For Immediate Release:
The Right Magnetic Separators for Pneumatic Line Processing Applications
Posted On 4/27/2010 By Industrial Magnetics, Inc.
 Industrial Magnetics, Inc. offers three types of magnetic
separators to trap unwanted ferrous metal from processed
products in pneumatic line applications: The Pneumatic Line
Housing, the Bullet Magnet and the Exposed Pole Tube Magnet.
The Pneumatic Line Housing (PLH) is
suitable for
processing dry, powder, and granular materials in dilute
phase systems and is configured with a series of 1 inch
dia., 50 MgOe rare-earth tubes on staggered centers. This
design ensures that all product flowing through the housing
makes repeated contact with the magnets and results in a
capture rate of ferrous and weakly magnetic stainless
contaminants that far exceeds any other magnetic separator
available for this type of application. The PLH is also
available as a Self-Cleaning, sealed unit which eliminates
line pressure drops and surges, is leak-proof up to 15 PSI
and eliminates the need for operator-required cleaning of
metal contamination.
IMI’s Bullet Magnet® is also used in dilute
phase systems
and is commonly utilized ahead of processing equipment and
bulk load out to assure product purity and protect machinery
from tramp metal damage. Aerodynamically shaped with a
solid, stainless steel nose cone diverter, the flow-thru
design of the Bullet Magnet® maintains uniform velocity in-
line flow, allowing it to be used anywhere in the pneumatic
system. Bullet Magnet® applications include: movement of
powder and granular, flour, chemical, plastic, food stuff,
pharmaceutical and mineral materials.
The Exposed Pole Tube Magnet is utilized in
pneumatic
line applications where product degradation is a concern,
with fibrous products, or products that have a higher
moisture content with a tendency to clog or congeal. The EP
Tube consists of a rare earth magnet on a hinged door, which
allows the magnet to be swung out of the product flow for
cleaning collected tramp metal. Applications include the
processing of pelletized foods, feed or grains.
