CEIA, a premier provider of high-performance Security Metal Detectors, today announced the availability of the new CEIA PD240CB Hand-Held Metal Detector (HHMD) that features a superior detection range for weapons and minimum metal targets.

The PD240CB combines advanced detection and operational capabilities with exceptional immunity to environmental interferences for use in difficult industry detection applications such as corrections and loss prevention. This detector is easy to use and with its specially designed detection head, along with the exclusive dual-tone alarm and dual-color display, can precisely pinpoint metal objects. Detection can occur at longer and deeper distances than standard hand-held metal detectors, allowing for non-contact or standoff inspection operation. The versatility of the design enables indoor or outdoor screening operations.

As the new addition to the CEIA HHMD product portfolio, the PD240CB exceeds the latest security standards and features embedded long-life rechargeable batteries that virtually eliminate the operating cost of alkaline batteries.

Additional features of the CEIA PD240CB include:

• Uniform detection of magnetic and non-magnetic targets
• Exceeds the NIJ Standard – 0602.02 detection requirements
• Extended, continuous operation time
• Dedicated docking station that acts as a table stand and mains connection for battery charge
• Full digital design for consistent performance and calibration-free operations
• Programmable sensitivity
