Suspended Electro Magnet

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed information on Suspended Electro Magnetic Separators (SE Magnets) used for removing tramp iron from conveyor belts in industrial settings. These magnets are crucial for protecting downstream equipment and ensuring the integrity of conveyor belts.
Features:
  • Constructed for durability and reliability, suitable for 24/7 operations.
  • Available in manual and self-cleaning models, adaptable to different levels of iron contamination.
  • Installation options include across the conveyor belt or in-line over the discharge head pulley.
  • Equipped with an oil expansion tank to prevent condensation and extend coil life.
Applications:
  • Automatic removal of tramp iron from various feed materials.
  • Special designs available for explosion-proof applications and apron feeder applications.
Special Options:
  • High flash point coolants and dust covers.
  • Permanent extension magnets and monitoring devices for enhanced safety and efficiency.
Magnet Styles:
  • Manual Clean (MC): Suitable for low quantities of tramp iron, requiring periodic de-energization for cleaning.
  • Self-Clean (SC): Provides continuous automatic removal, ideal for high tramp iron volumes or limited access scenarios.
Installation Positions:
  • In-Line Position: Preferred for efficient separation as material is discharged from the conveyor belt.
  • Cross-Belt Position: Requires a stronger magnet, not recommended for high-speed or deep burden applications.
Factors Influencing Performance:
  • Belt speed, burden depth, and size/shape of ferrous components affect separation efficiency.
  • Magnetic field configuration is crucial, with the strongest field at the center of the magnet.
Large Force Cooled (LFC) Magnets:
  • Custom-designed for wide conveyor belts, providing powerful magnetic fields for deep burdens.
  • Ideal for high tonnage and fast-moving conveyors in mining applications.

SUSPENDED ELECTRO c> Suspended Electro Magnetic Separators (SE Magnets) are typically installed above conveyor belts to remove large pieces of tramp metal that represent a hazard to downstream equipment such as crushers, mills, pulverisers and grinders; or to remove sharp metal that can damage or tear expensive conveyor belts, especially at transfer points. APPLICATIONS • Automatic removal of small or large volumes of tramp iron from wide range of feed materials • Special designs for explosion proof applications (compliant with European Atex regulations) • Special design units for apron feeder...

SUSPENDED ELECTRO IN-LINE POSITION • Magnet suspended over the trajectory of material as it is discharged from the belt conveyor. • This is the preferred option as it is the most efficient use of the magnetic separator i.e. when the burden is ‘opened up’ in flight and is moving directly toward the magnet face. The iron’s momentum towards the magnet can assist in its separation. • When the magnet is in this position, it is essential that the conveyor head pulley is made of a nonmagnetic material.

SUSPENDED ELECTRO FACTORS INFLUENCING SEPARATION PERFORMANCE • Belt speed: As the belt speed increases, it becomes more difficult to remove ferrous components. Larger, stronger SE magnets may be required for faster belt speeds. • Burden depth: As the burden depth on the conveyor belt increases, a stronger magnetic field is needed to pull the tramp iron up through the material bed. • Size of ferrous component: Small pieces of tramp metal may be extremely difficult to remove especially when they are covered by a heavy overburden of material, compared to large items like bucket teeth, rail spikes...
