The power supply to the equipment must be fitted with a main ON-OFF switch which completely
shuts down the power supply to the equipment. Unless otherwise specified, before you start
maintenance on the machine you should switch off and lock out the power supply at this switch.
Only make the connections to the internal terminals of the power supply unit when the unit is
disconnected from the mains.
Only connect up the compressed air supply after you have completed installation of the device
and made all the other connections.
The mains compressed air supply must have an ON-OFF valve in an accessible position. It
must be possible to padlock the valve. This valve is to be supplied by the customer.
Before connecting the device to the power supply, ensure that the power supply voltage
corresponds to that indicated on the rating plate attached to the device. Checking that the
power supply conforms to the values specified on the rating plate and to the regulations in force
is the responsibility of the customer.
The power supply plug must only be inserted into a socket fitted with an earth/ground
connection.
Any break in the safety conductor, either inside or outside the device, or disconnection of the
earth/ground safety terminal, will render the device dangerous. Intentional cutting or
disconnection is strictly forbidden.
The device should be connected to the mains power supply only after all connections required
for full installation have been completed.
To avoid damage due to lightning, fit the power supply line with appropriate surge suppressors.
After installation the device should be stable and not subject to vibration or accidental
movement. On systems with castors, the castors should be locked. All connecting cables should
ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS

ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS
11
12
During all maintenance operations ensure the complete absence of any potentially explosive
atmosphere.
Perform all maintenance operations following the procedures described in the Maintenance
section of this manual.
Before you move the machine or start maintenance or cleaning, switch off and lock out the
power supply and the compressed air supply.
Ensure that replacement fuses are of the correct rating and of the prescribed type. Makeshift
fuses and short-circuiting of the fuse boards are strictly forbidden.
Clean the various parts of the system following the procedures defined by the customer.
Cleaning procedures should also comply with the hygiene requirements for the process and
the working environment and must also take into account the degree of protection of the
equipment.
The machines are designed for use with a large range of food products and in a wide variety
of production environments. This makes it difficult for us to specify a sanitizing procedure for
all applications. It is the final users responsibility to draft suitable sanitizing procedures for
their applications.
The final user should also ensure that the instructions do not involve the use of methods or
substances which are incompatible with the machine characteristics specified in the manual.
Read the chapter on Maintenance carefully before calling the service centre.
Whatever the problem, only specialised service personnel authorised to work with CEIA
equipment should be called.
Any damaged parts of the device should be substituted with original components only.
Any maintenance or repair of the device while open and powered up should be avoided and
in any case should only be carried out by trained personnel who are fully aware of the risks
which the operation entails, following the instructions given in the Maintenance section.
Before you restart the machine, check that all the guards are present and efficient. Check
that the drive components and the electrical and pneumatic systems are efficient.
Disposal of parts with environmental impact: follow the regulations in force in the country
where the device is being used (refer to the Maintenance section).
ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS
The THS/21E and THS/21 electronic Metal Detectors are designed for the detection of
magnetic and non-magnetic metal masses transiting inside the detection probe.
Handle the device with care and without excessive force during installation, use and
maintenance
The final user is responsible for selecting the appropriate sensitivity for their application.
After this selection has been made, and programming has been adjusted accordingly, it is
also the final user's responsibility to check calibration using the test object(s) appropriate to
the level of security selected. Calibration testing must also be performed at regular intervals
to ensure the continued efficiency of the equipment.
The THS/21E and THS/21 Metal Detectors are not suitable for installation or use in explosive
or potentially explosive atmospheres.
Any maintenance or repair of the device while open and powered up should be avoided, and
in any case should only be carried out by trained personnel who are fully aware of the risks
which the operation entails.
Electric arc welding must not be carried out on the detector probe, on the control power box
or on any part of the attached structure.
The device is fitted with mechanical and electronic protections, described in this manual.
Removing or reducing these protections is forbidden.
The machine is not designed for use in hazardous environments where there is a risk to the
health and safety of the operator.
We recommend that you do not use the equipment in very dry environments. Very dry
environments can generate electrostatic charges.
Before you move the detector, check its weight. It could be too heavy to be handled by one
person. Use suitable handling methods and tools. CEIA declines all liability for damages
arising from incorrect handling of the container.
On integrated systems fitted with castors, lock the castors to prevent accidental movement.
Exercise extreme when making connecting up electrical components and the earth. Incorrect
connections can create an electrocution hazard.
Do not exceed the compressed air pressure rating. Exceeding this rating can cause an
overpressure and explosion hazard.
Tipping hazard. On integrated systems failure to follow the instructions given in this manual
may cause the machine to tip over.
ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS
13
1.4.2 Operating
CEIA Metal Detectors employ low intensity electromagnetic fields in compliance with current legislation.
MAGNETIC FIELDS can affect pacemakers. Wearers of pacemakers, cardiac defibrillators and other life supports, shall not
operate in proximity of the inductor or the heating inductors of this device.
Wearers of pacemakers must not use the Metal Detectors of the THS/MN21 series which use static electromagnetic fields.
Wearers should consult their doctor for advice on avoiding this hazard.
-
Empty the reject material bin at regular intervals. Exercise caution when emptying the bin
because it could be heavy or contain very hot material. Define and implement a procedure
for this operation. We decline all liability for injury to persons or damage to property caused
by incorrect emptying of the reject material bin.
Trapping and drawing in hazard. Body parts or loose dangling clothing can become trapped
in the moving parts of the machine. Only authorised operators wearing suitably close-fitting
overalls are permitted to work in this area.
Tripping and slipping hazard. The absence of a reject material bin or a system for collecting
ejected product can cause material to be deposited on the floor thereby creating a tripping
and slipping hazard.
Injury hazard to eyes, ears and sensitive body parts. When operating the machine do not
approach the depressurising pipe of the blower ejector.
Hard knocks to parts of the compressed air system can cause damage leading to leaks,
bursting or the escape of compressed air.
The machine is not fitted with a safety valve which depressurises the compressed air system
in the event of a power failure which causes the lighting to fail.
Automatic ejection systems (pusher cylinder or air jet types) will be powered down in the
event of a power failure.
The drive motor of the conveyor belt is covered by a metal guard except on the lower side
and on the side facing the inside of the machine. Burns hazard: guard surfaces are very hot.
Burns hazard. Caution hot surfaces. If the weight carried on the belt exceeds the limits
specified in the technical data this will cause the motor to overheat. If dirt residues are not
cleaned from the machine at regular intervals this also will cause the motor to overheat.
Although the power of the laser beam used in barcode readers is very low, it can be
dangerous to the human eye if stared into for long periods of time.
Failure to follow the operating instructions in this manual may cause a loss of food
characteristics.
On equipment where the material to be inspected is loaded and unloaded manually, it is the
customers responsibility to assess the risks to operator health and safety.
On integrated systems with the downstream conveyor connected up, the belt may start and
stop unexpectedly because it is controlled from this infeed line.
1.4.3 Maintenance
-
14
Systems with a conveyor belt. Before you restart the motor after maintenance, make sure
that no screwdrivers, tools or other objects have been left on the belt. Objects left on the belt
will be thrown outwards when the system is started.
Failure to perform the hygiene and sanitising procedures at the specified intervals can cause
the proliferation of bacteria.
Crushing and trapping hazard. Incorrectly refitting the guards after cleaning or maintenance
will leave moving parts insufficiently covered and thereby cause a crushing and trapping
hazard.

All the system containers (probe and supply box) have a degree of
protection (see the technical specifications) which ensure water
tightness during operations and cleaning.
All additional conveyor components have a protection degree of at
least IP65. This also means that they are watertight.
The cable glands installed on the system are IP68 and they are
dimensioned for M16, M20 and M25 cables.
In order to maintain the protection degree, you must use cables with
characteristics and diameter compliant with the device glands and
following the guidelines specified in this manual. Insert only one cable
for each gland and take care that all of them are mounted and
tightened in the correct way. Do not remove the caps from unused
glands.
An internal self-diagnosis system continuously monitors Metal
Detector functional efficiency. In the event of a fault, a message is
shown on the control display and all alarm indicators are activated
together with corresponding relays.
The access to Metal Detector parameters is protected by a six level
password system.

2.1 In the immediate proximity of the Metal Detector, the motors may be screened by
means of cylindrical metal enclosures; such cylinders must have a sufficiently large
diameter in order to contain the motors and a thickness of not less than 2 mm. The
cylinders must be of the non-welded type.
3. Fit the electromagnets, remote controls and DC motors with RC muffling nets (ask our
technical office for details of the dimensions) and braid the respective power supply cables
with as short a pitch as possible.
Fix the probe cable to the power supply unit so that it cannot oscillate or vibrate.
If the cable is too long, DO NOT CUT THE CABLE: COIL UP THE EXCESS.

parameters on the basis of the bar code read by an external barcode reader prior to
entry of the product into the antenna tunnel.
Used for: serial/Wi-Fi converter connection; or for remote terminal connection in
systems with emulation software.
When active, this input indicates that the downstream belt is operating and can accept
the product.
When active, this input disables the detector for a programmed time period after the
conveyor start.
When active, this input indicates that the reject container is not present.
(INHIBITION)
(BIN ABSENT)
Used together with the Ejection Confirmation input to check the position of the ejector.
(EJ.POSITION CHECK)
Using in some ejection modes to check that contaminated material is indeed ejected
and does not continue to transit in the system.
When active, this input indicates the passage of the product in front of the photocell.
(EJECTION CHECK)
(PHOTOCELL)
(EJ.CONFIRMATION)
When active, this input indicates the ejection of contaminated product into the reject.
The input is controlled from the self-diagnosis system.

For the inputs reserved for sensors you must define the activation mode which depends on the
type of control performed by the sensor. For example:
- Sensor: Single output photocell with reflector
- Control: Pack detection
- Activation mode: Normally energised without passage
- Input setting: NC
The input line is activated when the product passes in front of the photocell.
ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS

During use do not insert body parts or objects inside the material transit tunnel.
Do not place body parts, clothing or objects close to the device.
Before performing any operation on the device, disconnect both the power supply and the compressed air supply.
When the machine is operating, only use the control panels and the emergency stop buttons to control the machine.

It is important to set BL and BM values as close as possible to BS, according to the specified settings, in order to ensure
correct detection capability and to increase the Metal Detector immunity to interference.
3.10.1.2 Application with Conveyor Control System
These transit speed parameters set the speed of the conveyor belt. These values are used to
regulate conveyor movements and to calculate the ejection times.

The parameter KT depends on the system configuration, and can be determined using the
following procedure (you require a transit speed measurement device):
- set KT=1.000
- set BS=50
- activate the motor and measure the speed of transit Vn
- calculate KT = Vn/50
Note: by modifying the value of KT, the parameters BL and BM are automatically set to nominal values, respectively 30 x
KT and 60 x KT. BL and BM can also be modified manually.
The individual BS for each type of product are stored to memory.

3.10.2 Encoder
Variable speed conveyor belts must be fitted with an encoder. In this case the delay in activating
the ejection step is calculated dynamically as a function of the speed measured. It is also possible
to continuously control the speed of the conveyor belt so that it is always between BL and BM.
The encoder must be connected to the ENCODER input.

3.10.4 Ejection
The ejection settings enable the manual or automatic removal of contaminated product.
The ejector should be connected according to the type of activation:
- single solenoid: use the relay EJECT (J02 on ALM board) in series to the output Vout (J14 on
the ALM card), to an externally supplied voltage, max 30V or use the output
EJECT NO (J14 on ALM card).
- double solenoid: use the outputs EJECT NO and EJECT NC (J14 on ALM card).

3.11 Timing
This section describes the timings for the signals activated after a stoppage.
For systems fitted with the Conveyor Control System or the Control Power Box with encoder,
the timings are based on the actual speed of the conveying system.
For systems with the Control Power Box without encoder, the timings are based on the speed
set in the parameter BS and do not take into account any stoppages after an alarm or during
ejection. In applications with intermittent product conveying, we recommend synchronizing with the
conveyor signal (for details see the FC parameter in the Programming Manual).

In the event of an unsuccessful test, the fault condition TEST FAILED is activated as set in the FF parameter (see
Programming Manual).
In this case, one of the following actions is possible:
- Reset the system and if necessary perform the test again (STM=OFF)
- Perform the test again to proceed (STM=ON)
See the STM parameter in the Programming Manual.
4.7.3 Quick test
You can run a single test without having to enter the programming mode. This is done by enabling
the input IN_AUX1 (with for example a pushbutton). Select the test by selecting the QCKT
parameter in the QA Configuration menu.
When you activate the input, the display will show a message requesting the corresponding test.
Run the test by passing the sample through the unit in the manual mode or use an automatic
system driven by the AUX relay (activated for 3 seconds when IN_AUX1 is activated).
The result of the test will be recorded as usual in the event log as a Quick Test.

- Requirements that govern correct management and organization by the user, so as to
comply completely with the regulation in question.
The complete range of procedures applied by the user and applied to the operational
characteristics of the Metal Detector must guarantee complete compliance with the regulation.
4.8.2 Metal Detector settings
In order to ensure compliance with CFR21 standards you should note the following
126
All users working with the Metal Detector must have their own username and password.
This management shall be performed according to CFR21 standards. Direct access to any of
the programming menus, without a password (user 000000), must not be available.
The Administrator must periodically modify the passwords of all the operators.
Set the Restricted access (FLR) parameter to ON, to prevent any access by unauthorised
personnel.
In case of remote programming, check that the way to access to remote programming will be
treated as per the local programming, setting RS232Password (RM) and AuxRS232passw
(AURM) to NULL.
Also check that the automatic exit from remote programming is set (RPTO = ON).
Set the Event buffer fault parameter (FB) to ON, to prevent loss of stored data and events.
All production data must be printed and/or saved and maintained apart, on a regular basis
and managed according to CFR21 standards. This can be easily performed using THS
Production software.
ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS
5 - MAINTENANCE
Before starting any maintenance operation, carefully read the Safety instructions - Warnings section of this manual.
Any maintenance or repair of the device while open and powered up should be avoided and in any case should only be
carried out by trained personnel who are fully aware of the risks which the operation entails, following the instructions
given in the Maintenance section.
When the mains is disconnected using the main switch S1 of the Conveyor Control System, the power supply section is
deactivated, but the contacts which are connected permanently to the mains, e.g. the relay outputs, remain energised.
When the I2 service switch is turned off, most components remain energised.
