PD240CH CEIA Handheld Metal Detector – Medical Field
- Large search area for faster and accurate screening operations
- High precision pinpointing by dual-tone audio signalling & dual-colour display
- Three modes of operation allow for high-performance ferrous detection, head or full body, or full metals detection in full body
- Patient safety – Mitigates the risk of an RF burn occurring in the scanner due to either Ferrous or Non-Ferrous Metals
- Dual sensing – Separate screening for ferrous metallic items or any type of metallic item
- Audible, silent-vibration, and visual-magnitude alert settings
- Customizable interface, energy-saving mode, and sensitivity
- Embedded Long Life Rechargeable Batteries are renewable energy and eliminate the Operational Cost of Alkaline Batteries
The CEIA PD20CH is used for precise MRI Patient Screening of ferromagnetic materials and prostheses which are dangerous in MRI scans, that can be operated in Zone 1, 2, 3. The only hand-held MRI patient screening device capable of separately detecting both ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic metals, the PD240CH Hand-held Patient Screener provides protection from both adverse magnetic field interaction and potential RF-induced metallic heating.
Designed as a safer and more convenient than similar alternatives, the lightweight portable patient screener has three analysis modes and a control interface that can be personalized to refine analysis capabilities based on specific patient needs.
