The primary purpose of ferromagnetic detectors is to prevent ferromagnetic objects from entering Zone III (controlled access area) and Zone IV (MRI scanner room), where they can become projectiles due to the powerful magnetic field. These detectors enhance patient and staff safety by identifying potentially hazardous ferromagnetic materials, such as certain medical implants, tools, and personal items. Performance required; System must satisfy National VA MRI Directive 1105.05 pg. 13. System must satisfy American College of Radiology manual on MR Safety. Must provide a pre warning on approach to the magnet room. System must reduce alarm fatigue which is recommended by The Joint Commission. System must not have alarms on the door which include the opening and closing of the door, to prevent constant alarm sounding which lead to alarm fatigue. System must only alarm on entry into the magnet and not alarm on exit. Non-ferromagnetic material must not activate the alarms. System must have both audio and visual signals that will activate on detection of ferromagnetic materials. Essential physical characteristics; Dimensions (if applicable) The system must have a minimum height of 83 . The width of the system should be specific to the width of the current entryway door into the magnet room, which must be wide enough for stretcher, ADA compliant. The power supply must be a minimum of 100 volts ac power and a maximum of 240 volts ac power.
