BIG Detector
Made For Rough Industrial Applications
The SHARK® BIG is made for rough industrial applications including big products, such as wood logs or paper bales. The installation is typically in a U-trough shaped conveyor with a flat belt, as well as in special vibration conveyors. Cassel metal detectors offer the latest features in metal detector design to deliver the highest performance systems for your process, reducing the risk of product contamination and protecting your brand.
Benefits of the BIG Detector From Magnetic Products, Inc
Intuitive Design

- Metal threshold follows the signature so metal detection occurs in the whole product
- The detector adjusts settings to detect metals in the most “difficult” products such as cheese or high salt content foods
Zero Maintenance Electronics
- All solid state electronics housed on one main board – ensures years of reliable performance offering the lowest cost of ownership on the market
- Digital Balance Control adjusts for temperature and humidity fluctuations by monitoring coil balance more than 200 times per second
- 2 year standard warranty
Documentation and Traceability
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. A list of metal contaminant detections, changes in parameter settings, etc., is stored with both date and time. This list can be viewed on screen or the data can be downloaded to a Windows-based PC.
- Performance validation system (PVS) automatically prompts operator to test Metal Detector performance at pre-set intervals
- Operational history: events are recorded with the date and time and can be viewed on the control panel or export the log via a serial port
- Data will not be lost during a power outage
