PERMANENT MAGNETIC SEPARATORS

Self Cleaning and Manual

Permanent self-cleaning magnet

Permanent manually-cleaned magnet

Walker's permanent-magnet suspended separators use powerful Ceramax magnets for increased efficiency in the separation of ferrous materials. The permanent magnet design has a lower installation cost than the electromagnet type, because no DC rectifier is required, and operating costs are also lower, since the magnets consume no power. Suspension heights up to 10" to 12" are available.
These separators are available in manual and self-cleaning designs. Manually cleaned magnets can be supplied with a stripper mechanism, and the self-cleaning type uses a two-pulley design. Parallel self-cleaning magnets are mounted in line with the material flow, while transverse self-cleaning magnets remove the ferrous materials over the side of the conveyor.
