Highest sensitivity with 4-quadrant technology
Intuitive control and easy installation with autocalibration and TeachAssistant
Maintenance-free with automatic balance and calibration control

Features

Maximum detection performance with highest reliability in the entire detection area due to 4-quadrant technology
IFS and HACCP reports easily available on the display at the touch of a button
Cyclical function monitoring with Performance Validation System (PVS)
Optionally: Data transfer to USB interface or connection to the company net-work via SHARKNET^® software
Simple setup with TeachAssistant
Memory for up to 250 products
Easy to use with intuitive and multilingual menus
4-level password system, automatic log out after time lapse

Function

The METAL SHARK^® FL and FL compact metal detectors are usually used for the inspection of nonwovens, textiles and films.

Both detectors are particularly flat and available in widths of 1,000 – 4,000 mm. The FL compact is rotatably mounted so that it can also be adapted to sloping webs.

Due to the high sensitivity of the FL models, tiny magnetic and non-magnetic metal particles (e.g. iron, aluminium and stainless steel) are detected over the entire width.
