Why CEIA Free-Fall Metal Detectors Are a Game-Changer for Powder and Granular Quality Control

When you’re working with powders, granules, or loose materials, metal contamination isn’t just a headache — it’s a major risk to your product quality and reputation. That’s where CEIA’s Free-Fall Metal Detector Systems come in, offering a smarter, faster way to keep your production line clean without slowing you down.

Smarter Metal Detection, Built for Real-World Production

CEIA’s THS/G21 Series is designed to fit seamlessly into free-fall and pipeline applications, picking up even the tiniest traces of metal — whether it’s ferrous, non-ferrous, or stainless steel. Thanks to Multi-Spectrum Technology, these detectors stay sharp across a wide range of products, even when things get tricky with varying textures or densities.

Some highlights:

  • Fast, accurate detection and rejection — no need to bottleneck your production flow.

  • Seamless system integration — easy connection to your existing control setups.

  • ATEX Zone 21 versions — ready for explosive environments if needed.

This isn’t your average off-the-shelf solution. CEIA builds their systems tough, with AISI 316L stainless steel and ultra-smooth finishes to make cleaning simple and keep hygiene levels high.

Two Systems, Tailored to What You Produce

For powder products:
The THS/FFV21-S uses a flap ejection valve to spot contaminants and remove them fast, without interfering with product flow. It’s built from food-safe materials and designed for easy disassembly, meaning maintenance is quick and hassle-free.

For granular products:
The THS/FFV21-CB is built around a cowbell-style valve that keeps your production line moving smoothly, with a straight path through the valve to avoid jams. Like the powder version, it’s easy to clean and made for durability.

Both models are designed to keep you running at full speed while giving you absolute confidence in your quality control.

Smarter Testing, Less Downtime

One of the standout features of CEIA’s systems is the Auto-QC™ function. Instead of relying on manual testing (which costs time and labour), Auto-QC™ automatically verifies calibration at scheduled times. It cuts down on false positives, reduces waste, and ensures your metal detector is always performing at its best — without your team having to constantly intervene.

Bottom line: less downtime, fewer headaches, better product integrity.

Built to Last, Easy to Live With

From the solid stainless steel construction to the advanced diagnostics, CEIA’s free-fall metal detectors are built for the real world — tough environments, long hours, and high demands. Plus, with certified test samples and low-maintenance designs, it’s easier than ever to keep your system running like new.

If quality, reliability, and peace of mind are top priorities for your production line, CEIA’s Free-Fall Metal Detection Systems are a smart move.
