Prong Magnets
STAR TRACE's Prong Magnets (or) Liquid Line Magnetic Traps are designed to extract the ferrous materials from the slurry or liquid raw materials in order to purify the material in the production process. Strong magnetic tubes filter the flow and extract the unwanted ferrous metal. The unit is simply connected to the existing pipeline via flanged or threaded ends. Simple and easy access is possible using the quick release lid. Cleaning of the magnets is easily accomplished by removing the cover plate of the housing and sliding out each magnet assembly.
- Highest grade of magnet material with choices including Neodymium-Iron-Boron(rare-earth), Samarium-Cobalt (rare-earth), Ceramic and Alnico.
- 100% Stainless Steel construction.
- Liquid tight with food grade O-rings.
- Easy access for inspection and maintenance.
- Tri-clamp, Bevel-seat (Acme thread), or weld end inlet and outlets.
- It is equipped with high-energy Rare-earth Magnets. Diameter of magnetic bar is 1".
- Construction uses Type 304 stainless steel. Type 316 stainless steel available on request.
- It can be fastened by screw nuts; it also can be fastened by band clamp.
- Easy-clean type can be provided on request.
- All of magnetic bars are waterproof.
- Condition: Well polished.
Application
Prong Magnets are engineered to remove ferrous contaminants from liquid and slurry lines. Efficiently remove tramp iron before maintenance and product contamination problems occur. The benefits of this magnetic separator can be experienced in most cases with no appreciable pressure drop or reduction in flow rates. All units incorporate a sump type housing to trap non-ferrous particles. Liquid Traps may be installed horizontally, vertically, or on an angle without affecting their magnetic efficiency.
