Viking VM-24 Zone Archway Metal Detection System
The VM-24 uses a full strong fireproof frame with an integrated LCD touch screen host, and its zone configuration is switchable between 8, 16 and 24 positions rather than fixed at manufacture. Total sensitivity runs to 4095 levels with 300 levels per location, and it keeps working normally when large metal objects such as an X-ray machine sit right beside it.
Key benefits
- Zone count switchable between 8, 16 and 24 positions
- Total sensitivity across 4095 levels, 300 per individual location
- Works normally alongside large metal equipment such as an X-ray machine
- Two units at only 20 cm apart, or 30 cm working side by side without interference
- Full strong fireproof frame with integrated LCD touch screen host
Problems it solves
- Large nearby metal equipment destabilises an ordinary gate
- A zone count fixed at manufacture cannot be changed later
- Gates placed close together interfere with each other
- Coarse sensitivity scales cannot separate a threat from everyday metal
Who it is for
- Sites where the gate must sit next to an X-ray machine
- Operators wanting to change zone count after installation
- Buyers needing both high sensitivity and high discrimination
Application scenarios
- Airports, schools and night clubs
- Cruise ships and marine installations
- Checkpoints adjacent to X-ray baggage machines
- Indoor and outdoor public applications
Technical features
- Zone configuration switchable between 8, 16 and 24
- Frequency selectable from 1 to 99
- LCD super bright location light display with sound and light alarm
- Adjustable alarm volume, length and pitch
- Built-in diagnostic procedures with automatic boot self-check and error messages
- 7 inch display

Quality control
- Built-in diagnostic procedures with automatic boot self-checking and error messages
Customisation options
- Zone count switched between 8, 16 and 24
- Frequency selected from 1 to 99
- Alarm volume, length and pitch adjusted per environment
Compared with other models in the range
The KW-33 fixes 33 zones with a 1000-level sensitivity scale. The VM-24 lets the zone count be switched between 8, 16 and 24 after installation, and runs a 4095-level total sensitivity scale, which is the finer control of the two.
Use guide
- Switch the zone configuration to 8, 16 or 24 for the screening task
- Set total sensitivity on the 4095-level scale and refine per location across 300 levels
- Select a frequency from 1 to 99 if nearby equipment causes interference
- Space adjacent gates at least 30 cm apart for interference-free side-by-side work
- Let the automatic boot self-check complete before opening the lane
