Suspended Belt Magnets

 

 

Suspended Belt Magnets are constructed with an oversized Plate Magnet. They are designed for suspension above a belt conveyor. As product passes under the magnet, metal contaminants are drawn out of the material to the face of the magnet. This style of magnet should be installed at the discharge of the head pulley if possible. Material will be flowing more freely and can be thrown into the face of the magnet increasing the separation results over an installation that has the magnet suspended over a troughed belt. This can be supplied with a wiper arm or stripper plate to simplify cleaning. For automated continuous cleaning, a POW-R CLEAN option can be selected which incorporates a set of pulleys, belt, motor, and reducer that travels around the Suspended Belt Magnet discharging metal contaminants automatically.

 

This unit when suspended above the conveyor belt or head pulley automatically discharges the tramp metal that has been removed from the product burden. Similar to the manual clean unit, this design incorporates a set of pulleys along with a motor and reducer to drive a cleated belt around the magnet assembly.

 

 

Available in permanent and electromagnetic designs.
