buyers. Industry sentiment emphasizes their reliability in detecting ferrous and non-ferrous contaminants. When purchasing used units, buyers typically prioritize sensitivity settings, calibration history, and ease of integration with existing production lines. Common strengths include durability, consistent performance across varying product types, and straightforward maintenance requirements. Buyers value models offering clear documentation and documented regular servicing records.
