Suspended Permanent Magnets

Suspended Magnets are designed to hang above conveyors to remove ferrous material from the burden of material on the conveyor as it passes under the magnet. Permanent and Electromagnetic Suspended Magnets are available in manual or self-cleaning designs. Suspended Magnetic separators have proven to be the most effective for the removal of unwanted iron from heavy burdens of material being conveyed on fast moving belts. They are ideal for separation applications on wet or dry, fine or coarse materials in large or small tonnages. Safe, sure, tramp iron removal protects costly processing machinery and assures the purity of the product.

The uniquely designed magnetic circuit is long and flat, providing a greater area of magnetic coverage with a maximum depth of field and with less head room required than with an electromagnet. Operating advantages are many, possibility of accidental shutdown and shutdown due to power failure is eliminated – strength never varies. The unit operates at peak efficiency at all times – no heat is generated. Elevated temperatures in the 100° to 200°F (38° to 93°C) range have virtually no effect on these separators.

Two Models and Two Configurations Available

The magnet is placed across the conveyor belt. A moving continuous belt surrounds the magnet box. Ferrous material is attracted by the magnet and is held on the belt. As the belt moves clear of the magnetic field, ferrous metals fall away into bins for collection and disposal.

Model CP Permanent Magnets

The CP Magnet are ideal for general tramp iron removal from a range of materials. CP magnets utilize a permanent magnet circuit to provide a continuous and uniform magnetic field across the feed belt to optimize separation efficiency of damaging tramp iron. The self cleaning feature supplied with the unit provides for automatic removal of accumulated tramp metal.

The CP is designed for a maximum suspension height of approximately 10 inches (250 mm) on belts less than 36 inches (1 m) wide. Applications involving wider belts or higher suspension may require a larger suspended permanent magnet.

Model TP Permanent Magnets

The TP Magnets incorporate a higher strength, dual pole magnet design to offer improved separation of smaller tramp iron. TP magnets utilize a permanent magnet circuit to provide a continuous and uniform magnetic field across the feed belt to optimize separation efficiency of damaging tramp iron. The self cleaning feature supplied with the unit provides for automatic removal of accumulated tramp metal.

The TP is designed for a maximum suspension height of approximately 12 inches (300 mm) on belts less than 36 inches (1 m) wide. Applications involving wider belts or higher suspension may require a larger suspended permanent magnet.
