For flat belt conveyor applications, Eriez recommends a Model PL MetAlarm. The Model PL is supplied with 6600, 3500 or 3500/QM2 Control.
The unit is easy to install and the Model PL is especially effective for picking up metal contaminants where the search coil is surrounded by metal conveyor frames or moving metal like mobile crusher applications.
