<strong>Cassel</strong>’s METAL SHARK® 2<br />
Free style teach area<br />
With the new <strong>Metal</strong> Shark® 2, the teach area is<br />
pre-determined in accordance with the product<br />
effect with <strong>Cassel</strong> free-style, exclusive<br />
Four-Quadrant technology. <strong>Metal</strong> signals are<br />
detected because the teach area is minimized.<br />

Two rail teach area<br />
Other metal detectors<br />
Common metal detectors pre-determine the<br />
teach areas in accordance with product effect<br />
with very simple rails. Some metal signals<br />
cannot be detected because they fall inside<br />
the two rails area.<br />

No maintenance electronics<br />
<strong>Cassel</strong> Four-Quadrant November 2010 © <strong>Magnetic</strong> <strong>Products</strong>, <strong>Inc</strong>.<br />
Automatic balance and calibration of electronics<br />
ensures many years of reliable performance. After<br />
initial set up, no further adjustment of electronics<br />
is needed.<br />
Intuitive operation<br />
The display panel shows only the information needed<br />
to operate the detector. Easy-to-use software and<br />
a simple teaching menu allows set up and use by<br />
non-technical personnel. Over 120 products can be<br />
stored and recalled. Password protection ensures<br />
that only authorized users operate equipment.<br />
Outstanding sensitivity and stability<br />
New “recipes” or changes to current data are easily<br />
programmed. Digital noise filters eliminate any<br />
undesired signals, while multichannel technology<br />
provides optimum detection of ferrous, nonferrous or<br />
stainless steel contaminants. The integrated sensor<br />
is built to withstand the rigors of a harsh production<br />
settings. Key internal electronics are fully protected<br />
and reliably perform in even the most challenging<br />
wet or dry environments.<br />
Powerful electromagnetic field<br />
More features and benefits<br />
<strong>Cassel</strong>’s electromagnetic field is much stronger than<br />
needed, eliminating “noise” disturbances from outside<br />
forces which can hamper equipment effectiveness. A<br />
powerful electromagnetic field provides excellent signalto-noise<br />
ratio.<br />
Epoxy-encapsulated sensor<br />
The tunnel aperture is encapsulated with epoxy (meets<br />
food standards), ensuring that the sensor remains dry<br />
and hygienic. While competitors often use plastic shafts<br />
affixed with silicon, <strong>Cassel</strong> <strong>Metal</strong> <strong>Detector</strong>s boast a solid<br />
sealed block.<br />
High-speed digital signal processor (DSP)<br />
Highly effective high-speed processors support digital<br />
filters to provide:<br />
• more efficient product-effect-compensation (needed<br />
in the food industry)<br />
• more effective noise reduction, allowing<br />
identification of even the smallest metal particles<br />
HACCP and IFS Compliance<br />
Per HACCP principles, metal detectors are<br />
considered a critical control point and continuous<br />
checking is required to meet standards. MPI metal<br />
detectors can be programmed to automatically<br />
remind the operator to test equipment performance<br />
at pre-set intervals. <strong>Metal</strong> contaminant detections,<br />
changes in parameter settings, etc., are logged<br />
with both date and time. The log can be viewed<br />
on screen or downloaded via a serial port. To<br />
fulfill HACCP and IFS standards, data can be<br />
downloaded to a Windows-based PC.<br />
Extremely durable electronic systems<br />
Although more costly to manufacture, <strong>Cassel</strong>’s<br />
electronic components<br />
include the bare minimum<br />
of potentiometers and plug<br />
connections. This design<br />
assures extreme durability<br />
and no loose contacts<br />
or corrosion on contact<br />
surfaces. Competitors often<br />
rely on low-cost tiny plugs<br />
to connect internal electrical and board components,<br />
which lead to loose contacts and unstable operation.<br />
Oversized sensor housing<br />
Other features and benefits<br />
<strong>Cassel</strong> metal detectors<br />
are larger than competitor<br />
counterparts. This means<br />
that the electromagnetic<br />
field is more effectively<br />
protected and minimizes<br />
outside disturbances. A<br />
higher-weight sensor is less<br />
susceptible to vibration.<br />
New single board technology<br />
A newly developed control unit uses state-of-the-art<br />
SMD technology to reduce noise and guard against<br />
interference from power supply fluctuations.<br />
Digitalized circuitry and product-effect<br />
compensation<br />
Extensive use of digital components assures longterm<br />
precision. An ultra-fast processing speed of<br />
50 MPIS (million instructions per second) allows for<br />
sophisticated self-adapting, real-time noise filters.<br />
Network interface<br />
RS232 and RS485 are standard / Ethernet optional<br />
Input and output signals<br />
All alarm systems are supported.<br />
Automatic self-adjustment<br />
Self-adjusting operation frequency and circuitry makes<br />
the metal detector extremely user-friendly.
