Metal Separators - SEP-TT

The Guardian series SEP-TT tunnel type metal separators are specifically designed and built to detect both ferrous and nonferrous metal contaminants from a moving material flow stream. These versatile and rugged units are perfectly suited for mounting on a conveyor or chute. With their high sensitivity and high immunity to product effect and external vibration they are the ideal device for eliminating metallic contaminants at any step of a process from raw material to packaged product.

They are ideal protection devices in the food, pharmaceutical, and chemical/plastics industries with the ability to detect and reject metal particles as small as 0.02 inches in diameter at throughputs as high as 243 cubic feet per hour of pelletized, granular or free flowing powdered material.

The metal separators feature a rugged cast aluminum housing, plastic diverter flap and cast stainless steel diverter chute assembled as a low profile, dust tight unit. A full series of mechanical options include a choice of inlet hoppers and discharge adapters and food grade material contact surfaces. All electrical components are self contained within the unit and include options such as A 24 volt PLC interface contact for rejection cycle counting.

The Foremost Metal Separators have a proven record of long, reliable service in a variety of applications. Let our 25-plus years of providing metal separation solutions help solve your problems.
