Automatic balance and calibration of electronics
ensures many years of reliable performance. After
initial set up, no further adjustment of electronics
is needed.
no maintenance electronics
Intuitive operation
The display panel shows only the information needed
to operate the detector. Easy-to-use software and
a simple teaching menu allows set up and use by
non-technical personnel. Over 120 products can be
stored and recalled. Password protection ensures
that only authorized users operate equipment.
outstanding sensitivity and stability
New “recipes” or changes to current data are easily
programmed. Digital noise filters eliminate any
undesired signals, while multichannel technology
provides optimum detection of ferrous, nonferrous or
stainless steel contaminants. The integrated sensor
is built to withstand the rigors of a harsh production
settings. Key internal electronics are fully protected
and reliably perform in even the most challenging
wet or dry environments.
Per HACCP principles, Metal Detectors are
considered a critical control point and continuous
checking is required to meet standards. Cassel
Metal Detectors can be programmed to automatically
remind the operator to test equipment performance
at pre-set intervals. Metal contaminant detections,
changes in parameter settings, etc., are logged with
both date and time. The log can be viewed on screen
or downloaded via a serial port. To fulfill HACCP
and IFS standards, data can be downloaded to a
Windows-based PC.
HACCP and IFS Compliance
powerful electromagnetic field
Cassel’s electromagnetic field is much stronger than
needed, eliminating “noise” disturbances from outside
forces which can hamper equipment effectiveness. A
powerful electromagnetic field provides excellent signal-
to-noise ratio.
Although more costly to
manufacture, Cassel’s
electronic components
include the bare minimum
of potentiometers and
plug connections. This
design assures extreme
durability and no loose
contacts or corrosion
on contact surfaces. Competitors often rely on
low-cost tiny plugs to connect internal electrical and
board components, which lead to loose contacts and
unstable operation.

electronic systems
high-speed digital signal processor (DSP)
Highly effective high-speed processors support digital
filters to provide:
more efficient product-effect-compensation (needed
•
in the food industry)
more effective noise reduction, allowing
•
identification of even the smallest metal particles

Cassel’s METAL SHARK® 2
Free style teach area
With the new Metal Shark® 2,
the teach area is pre-determined
in accordance with the product

exclusive Four-Quadrant
technology. Metal signals are
detected because the teach

Magnetic Products, Inc. (MPI) offers a complete line of Cassel next-generation Metal
Detectors, featuring exclusive “Four-Quadrant” technology. Integrated Four-Quadrant
technology allows Cassel equipment to readily adjust settings to detect metals in even the
most “difficult” products such as fresh meat or high salt content foods. To ensure maximum
performance, users are taken through a series of easy-to-follow, step-by-step, high-graphic
screens to set standards for product testing. By finding even the smallest particles of ferrous,
nonferrous and stainless steel contaminants, Cassel Metal Detectors assist food processors
to meet HACCP, IFS, BRC and GMP safety standards.
