March 11, 2024

CEJN North America recently introduced the first-ever commercial metal- and X-ray-detectable plastic blow gun—the 208 Detect—reducing the risks of accidental contamination, product rejections, expensive recalls, and waste. Made from food-grade, detectable plastic, 208 Detect and adheres to European Commission Regulation No. 1935/2004 and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Code of Federal Regulations 21.170-199 standards.

Featuring metal detectable seals and a stainless steel valve, the 208 Detect minimizes the risk of foreign body contamination. The blow gun is light, has high chemical resistance, and can withstand extreme temperatures. 208 Detect can be used for a variety of compressed air applications, including where a blow gun is used in close proximity with food during production: blow-off, air cleaning, drying (e.g., blowing food debris off equipment, conveyors, and drying of utensils), meat and dairy processing, food packaging, and vacuum sealing.

208 Detect complies with HACCP, IFS, and BRC procedures, ensuring optimal safety and reducing the threat of costly recalls and product waste.
