NEW PULSER
August 20, 2010 - We are pleased to introduce the PULSER single probe double sheet detector that can operate in locations where space limits the use of dual probe detectors.  The new PULSER double sheet detector features a newly-designed single probe with a pulsed electromagnet that quickly samples ferrous metal sheets without holding on to them like previous single-probe detectors that used permanent magnets.  In addition, the PULSER is able to detect sheets that are 30% thicker than comparable double sheet detectors, which makes it usable in more types of steel sheet feeding applications.

The PULSER Double Sheet Detector consists of a sensor probe and a control unit.  Four PULSER probes are available with different diameters and magnet strengths to detect metal thickness from as little as .25mm (0.01”) up to a maximum of 6.0mm (0.24”).  The sensor probes are ruggedly constructed of stainless steel and have a built in metal proximity detector, which allows the detector to count sheets and/or detect that the last sheet has advanced.

The Model DS200 control unit features simple one-button calibration that automatically measures the thickness of a sample sheet, calculates the double thickness value and sets the reject threshold.  An optional two sample calibration process allows the control unit to detect and respond to variations in metal thickness as small as 5%.

We are a world leader in sensors for double sheet metal detection, metal thickness and container leak monitoring.  Prime Controls’ metal sensors can be found in canmaking plants and other types of manufacturing facilities around the world.
