New Eriez Xtreme Vertical Drop Metal Detectors Achieve Highest Levels of Sensitivity in Gravity Free-Fall Applications

December 2, 2015

New Xtreme® Vertical Drop Metal Detectors from Eriez® are engineered to detect the presence of ferrous, nonferrous and stainless metal contaminants in gravity free-fall applications, particularly for food processing, packaging, pharmaceutical and plastics/rubber applications.

Xtreme Vertical Drop Metal Detectors are designed with the shortest overall height in the industry and offer best in class sensitivity. These units feature quick release Jacobs connections, remote electronics, anti-static food grade pipe, automatic reject valve and stainless steel ceiling support plate. Available in wall or floor mount designs, Xtreme Vertical Drop Metal Detectors strike a balance between absolute detection of all metal contaminants and elimination of false signals that slow down production.

These state-of-the-art metal detectors offer easy set-up and reporting as well as remote access capabilities. They feature a 7-inch easy-to-use touch screen interface, various pre-programmed languages, multiple USB and interface ports, low air pressure alert and consolidated power supply.

Besides enhancing product purity, Eriez Xtreme Vertical Drop Metal Detectors protect vital downstream equipment from metal in the product stream, thereby reducing machinery downtime and maintenance costs.
