FerrAlert™ HALO II Plus

FerrAlert™ Halo II Plus guards at the entrance into the MRI exam room, providing the most precise and reliable detection of medium to large ferromagnetic threats. FerrAlert™ Halo II Plus provides significant assistance in the prevention of serious injury to patients and staff or equipment damage. FerrAlert™ detectors are recognized to be the most accurate ferromagnetic detectors for MRI due to their exclusive location-specificity feature. FerrAlert™ detectors have been independently tested to be the most sensitive in real-world MRI environments due to its unique and patented sensor technology.

Easily Understood Status Indicators:

The GREEN LED HALO array illuminated around the MRI entrance indicates that the detector is scanning and there are no ferromagnetic threats detected.

A YELLOW beacon light indicates that a threat is approaching the portal.

The RED LED HALO array flashes the entire portal, indicating a major threat such as a ventilator or oxygen cylinder is approaching the portal.

The greater the threat, the further away the warning is activated. Ferrous objects not approaching the entrance to Zone IV do not trigger an audible warning. A ferromagnetic object is not a threat until it tries to enter the magnet room.
