PHANTOM METAL DETECTOR
Impervious Performance on the Production Lines

The model Shown is the Stainless Steel BSH version of the Standard Metal Detector

Available with IP69K certified BSH extra-rugged casing for complete waterproof protection, the Phantom Metal Detector is the most practical and functional solution on the production lines, day after day.

The Phantom Metal Detector utilizes the latest Digital Signal Processing technology to ensure complete product integrity. With the highest processing power, Phantom systems are renowned for their superior accuracy, high-speed and ease-of-use.

Phantom detectors are offered in a wide range of aperture sizes with a selection of construction options including painted aluminum, stainless steel, and BSH (IP69K certified). The rectangular aperture units are suited for integration with conveyor belts. Fortress recommends utilizing its custom-designed Vector conveyor system which is built specifically for the metal detection application and optimizes the performance of the detector.

CONVEYOR SYSTEMS

Fortress metal detectors can be integrated into a conveyor system for end of line applications.

Such systems are typically used for the inspection of pre-packed products providing the final metal check before dispatch.

Metal detection systems are designed to satisfy a range of retail specifications and functionality including BRC and Efsis.

• Suitable for the handling of loose or individually packaged products up to 50kg in weight.
  
  
• Typically, but not always, these are “end of line systems” for the inspection of the finished product just prior to dispatch.
  
  
• Depending upon the presentation, size and weight of product they may be fitted with an automatic reject system. These rejects, complete with collection bin, are designed to remove contaminated product from the production line without interrupting the flow.
  
  
• In many cases the conveyor system is designed to satisfy a “Retailer Specification”.

IN-FOIL METAL DETECTOR
Detects Ferrous Metals in Metallic Packages!

The model shown is the BSH Extra-Rugged version of the In-Foil Metal Detector

The Phantom In-Foil Metal Detector is utilized to detect ferrous metals such as iron and steel in products packaged in foil.

Available with BSH Extra-Rugged IP69K certified casing for the most resilient performance under harsh conditions such as washdown, the system is able to identify ferrous contaminants despite the presence of aluminum foil wrapping or trays.

• Fortress TechnologyAutoComp - automatic compensation for packaging

PIPELINE METAL DETECTOR
Rugged Protection for Pumped Products

The model Shown is the Nylon Pipe version of the Pipeline Metal Detector

The Phantom IP69K certified Stainless Steel Pipeline system detects metal contamination in pumped liquids and pastes conveyed through its non-metallic pipe. The extra-rugged BSH casing enables the system to withstand the harshest production environments. Pipe material options include nylon, rubber, and Teflon wrapped pipe for higher pressure / temperature applications.

The Diverter Valve reject system is typically used to divert contaminated product from the flow. A test ball insertion/retrieval kit is offered as an option with Pipeline systems, allowing for ease of manual testing.

GRAVITY METAL DETECTOR
The Premium Choice in Bulk Inspection

The model Shown is the Aluminum Epoxy version of the Gravity Metal Detector

Phantom Gravity metal detector systems are designed to detect metal contamination in dry, powdery or granular free-flowing products that can be gravity fed through a pipe.

Systems are available in Aluminum or Stainless Steel casing, with a selection of pipe sizes. The Diverter Valve reject system is typically used to divert contaminated product into a reject tank.

A test ball retrieval drawer is offered as an option with Gravity systems, allowing for ease of manual testing. For added convenience, a wired mountable remote control is ideal for installations in which the detector unit is not easily accessible.

VERTEX METAL DETECTOR
Inline Inspection for VFFS Applications

The model Shown is the 6.5" Aperture version of the Vertex Metal Detector with Remote Control terminal

Ultra-slim Phantom Vertex metal detectors are utilized in specialized packaging applications involving freefalling product. The compact Vertex fits where other metal detectors can't - typically between a Multihead Weigher and a Vertical Form Fill Seal machine (Bagger).

Phantom intelligence and controls are achieved via a convenient mountable remote control box. Upon detection of metal contamination, a reject relay is triggered.

Vertex systems are Aluminum constructed and are available in standard sizes. Custom designed support frames are optional, allowing for easier installation.
