Separation Systems
Magnet systems for the food and pharmaceutical industries
Chute magnets automatic
The chute magnet is equipped with remote controls and a fully-automatic cleaning system. A valve box incorporated in the system ensures that the iron particles captured by the magnets are discharged outside the housing during the cleaning process. This system is suitable for non-continuous processes.
After stopping the material flow the cleaning cycle can be activated by giving a signal to an electric value. The valve box rotates and the magnets are moved outwards to remove the magnetic field from the housing. The captured iron particles are released and discharged via the valve box away from the product flow. The housing is fitted with rising poles designed to prevent particles captured by the magnets from being released into the product flow.
Continuous-flow systems for continuous processes are available on request; these units are designed such that the transport and separation processes can continue without interruption
during the cleaning cycle.

The standard magnet systems for the food and pharmaceutical industries are fitted with flat pre-drilled square connection flanges. A wide range of standard adapter pieces are available for the integration of these systems in an existing pipe. One end of these adapter pipes is fitted with
a pre-drilled square flange mating with the flange on the magnet system. The other end is fitted with a flat connection flange with a hole pattern in accordance with DIN2576.
Non-standard adapter pipes are available on request.
