A Magnetic Filter is a device that uses a magnet to remove impurities and other magnetic materials from fluid and semi-fluid. It is usually installed inside or outside the hopper, discharge port, and transportation pipeline. The magnet attracts the magnetic materials from the fluid flow and separates them from the non-magnetic materials. The magnetic materials are then discharged or cleaned manually or automatically. The Magnetic Filter is designed to protect the downstream machinery from damage caused by metal contamination.
The Magnetic Filter is widely used in various industries, such as recycling, mining, plastic, steel, chemical, and pharmaceutical. The Magnetic Filter can improve the quality and purity of the product, reduce the waste and energy consumption, and save resources. The Magnetic Filter is available in different types, sizes, strengths, speeds, and depths, depending on the application and the material size. The Magnetic Filter can be manual or automatic, depending on the operator’s preference.
Magnetic filters work by producing a magnetic field or loading zones that collect magnetic iron and steel particles. The higher the magnetic gradient, the stronger the attracting magnetic force acting on particles drawing them toward the loading zones. The strength of the magnetic gradient is determined by flux density, spacing and alignment of the magnets.
