  Detection of all tramp metals-ferrous, maganese steels and non ferrous.

  Heavy duty construction for quarrying and mining applications - no belt cutting required for installation.

  Ease of operation, adjustable sensitivity/detection level - facility for material effect.

  Available with a choice of electronic control units and options.

Detail

The electronic MDB5/QTA metal detector provides an automatic and continuous search to be made of all raw bulk or processed materials which are non-metallic or non-conductive.

Materials to be inspected are generally transported by belt conveyors.

The search coil is supplied from a range of standard sizes or made to customer requirements with aperture height to suit the process.

The QTA search coil dismantles one end to facilitate installation without the need for cutting and re-vulcanising of the belt.

Alternative search coil configurations are available for special or extra deep burden applications.

The metal detector is available with a choice of electronic control units.

The basic MDB5 or the higher specification MDB8.

Both are housed in IP65 wallfixing cabinets for siting locally or remotely from the search coil.

Detection of all tramp metal, ferrous, manganese steels and non ferrous can be achieved.

Upon detection facilities for belt interlock, audible/visual alarms, marking devices and automatic diversion systems are available.

Additional features include product compensation for any bulk material which has a product effect.

Options include "autotest" self checking facility and shift register for down stream conversion.

The MDB5/QTA affords the highest standard of protection to all quarrying, mining and processing plants, against all forms of tramp metal from digger teeth, hammers, liner plates down to small nuts and bolts.

Typical materials inspected include granite, limestone, gypsum, cement rock, marine sand and gravel, gritstone, whinstone/basalt, sandstone, coal, mineral ores, etc.

Rugged construction ensures stability and successful operation under arduous and difficult site conditions, providing not only capital plant protection but also reductions in loss of production and down time.
