Metal Detectors

The Jetscreen Metal Detector employs radio frequency to detect tramp metal of any type. A magnetic field is generated within the sensing head area, which will alter in the presence of a moving conductive material. The control unit monitors the magnetic field and will operate an alarm circuit when a fluctuation is detected. The detector head is built in such a fashion as to concentrate the direction of the detection field and ignore any metal that is not in the area of interest, such as structural bracing etc.

The Jaymor Jetscreen Metal Detector is designed as an inherently stable unit in order to prevent spurious alarms due to voltage fluctuations or electrical noise, while still retaining a high degree of sensitivity. An adjustable rotary knob inside the control cabinet is used to set the sensitivity at which the detector will trigger.

The controller electronics are housed in a robust powder-coated steel or stainless steel enclosure, with a double-lip lid seal for use in rugged industrial conditions. The control unit can be fitted with an optional timing module for auto-reset, dump, reverse or reject functions. The unit also houses an external manual reset button and trip indicator light. A remote reset option can also be accommodated in the controller unit.

Standard detector heads are constructed from welded aluminium and then given a powder-coated finish. Welded stainless steel units are available for particularly harsh environments, or where specified such as in the food industry.

The sensitivity of the Jaymor Jetscreen Metal Detectors varies slightly with each model type. For all models the sensitivity is relative to the distance from the head to the tramp metal. Sensitivity will lower the further away the piece of metal to be detected is from the detection face. For this reason the enclosed head designs will have a greater sensitivity than the flat style heads as they will detect from all sides around an object, reducing the distance from the sensing face to the metal.


Flat Heads Flat metal detector sensor heads are designed for an under belt installation. Sensor heads are custom designed to meet each customers needs. Sensor head features include: - Powder coated aluminium or stainless steel housing options - Mounting bracket locations to suit customers requirements - Terminal box location to suit customers requirements - Width to suit customers belt width - Kevlar and UHMWPE options for high wear surfaces - Single pre-wired screened cable to controller.

Metal Detector Controller A metal detector controller is required for each metal detector sensing head. Sensor heads are connected to the controller via a single screened cable. Metal detector controller features include: - Compatibility to all detector sensing heads. - Simple sensitivity control via a single dial - Power and trip indication lights on front of panel - Reset button on panel with facility for remore reset - Optional auto sweep control addon - Rugged stainless steel enclosure with IP lip - Single phase 240VAC supply.
