With improved detection performance, processing speeds and simplified operation, the MET 30+ is setting new metal detection standards in the food, pharmaceutical, textile paper and other industries.
Designed to detect real-life contaminants such as swarf and wire, the MET 30+ is equally effective in both 'wet' and 'dry' applications. Rugged and robust, the MET 30+ withstands the increasingly aggressive cleaning environments encountered throughout the food industry today.

The MET30+ 3f is the most advanced multi-frequency metal detector on the market today. Operating at three crystal tuned frequencies - low, medium and high the detector will automatically select the optimum frequency for each application. This feature is particularly useful when either the characteristics or the packing of the product being inspected can vary.
The MET30+ hf is a new high-frequency addition to the MET30+ range; this detector provides the highest sensitivity level achievable for nonferrous and stainless steel metals - up to 30% higher than standard detectors. This unit is particularly effective when inspecting dry foods such as biscuits, potato chips and flour.
System
Automatic Set-up
Conductive products, eg. bread, meat, cheese require specific settings in order to achieve maximum performance. The MET30+ has the ability to store up to 100 different product settings in its memory and will automatically calibrate for bulk and packaged products as they pass through the system. In this way, optimum performance is ensured and the risk of products being falsely rejected is reduced.
Automatic Product Tracking
Conductive products often vary in effect on the detector during the course of production. The MET30+ continuously updates the currently selected product compensation setting so as to ensure optimum sensitivity.
Metalised film
The MET30+ provides an automatic facility for switching to a metalised film detector to suit products packaged in this material.
Security Codes
Three levels of selectable security codes are provided:
1. Operator access to change set-up mode
2. Supervisor access to change set-up mode
3. Engineering access to factory set-up parameters.
RS 232/422/485 datalink
Allows printing of reject reports, networking with PC and Quality Assurance information.
Datachek Management System
The MET30+ incorporates options for remote monitoring of detector performance either individually or as part of a group of detectors.
Virtual Engineer
Provides detailed product 'signal' analysis to ensure optimal performance levels.
Modem support
The MET30+ can be linked through a modem to the Lock service center for immediate troubleshooting and support.
