3 August 2011 – Fortress Technology Europe has introduced the Phantom Stealth extra rugged metal detector. The robust system’s modular design means fewer product parts resulting in greater reliability, while its revolutionary new Lexan control panel has been designed by the company to withstand the harshest production environments.

For heightened stability and performance in wet or heavy duty product applications, the IP66K certified extra rugged casing has been used. The addition of an epoxy chute makes the Stealth water resistant.

The system has incorporated the latest digital signal processing technology in to the new Stealth, to provide unparalleled precision and speed, and to detect and reject ferrous and non-ferrous metals, including stainless steel.

Other key features include UltraSense, which ensures that high sensitivity levels are maintained in order to detect the smallest metal contaminants, and Auto Test, self- diagnostics tool, which helps to guarantee consistent high performance and to keep costs down.
