Loma Superscan micro Pipeline metal detector

• Detecting metallic contaminants in pumped liquid or paste products.
• Ensuring product safety and quality in food processing lines.
• Protecting downstream processing equipment from metal damage.
• Complying with industry standards and regulations for foreign body detection.

Pipe Diameter

This specific unit features a 100mm pipe diameter, suitable for various pumped product lines.

Detection Sensitivity

Loma Superscan micro units are known for high sensitivity, typically detecting very small ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants.

Reject Mechanism

This unit includes a pneumatic reject system, commonly used for diverting contaminated product from the main flow.

Construction Material

The mobile frame and product contact parts are typically stainless steel, suitable for hygienic environments.

Power Supply

Units of this type commonly operate on standard industrial single-phase or three-phase power, typically 230V or 400V AC.

Throughput

Throughput capacity for pipeline detectors is dependent on pump rate and product viscosity, but units of this class are designed for continuous operation.

Footprint

Mounted on a mobile frame, this unit offers flexibility in placement within a processing line, with a relatively compact footprint for its capabilities.
