Function

METAL SHARK® GF (Gravity Feed) is used for pipelines with free-falling products to detect metal contaminations in continuously flowing granulates or powders such as sugar, flour, grain or spices. The sensitive sensors detect even the smallest metal contaminants, and fast-switching separation flaps remove them directly from the product stream during ongoing production.

Accessories and Extras

Der METAL SHARK® GF compact can be perfectly adapted to your production by various special designs and accessories. Different temperature or hygiene requirements are taken into account as well as complicated product requirements for metal detection or the environment (ATEX).

• SHARKNET®
  The SHARKNET® software connects METAL SHARK® metal detectors with a central computer, providing centralized storage of all operating data plus batch and alarm documentation for HACCP and IFS compliance.
• BRC-Kit
  BRC-Kit for a fail-safe system according to the guidelines of the British Retail Consortium with metal detection alarm, product counter, product jam monitoring, required covers, rejection system as wel as monitoring of container (container full), air pressure of the reject system and reject functionality.
• High temperature extension for product
  Product temperature up to max. +120°C, with this option sensor#s enclosure rating is IP54.
• LPW/HPW
  Increase of the IP protection class by adapting the sensor seal, installing additional seals and a double housing for the control electronics.
• Signalling devices (optical/acoustic)
  Stacking lights and signal horns/sirens available in different versions and IP protection classes.
• ATEX version
  Detector version for use in potentially explosive environments possible, ATEX zone 22.
• Compressed air monitoring
  Reports an error if the air pressure is too low for the functionality of the reject flaps.
• Reject monitoring
  Warns if the reject flap has not switched correctly after metal detection.
• Flap position monitoring
  Monitors the flaps for complete switching to the good or not good position.
• Check & Catch
  Material for simple functional testing, consisting of an insertion flap, through which spherical test specimens can be inserted into the pipeline, and a catchment grille for the test specimen including removal flap.
• Autotest
  Functional test that does not require opening the product pipelines: Test pieces (FE/NFE/VA) are moved with compressed air through a separate test tube. The control unit indicates which sphere sizes are to be tested. Incl. push button for FE, NFE and VA testing, pneumatic valve, test specimen.
• Test balls
  Test balls, diameter 10 mm made of plastic POM, with embedded metal ball made of iron, brass and stainless steel, certified ball size, metal type and certificate number are embedded in the test ball.
• Performance Verification Cerficate
  Creation of a Performance Verification Certificate (proof of functionality for audits) by CASSEL service technicians, e.g. during commissioning or maintenance possible.

Delivery Scope

• Detection unit (sensor) GF compact incl. mounting frame
• Control unit METAL SHARK^®
• Reject unit, choose from one of seven different reject versions for different applications (also possible without reject unit)
