Safeline Pipeline metal detector

• Detecting metallic contaminants in pumped or free-flowing liquid, paste, or slurry products.
• Ensuring product safety and quality in dairy, beverage, confectionery, and meat processing lines.
• Protecting downstream processing equipment from damage caused by metal foreign bodies.
• Compliance with food safety standards and retailer codes of practice for contaminant detection.

Aperture Diameter

This unit features a 150mm diameter aperture, commonly found on units designed for medium-flow pipeline applications.

Construction Material

Typically constructed from stainless steel, suitable for hygienic environments and washdown procedures.

Reject Mechanism

Equipped with a pneumatic reject system, which is a common and effective method for diverting contaminated product from the main flow.

Product Compatibility

Designed for pumped products; the specific viscosity and temperature range should be confirmed with the seller.

Power Supply

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

Air Supply

A clean, dry compressed air supply is required for the pneumatic reject system, typically 5-7 bar.

• What types of metal can this detector identify?

  Safeline pipeline metal detectors are designed to detect ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants. The sensitivity will vary based on product characteristics and contaminant type.

• Is this unit suitable for wet environments?

• Can the aperture size be changed?

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

• How is this unit integrated into an existing processing line?

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.
