Ferrous Metal Detector
THE ONLY FMD WITH TRUSENSE THREAT QUALIFICATION
Introducing the Smart MRI Ferrous Metal Detector
The value of a true MRI Ferrous Metal Detector that reduces false alarms may not be readily apparent to you until a catastrophic event occurs. This preventable event can be a devastating, life changing situation for patients, staff and to your facility. All FMDs do a good job at detecting ferrous materials whether potentially threatening or not. However, the IRadimed FMD with RALU is the ONLY Ferromagnetic Detection Device with Trusense threat detection technology which reduces false alarms that contribute to alarm and reporting fatigue common with other FMD brands.
What is Trusense technology?
The Zone III magnetic signature changes as staff and equipment move around and Zone IV doors open, making it difficult for other FMDs to identify a threat. The IRadimed FMD continuously adapts to its ever changing environment by employing advanced, highly sensitive sensors allowing true magnetic threats to be detected. IRadimed’s patent pending Trusense technology predicts an approaching ferrous hazard by uniquely combining Time of Flight sensing of a threat’s speed, trajectory and Zone IV door status, with IRadimed’s expertise in Dynamic Signal Processing. This clever technology reduces false alarms, all while simultaneously circumventing background magnetic field noise, resulting in the True Sense of a True Hazard.
THE TRUSENSE NEURAL-ENGINE REDUCES FALSE ALARMS BY IDENTIFYING TRUE ZONE IV THREATS BASED ON THE FOLLOWING CRITERIA:
DOOR
POSITION
The TruSense “eyes” can recognize whether the position of the door to Zone III/IV is open or closed at all times and adjust the threat level accordingly.
AMORPHOUS SENSING
Continuously adapts based on the environment magnetic signature fluctuation as staff and equipment move around throughout the day helping reduce false alarms.
POSITION OF THE THREAT
Ferrous Location Awareness helps identify where a ferrous threat is located on a person or device by flashing the corresponding LEDs allowing staff to quickly identify an item before it becomes a hazard.
SPEED AND DIRECTION
The TruSense sensors radar like sensing determine the direction and speed of a ferrous item so staff is only alerted of true potential threats heading towards Zone IV.
The FMD dynamic signal processor adaptively adjusts for environmental changes while sensing the speed and direction of an approaching threat to determine the threat’s validity. The FMD alerts staff with color coded LED lights that illuminate green, yellow, or red combined with an intuitive STOP sign on the Remote Alarm Logging Unit (RALU) instructing the individual how to proceed into Zone IV.
