Please observe the locally applicable and professional safety
and accident prevention regulations.
➜
Only transport metal detectors in their original E+L packaging.
➜
Check the metal detector for damage.
➜
Dispose of packaging material in the proper manner.
Decisive factors in the detection of metal particles are the material
they are made of, their weight, shape, distance to the detector head
surface and speed.
The following table shows typical values for a
sensitivity of 2 mg
Fe
, web speed being 3 to 200 m/min and web width (AB) of up to
3600 mm.
Sensitivity deteriorates considerably when the distance of the
metal particles to the probe head surface increases.
Typical sensitivity at 2 mg Fe:

In the case of
needle-shaped
metal particles, sensitivity is
addition-
ally
dependent on the position in which the metal needles pass over
the probe head surface.
