Description
How Liquid Fingertrap Tube Magnets Work:
The tramp metal collects at the downstream side of the magnetic tubes, preventing tramp metal “wash-off” during the continuous product flow around and through the magnetic field without restricting the product flow. Additionally, non-magnetic particles are trapped, by gravity, in a sump beneath the magnetic element.
Liquid Fingertrap Tube Magnet Options:
- Pipe Size: Available in diameters from 1” to 6” in any increment.
- Maximum Operating Pressure:
- 150 PSI at 248°F (120°C) (standard on sizes 4” and smaller)
- 75 PSI at 248°F (120°C) (standard on sizes 5” and larger)
- Cleaning Method:
- Manual clean (standard)
- Manual quick-clean with a sleeve over stripper for easy removal of tramp metal. Not recommended for sticky products. Sleeve over design reduces magnetic performance at contact.
- Magnet Element: Four different styles are available depending on your application
- Array of 1” diameter tubes designed for liquids, purees, and products with solids 1/2” and smaller
- Single 3” diameter tube mounted in the center of housing designed for products with fragments, solids or chucks up to 1” in size
- Plate magnet design with one or two plate magnets mounted on the outside of the product flow for very difficult flowing and fibrous products
- Combination magnet and screen design
