The Vistus series of metal detectors from Sartorius is targeted at food groups and pharmaceutical companies.
Thanks to high-quality components and a wide range of frequencies, the Vistus series is claimed to deliver good detection performance and reliability.
The Vistus metal detector is available in a choice of designs: coils with rectangular apertures ranging from just a few centimetres to several metres in length; round-aperture coils with a reduced metal-free zone; and special detectors for testing individual tablets.
Vistus is optionally available with a reduced metal-free zone, which is primarily designed for installation in limited spaces, as is the case with drop shaft systems, for example.
Users can also choose up to three frequencies in a range of 60kHz to 1,000kHz and can use a single detector to cover low-, medium- and high-frequency ranges.
As a result, this metal detector can adapt to accommodate different product characteristics and attains high sensitivity levels for all magnetic and non-magnetic metals.
Despite the high sensitivity of the Vistus metal detectors, they can stand up to the rigors of production processes, according to the company.
Whether operated in wet or dry environments, the Vistus metal detectors withstand cleaning, even using high-pressure equipment.
Whether the user is an administrator, a quality assurance manager, a technician, a maintenance technician or a standard production-line operator, Vistus offers customised dialogues and therefore reduces the complexity involved in operating a metal detector.
In addition, the metal detector is capable of auto-learning products and saving all the necessary parameters.
This enables fast switching from one product to another during a production run in progress.
