Important Upgrade Notes
Field service charges are determined locally and are not included in the APEX Upgrade price. This offer includes all DSP-based products/applications (conveyors, drop throughs, pipelines) except the DSP Rx, DSP2 Minitek UK and DSP1.
The APEX Upgrade control panel must be mounted remotely for the DSP IP and DSP IP+ due to the small size of metal detector cases.
Return-to-factory upgrades will typically be completed within 2-4 weeks of receipt of your old metal detector and a purchase order in our facility. Please clean all food residues from the old metal detector before shipping it to the factory.
The above upgrades do NOT include any repair work due to moisture ingress, physical damage or general abuse. If the metal detector is in poor condition such that the APEX Upgrade may not function correctly the service or factory technician will notify you in advance of installation of the kit.
A 5-10% improvement in sensitivity typically can be achieved with the APEX upgrade, but is dependent on your application and installation
