The system offers learning and tracking of the product effect to optimise detection sensitivity to both ferrous and non-ferrous metals. This is done from a single transit that is equal in precision and efficiency to hundreds of conventional transits. In addition, an automatic testing function continuously monitors and checks the sensitivity of the system to ensure maximum production safety.

The detector is highly immune to environmental interference, including common radio frequencies. In addition, diagnostic tools for measuring the environmental compatibility of the metal detector have been built into the device itself so no additional instrumentation is needed.

Bluetooth wireless communication connectivity means there is no need for the maintenance technician to worry about physically accessing the interior of the detector or using unwieldy connection cables.
