Adams Metal Detectors: Health & Safety
Important Health & Safety Information
Great care has been taken to ensure that Adams Electronics products have been tested to be safe for use on most persons with heart pacemakers and defibrillator devices. However, it is always best to check with your Electronic Implanted Device manufacturer first to ensure that the device is safe for electronic security screening. Any individual not wanting to be screened by a hand held or walkthrough metal detector should ask the security checkpoint staff to use a manual or alternative search method.
