Permanent Plate Magnet

At A Glance

Protection: Primary

Feed Type: Conveyor

Material Type: Ferrite

Cleaning Type: Manual

Permanent plate magnets are used in recycling, quarrying and heavy industries. These units can be placed above flat or trough type conveyors. Large permanent magnetic packs generate deep penetrating magnetic flux fields that attract and remove ‘tramp’ type steel items. This unit is considerably less expensive than electro- magnetic units and, as it has no running costs other than cleaning, much cheaper to run. When considering installation points it should be noted that steel belt support rollers will needs to be changed to non- magnetic ones due to possible flux field absorption. For heavily contaminated materials consider the self cleaning permanent magnetic overband.

The magnetism cannot be switched off so cleaning has to be done manually using either a scraper tool or gloved hand. To aid cleaning, plate magnets can be supplied with a sliding cleaning plate.
