The MT 5500 is one of the world's most popular walk-though metal
detectors because it provides maximum throughput with unparalleled
multi-dimensional scanning. The MT 5500 meets the demanding needs of
security professionals worldwide who trust its ability to maintain a
high flow rate with minimal alarms.
Key Features
- Indicates the side a metal target is located with precision
and ease
- Uniform detection field eliminates "hot spots"
- Advanced microprocessor-driven technology incorporated in
detection and control circuitry
- Enhanced sensitivity for more accurate weapons detection
- Durable and professional design for years of use
- Touchpads and backlit LCD screen offer clearer and easier use
- User-friendly programming for precise control of detection
settings
- Computerized access codes ensure tamper-proof settings
Easy Assembly: Garrett's MT 5500 is easily assembled with
only 4 (four) pieces and 8 (eight) screws and simple to follow
instructions.
Multi-Dimensional Scanning: The MT 5500 uses
multi-dimensional scanning which ensures maximum throughput and
uniform screening with a minimum of false alarms. Multiple coil
circuitry with dual alarm lights inform operators on which side of
the detector the target is located. With "hot spots" eliminated, the
unit's detection field is uniform throughout the archway and false
alarms are significantly minimized.
Microprocessor Controlled: State of the art
microprocessors ensure sensitivity and flexibility of programming
with a maximum of 200 distinct sensitivity levels in each program.
Audible and Visual Alarms: Audible alarm with 3 distinct
tones indicating target on the left, right or center of the archway;
two LED bar graphs related to the red Alarm Lights that report
detectable metal on either side of the unit or centered within it.
Detection Field: Unique coil design offers
multidimensional detection field with total uniformity both
horizontally and vertically. This design, plus a choice of three
levels of ankle level boost, eliminates traditional hot spots and
weak signals. Target detection is precise regardless of its location
in the archway.
Specifications:
- Operating Temperatures
-4°F (-20° C) to +158°F (70°C); Humidity to 95% non-condensing
- Power
Fully automatic 100 to 240 VAC, 50 or 60 Hertz, 5 watts; no
rewiring, switching or adjustments required. Power supply meets
UL, CSA, TUV and VDE standards
- Weatherproofing / Foreign Object Protection Standards
Meets IP 31, IEC Standard. "Degrees of Protection provided by
Enclosures," CEI 529
- Tamper-Proof
Dual-level access codes required to set or change all sensitivity
settings and detection programs; one level for use by supervisors
in selecting programs and sensitivity and the other for initial
set-up and overall control; non-resettable sequence code logs all
attempts to access the settings. Audible alarm reports any
unauthorized attempt at access
- Construction
Attractive scratch and mar-resistant laminate with resilient end
caps; control panel and cross members of heavy duty aluminum.
- Control Outputs
Solid state switches (low voltage AC or DC) for operating external
alarms and control devices.
- Synchronization
Multiple channels permit several MT 5500s and other Garrett
detectors to operate simultaneously in close proximity
- Interference Suppression
100% sensor coil Faraday shielding; RFI interference reduced with
hardware; special Garrett built-in circuitry for noise suppression
and ignoring x-ray monitors. Physical interference minimized by
coil design and circuitry
- Alarms
Ready light indicates unit is operational; alarm lights and
audible alarms with variable tones are activated when the target
amount of metal is detected; location of alarm lights on left and
right side of display combined with variable tone indicates which
side the of th person the target is located.
- Infrared Sensor
Provides traffic counter, helps eliminate "false alarms and
increases throughput
- Masking
Programs designed to eliminate the problem of dissimilar targets
canceling each other.
- Warranty
Limited 24 months, parts and labor
