Pro-Tector
Simple. Reliable. Solutions
Your best defense against metal
As customers face increasingly stringent product safety standards, MPE has sought to provide a new and better way to prevent both ferrous and nonferrous metals
from contaminating final product. The result: MPE’s Pro-Tector efficiently combines the simplicity of a magnetic separator with the reliability of a metal detector in one
compact unit. This innovative new system assures the quick, easy removal of metals from the product stream, while its size accommodates the tight spaces commonly
found in production facilities.
Designed for use in gravity-feed pipes to monitor for metal contaminants in continuous-flowing granules or powders such as sugar, flour, corn meal, or spices, the Pro-
Tector’s integrated drawer magnet provides maximum magnetic separation of contaminants. Product first flows through the drawer magnet, which is located at the top
of the unit, and then ferrous-free product continues through a gravity-feed metal detector.
The Pro-Tector’s integrated drawer magnet employs twin layers of rare-earth magnetic tubes to provide maximum magnetic separation of metal contaminants, and its
quick-clean feature allows the operator to clean the unit in under ten seconds.
Extremely reliable and easy to use, the Pro-Tector’s integrated metal detector features a straightforward operating system that quickly guides the user through set-up
and operation. Designed for intuitive use, the effectiveness and ease of use make this metal detector the premier choice for manufacturers unwilling to compromise on
product safety or quality.
Benefits:
• Provides superior defense against metal contamination
• Reliable, dependable metal removal
• Combines the simplicity of a drawer magnet with the reliability of a metal detector
• Easy to use
• Hygienic construction
• Available in a number of standard sizes
About our Magnetic Separators and Metal Detectors
Magnetic Separators
Recognized as the world standard for design, easy use and reliability, MPI drawer magnets deliver maximum capture of metal contaminants and assist food processors
and others to keep product contaminant free and to protect processing equipment from damage.
Features:
• Low maintenance cost -- FDA-approved welded compression style gasket features a permanent seal and virtually eliminates the need for gasket replacement.
• Easy to clean -- Built-in robust magnet cleaning tracking system allows quick removal of tramp metals.
• Safe -- Integral grounding strap eliminates potential for static sparking during magnet cleaning.
• Effective -- An exclusive mechanical cam-operated latch assembly prevents tramp metals from being re-introduced into the product stream.
• Secure -- Nonmetallic stripper seals effectively wipe captured metals into the included tramp metal collection tray for simple magnet cleaning and contaminant
collection.
• Durable -- Stainless steel construction
Metal Detectors
Because Cassel metal detectors are so user-friendly, manufacturers enjoy the benefits of the metal detector immediately after installation. State-of-the-art DDS (direct
digital synthesizer) and DSP (digital signal processing) digital technology eliminates costly maintenance. Once set, the metal detector will not require further adjustment
from the manufacturer, cutting the cost of ownership. Cassel’s exclusive four-quadrant technology provides extreme sensitivity that far surpasses the reach of
competitive products.
Features:
• Easy to use -- Intuitive operation
• Reliable -- Outstanding sensitivity and stability
• Documentation -- HACCP and IFS compliance – metal contaminant detections, changes in parameter settings, etc., are logged with both date and time and can be
viewed on screen or downloaded to a Windows-based PC.
• Low cost operation -- no maintenance electronics
• Durable -- Built for rugged production environments
• Food grade -- 100% stainless steel housing
• Multiple reject options available
