hi

can we use one  set of metal detection test pieces for similar products but different weights .

 

we use 3.5 ferrous. 4.5 non ferrous and 5.0 s/steel 

the product are low moisture <14% and most of them are blended seasonings some have higher salt levels then others .

we pack the product  in 25kg packs and currently use the above test pieces ,my question is can i use the same test pieces or would i have to carry out sensitivity checks on 16kg and 10kg ?

and how would i do this please ( i am very new to metal detection so not sure ) 

 

thanks in advance

Hi sniadanie,

 

Basic answer is YES.

 

Is there a FS Standard related to yr query ? eg BRC ?

Thank you ,we have to comply with BRC and M&S

I assume you have a copy of BRC Standard in which case a Procedure is discussed in this thread -

Regarding M&S sorry no idea but other posters may know.
