The tunnel-type TN77 Metal Detector is generally used to detect tramp metal in conveyed materials and is easily installed onto new or existing conveyors.  The TN77 is especially popular with users due to the simplicity of operation and fully adjustable levels of sensitivity and detection.

The TN77 provides a continuous inspection of any non-metallic or non-conductive material, identifying and locating problematic tramp iron and low-grade manganese steels.  Such tramp metal damages processing equipment such as screens, crushers and conveyors.  Unlike many other Metal Detectors, the TN77 is capable of indicating if 1 of 2 pieces of tramp metal are simultaneously detected.  The Metal Detector also overlooks non-magnetic copper-alloy belt fasteners, which may cause false ‘trips’.

The search coil is supplied from either a range of standard sizes or made to meet customers’ specific requirements, with aperture heights to suit specific processes.  The TN search coil is also easily dismantled for ease of installation around a customers’ existing belt conveyor.

The TN77 Metal Detector is operated via a separate mounted control.  The wall-fixing control cabinet is IP52 rated and designed for local or remote fixing.

Operation

When the TN77 Metal Detector detects tramp metal in the conveyed material, a signal is generated in the search coil and transmitted to the control unit.  This signal is processed and used to control other circuits, which include the interlocking of the belt conveyor, operating audible or visual alarms, marking devices or suitable rejection mechanisms.

Typical tramp metal detected includes:

  • Digger teeth
  • Drill rods
  • Crusher plates
  • Bars
  • Chains
  • Nuts and bolts

Applications

The versatility of the TN77 makes the metal detector suitable for a wide range of applications in the mining, quarrying, and recycling sectors.   Typical materials inspected include limestone, granite, sand and gravel, clay, coal, and mineral ores.
