- Typical aperture size
- Varies significantly, but commonly ranges from 100mm to 500mm in width and 50mm to 300mm in height for this class of equipment.
- Power supply
- Typically requires a single-phase or three-phase electrical supply, commonly 230V or 400V, 50Hz, for units of this type.
- Detection sensitivity
- For this class of equipment, sensitivity is typically in the range of 0.5mm to 3.0mm for ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants, depending on product effect.
- Conveyor speed
- Commonly adjustable, with typical speeds ranging from 10 to 60 metres per minute, depending on the application and product size.
- Construction material
- Often constructed from stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and durability, particularly in food and pharmaceutical applications.
- Environmental protection
- Many units feature an IP rating, typically IP65 or higher, indicating protection against dust and water ingress.
