Seven steps to adapt to your own SOP. How often depends on your hazard analysis and how much iron you find.

For food plants working to HACCP / ISO 22000. Arrowmatics is not itself certified; this checklist supports your programme and does not replace it.

## The routine

- Isolate and make safe. Stop the line or divert product. Keep tools, watches and steel items clear of the strong magnet face.
- Open or release. Swing the hinged plate open or use the quick-release to lift it out.
- Remove and record captured metal. Take off ferrous fragments, note the amount and type, and investigate any change or sudden increase.
- Clean the face and seams. Wipe or wash with your approved cleaning method and sanitiser, and confirm nothing remains on the surface.
- Inspect the weld seams and face. Look for dents, cracks, pitting, discolouration or damage to the stainless surface. Report any breach of the seal.
- Verify performance. Do a cling or pull test with a test piece, or take a Gauss-meter reading on the surface if your programme requires it.
- Close, refit and sign off. Return the plate to position, check the latch and mounting, and sign the log.
