• Ensuring product safety and compliance with food industry standards.
• Protecting downstream processing machinery from damage caused by metal foreign objects.
• Quality control in confectionery, bakery, and ready-meal production lines.

Typical Specifications

Typical throughput

For this class of equipment, throughput can typically range from 20 to 60 metres per minute, depending on product size and weight.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on a standard industrial single-phase or three-phase supply, typically 230V or 400V, 50Hz.

Detection sensitivity

Ceia THS/MN detectors are known for high sensitivity to ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants, typically down to sub-millimetre levels.

Conveyor belt material

Conveyor belts on food-grade metal detectors are typically made from FDA-approved materials such as PU or PVC.

Environmental rating

For food processing applications, these units commonly have an IP65 or higher rating, suitable for washdown environments.

Control interface

Modern units commonly feature a touchscreen interface for parameter adjustment and data logging.
