Function
The METAL SHARK® BD-E2 MEAT is used free-standing or combined with conveyor belts. Using 3D detection technology, it detects the smallest magnetic and non-magnetic metal contaminants (iron, stainless steel, aluminum etc.) precisely and reliably even under difficult conditions.
The robust, closed stainless steel housing is stable and easy to clean – ideally suited to the meat industry.

Accessories & Extras
The METAL SHARK® BD can be adapted to your production process. Different temperature or hygiene requirements are taken into account as well as complicated product requirements for metal detection.
For your audit reliability, a Performance Verification Certificate can be issued by CASSEL service technicians during commissioning or maintenance.
| 3D Detection | Additional light barriers and update of the control software (BOOST factor) enable an exact signal evaluation over the detection period of each individual product (MultiPhase). |
| Multifrequency | Use of 4 different frequencies significantly increases the stability against product variations (density, position, temperature, etc.) |
| Temperature extension cold | Temperature range extended to -40°C, cold-elastic grouting material, insulation, switch cabinet heating and other measures |
| Temperature extension hot | Temperature range extended to +55° C, Adaptation of control cabinet, additional thermal insulation, replacement of filter fan, heat exchanger and/or active cooling units |
| High temperature extension for product | Product temperature up to max. +120°C, with this option, the sensor has protection class IP54 |
| LPW/HPW | Increase of the IP protection class by adapting the sensor seal, installing additional seals and a double housing for the control electronics |
| SHARKNET® | The SHARKNET® software connects METAL SHARK® metal detectors to a central computer and offers central storage of all operating data as well as batch and alarm documentation for HACCP and IFS conformity. |
| Twinhead design | Special version for the detection of difficult contaminants: Magnetic chips can, for example, align themselves on the conveyor belt so that they run perfectly parallel to the magnetic field and thus remain undetected. Two magnetic fields offset against each other ensure metal detection even in such cases. |
