PMD2 Plus/EZHD

Elliptical, multi-zone metal detector optimized for heavy-duty use

Strict requirements and detection needs demand that security checkpoints operate efficiently even under very difficult conditions. The PMD2 Plus/EZHD detects firearms and knives, even when hidden in body cavities, and accurately indicates the position of the threat, its intensity, and its predominant composition. The PMD2 Plus/EZHD features a very low false alarm rate even with the strictest security standards required today, thus enabling high throughput rates and minimal intervention by control personnel.

  • Excellent detection performance and throughput
  • Compliant with and certified to applicable standards for enhanced metal detectors
  • New mechanical design with high protection rating
  • Fast installation: no tools required for assembly
  • Aesthetic, Compact, and Lightweight
  • Unmatched reliability

Detection of All Metallic Dangerous Objects

  • Capability to detect the entire range of metallic weapons even in body cavities
  • Fast, accurate analysis of all body parts of persons in transit, from shoes to the upper body
  • Guaranteed coverage in all orientations and positions, no calibration required
  • Met-Identity technology for identifying the composition of dangerous objects

High discrimination performance and high throughput

  • Thanks to state-of-the-art discrimination technology, personal items are ignored, allowing for rapid transit
  • Items such as belts, coins, keys, jewelry, watches, wallets, etc., do not need to be removed
  • Better discrimination performance = shorter queues and/or lower staffing requirements

The most powerful and versatile security features

  • Up to 50 integrated security programs: up to 30 international standards; up to 20 customizable security levels
  • Smart card system for quick, easy, and secure parameter changes (e.g., alarm volume and tone, counter reading, etc.) as well as security level selection.
  • Each security standard can be extended by a selectable random probability for alarms

Unique Alarm Signaling

  • Excellent visibility of the control unit and zone display, regardless of operator position and installation environment
  • Flexible acoustic alarm signal system: 10 continuous and pulsed tones; 34 special tones
  • 10 alarm volume levels
  • High-precision transit counter:
    • Inbound and outbound transits
    • Calculation of alarm frequency
    • Automatic compensation for repeated transits by the same person

Immunity to external interference

Thanks to its exceptional immunity to environmental interference, the metal detector can be used without problems even in the presence of electrical interference.
