![]() |
The SAFESCAN EAGLE Early Warning Sentinel is the latest ferromagnetic (ONLY) detection product from Mednovus. This single pillar system activates a multi-tone audio alarm and vivid strength-of-signal multi-light display when presented with approaching ferromagnetic threat objects. The SAFESCAN EAGLE Early Warning Sentinel is designed for automated patient/staff Pre-Screening. An excellent strategic location for the EAGLE is within Zone II before patients/staff enter the control room/Zone III. We would be pleased to discuss the optimal siting for the EAGLE to best accomodate your MRI facility.
- Excellent for automated ferromagnetic (ONLY) screening of ambulatory subjects with continuous monitoring for ferromagnetic threat objects
- Strength of signal display with variable-tone alarm
- Manufactured without compromise in North America to the highest standards utilizing only premium quality components (gold contacts, ultra-low noise op amps, ISO 9001 sensors, etc.)
- Features the same proven sensor technology as the INTERCEPT PILLAR system
- Machined aluminum casing built to last years in high-volume MRI facilities
- Utilizes small non-radiating, completely passive DC field to increase
sensitivity - proprietary patented feature which does NOT
affect imaging quality or patient safety (no magnetic pulses of
any kind; no need for shielding) - 4 sensitivity settings allow accommodation to your environment
- Sensor array utilizing multiple premium ISO9001 certified sensors
- The use of gradiometers to significantly reduce objectionable false alarms
- No expensive installation fees - "unpack-use" easy setup in minutes
- Mednovus Quality, Durability, and Warranty
- Instructional video included
SAFESCAN EAGLE (Single Pillar System)
Aperture | Open. |
Controls | ON / OFF rocker power switch. Volume, variable rotary control. Sensitivity, multi position rotary switch. |
Power Indicator | Power "on", 1 green LED. |
Light Indicator | 8 red LEDs, illuminated in 4 strength-of-signal multi-light stages. Number of stages activated increases with increased ferromagnetic threat. |
Audio | Variable tone, pitch increases with increased threat. |
Activation | Multi-sensor range detection in early warning alarm zone. Continuous monitoring. |
Alarm Mgmt. | Utilizes gradiometers to reduce nuisance alarms from nearby moving metal / electromagnetic signals. |
Power | AC adapter. Input 100-240 VAC, 3-prong power plug, 50/60 Hz, 0.06A maximum, 0.03A nominal. UL listed E210311, CE mark. |
Size | Freestanding - 73 1/2" high x base (14" wide x 13" deep): 1.83 x 0.36 x 0.43 m. Mounted – 73 1/2" high x aluminum tube (3" x 3"): 1.83 x 0.076 x 0.076 m. |
Weight | Freestanding - 35 lbs (15.9 kg), including movable base plate (shipping weight approx. 77 lbs (35.1 kg). Mounted - 23 lbs (10.5 kg). |
Warranty | Parts and service for defects in manufacturing / workmanship (North America). |
Detection | Sensor array in gradiometer configuration on each pillar, utilizing multiple ISO9001 certified sensors. Enhanced sensitivity achieved by using a patented small, non-radiating DC (passive) field, which diminishes to less than 5 G at a distance of 18-inches. Does not affect imaging quality, credit cards, or cell phones. |
Patented | Protected by multiple issued Patents. |

Differences between the SAFESCAN STAR and the SAFESCAN EAGLE Single Pillar Systems:
SAFESCAN STAR (SINGLE PILLAR)
Excellent for automated FMD patient/staff screening:
- Visual and audio alarms are activated only when the infrared beam is traversed and a ferromagnetic threat is detected
- Large LED lights atop the pillar
- Night-light mode and sensitivity lock for after-hours protection
SAFESCAN EAGLE (SINGLE PILLAR)
Excellent for automated patient/staff FMD screening, and as an “early warning detection system” for ferromagnetic threats approaching the pillar:
- Continuous monitoring for ferromagnetic threat objects with strength-of-signal light bar display
- Light bar visual response corresponds to the size of the signal detected
- Two-tone audio alarm can be turned off in a noisy environment, while visual response still provides protection
- Can be sited with maximum flexibility to enhance the safety of your facility
