Slag Electro Drum Magnets

The Slag Electro Drum Magnet, or SED, features two or more symmetrical coils (depending on width) that produce a continual radial pole.

The magnet system on the SED was specially designed by our engineers using computer design software in order to maximize efficiency. This magnet system consists of a mild steel core that is wound with anodized aluminum foil. While the covers rotate, the magnet system itself remains stationary. The 2, 3, or 4 coil, continuous pole design, is made up of coils that concentrate maximum flux at the point of extraction. At the same time, an extension pole ensures that magnetic material is carried around the drum where it reaches the point of discharge. By arranging poles radially over the width of the drum, the highest level of separation is achieved and maximum entrapment of metals is ensured as a result.

Description

Additional features of the Slag Electro Drum Magnets include:

  • The Slag Electro Drum Magnets’ main shell cover offers robust construction. The shell cover is fabricated from 8mm thick, wear-resistant manganese steel. It is fully welded to the end flanges.
  • The wear cover is similarly constructed from 8mm thick, wear resistant manganese steel. The wear cover has bolted joints that allow ease of replacement. There are wiper bars fitted across the whole width of the shell. They are also seen at regular intervals around the drum shell’s circumference.
  • Low carbon steel end flanges have one end fitted with an inspection cover. This facilitates easy visual inspection of the coil and windings.
  • Copper split flange bearings allow easy maintenance.
  • Pedestal bearings with locking rings clamp the magnet securely in its working position.
  • An adjuster arm makes it easy to adjust the position of the magnet system within the drum. This arm is fitted with a turnbuckle and cone locking ring. Then the customer may set the magnet position to allow discharge of ferrous metals in accordance with their discharge chutes.
  • A BS Pitched Simplex platewheel is bolted to a robust drive ring.
  • Steel is finished with one coat of primer and two coats of RAL high performance alkyd enamel.
