Magnetic Filter SMF

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Friess Magnetic Filter SMF is designed for the efficient removal of particles from emulsions, cutting oils, grinding oils, and similar fluids. It offers significant advantages such as reduced operating costs, decreased machine wear, and improved surface quality due to cleaner cooling lubricants.
Technical Specifications:
  • Models: SMF 3 and SMF 5
  • Flow Rates: SMF 3 - 150 l/min (water), 75 l/min (oil); SMF 5 - 300 l/min (water), 150 l/min (oil)
  • Operating Pressure: Max 10 bar
  • Connector Sizes: SMF 3 - 1" BSP; SMF 5 - 1 1/2" BSP
  • Dirt Holding Capacity: SMF 3 - 2 kg; SMF 5 - 5 kg
  • Dimensions: 510 x 430 x 1300 mm
  • Air Pressure: Min 6 bar, Max 7 bar
  • Operating Temperature: 5 °C - 60 °C
Operating Principle:
  • The SMF magnetic filter removes ferritic and paramagnetic particles down to less than 1 µm, ensuring that even the smallest particles are attracted and removed.
  • Unlike conventional filters, the SMF does not clog, maintaining clear flow paths even when full.
Cleaning Process:
  • Cleaning involves closing inlet and outlet valves, using compressed air to remove magnets from cladding tubes, and flushing out dirt particles.
  • Manual operation of valves is required, unlike the automated ASMF model.
Applications: Suitable for use with emulsions, coolants, drawing oil, washing water, grinding & honing oil, and fuel. A high-temperature version is available for applications above 60 °C.

Magnetic Filter SMF-2

Data Sheet Magnetic Filter SMF 1. Operation of the Magnetic Filter With conventional filters, particles smaller than the specified pore size of the filter remain in the liquid and accumulate unhindered. The SMF magnetic filter removes ferritic particles of all sizes down to less than 1 µm. The magnetic filter removes iron and steel particles. In addition, paramagnetic particles made of stainless steel or hard metal are attracted by the magnetic filter rods and removed from the liquid. Operating principle conventional filter 2.

Magnetic Filter SMF-3

Data Sheet Magnetic Filter SMF 2. Cleaning of magnetic filter 3. Flushing with additional fluid 5. Cleaning the Magnetic Filter SMF The inlet and outlet valves are closed for cleaning the magnet bars. Then the high-performance magnets are pulled out of the cladding tubes by the compressed air cylinder. When the sludge drain valve is opened, the dirt particles are flushed out of the filter. Residual dirt is removed by briefly opening the flushing valve. In contrast to the ASMF model, the valves must be opened and closed manually. 6. Applications Emulsion / coolant 7.
