Quick-Clean Drawer Magnet
MPI’s Quick-Cleaning Drawer Magnets utilize “Type A” magnetic circuit, to remove small to medium sized ferrous contaminant from dry powder or granular free-flowing product streams in gravity-fed vertical chutes. They employ 2-tiers of magnetic tubes for maximum magnetic filtration for protecting processing equipment, such as milling, extruding, and mixing machinery, while assuring high product quality standards with low maintenance.
Product Features
Product flows through two rows of 1” diameter magnetic tubes, designed to create an extremely effective magnetic circuit. The rows of magnetic tubes are staggered to maximize
magnetic filtration as product flows through the housing. Tramp metal contaminants move to the underside of the magnetic tubes eliminating tramp metal “wash-off.” After terminating the product flow, the magnetic tubes are pulled through non-metallic UHMW stripper assemblies, cleaning the magnetic tubes and depositing the metal contaminants outside the product stream into a collection tray.
