Extracts ferrous contamination on inclined chutes

  • Ideal for arduous operating conditions
  • ATEX approved versions available
  • Suitable for dry, semi-dry powders and granulates
  • Easy to clean manually
  • Can be fitted into any angled pipe or chute section

Overview - Housed Underflow Magnetic Separator

High-intensity separator suitable for installation into vertical, horizontal and inclined gravity feed chutes

Our high-intensity underflow magnet has been designed to operate in arduous conditions and where contamination size is relatively large e.g. nuts, bolts etc. The unit incorporates two magnetic poles which generate high intensity magnetic fields. The unit is secured to the chute by a hinge and toggle clamp arrangement which ensure even pressure is generated around the seal to prevent any product leakage.

The housed underflow magnet can be incorporated into any form of angled pipe or chute section. A common installation location is at raw material inlet points for products such as grain, rice, corn, bran and animal feed etc.

Applications
Suitable for dry and semi-dry powders, granulates and lumps etc.
Can be installed at all angled chute sections
