1.6 Important functional notes
The GLS metal detector offers best possible reliability for the detection and separation of metal con-
taminations.
Despite detection, however, the following circumstances still may be the cause for not separated metal
particles:
-
Occurrence of metal conglomerations, i.e.
accumulations of many metal particles in one batch of the product flow, with a resulting malfunction
of the separating mechanism (jamming of products, overfilling of eject container, etc.)
-
The distance between products is too small, which means that a metal signal cannot be clearly
assigned to the respective product.
-
The conveyor speed is too high or too low.
-
Type, size, and position of the metal contamination.
For these reasons no general guarantee can be given that the unit will operate with
100% accuracy.
