Device description
Intended use / user indications
Product
The device is suited for separation of ferromagnetic (Fe) parts out of free flowing powder and granular
products,
grain size up to 10 mm
, such as flour, sugar, coffee beans, plastics, ceramics, etc.
Not suited for (moist) products that are sticky and/or badly flowing.
Fe particle size
Suited for product flows with Fe particles of
30 µm
and larger, depending on magnet strength quality.
See product specs in the appendices for exact Fe parts size specification.
Product should be free of Fe part size and weight that can cause damage to the magnet bar tubes.
Mechanical or other sieving of larger parts is advised.
Foreign part size
Foreign part (like other metals) size that can cause damage to the magnet bar tubes have to be filtered
out.
Mechanical or other sieving is advised.
Temperature
Suited for surrounding temperatures from -20 °C up to +40 °C and product temperatures from -20 °C up
to +60 °C with standard Neoflux® magnets.
See product specifications in the appendices for max. product temperature.
The magnet is to be protected against higher temperatures than prescribed, because the magnet might
lose magnetic force permanently
when exposed to high temperatures
Air pressure
The relative pressure inside the device must be under 0.2 barG. The relative vacuum inside the device
must be under -0.5 barG.
If an air pressure coupling is mounted on the flange, it may be redundant if the product channel has an
overpressure. Also, it may not function if there is a relative vacuum in the product channel.
Air pressure between seals on motor shaft and housing
An air pressure seal may be mounted between the motor and Cleanflow housing. This is to prevent any
oil or debris from the motor reductor from entering the product channel. If an air coupling is mounted to
the motor mounting flange, then the maximum supply pressure is 0.1 barG. This pressure may only be
connected if an air coupling is mounted. If a closing plug is fitted, then the system is not suitable for
applying an overpressure. The air coupling will only work optimally if the air pressure is equal between
the outside and inside of the product chute.
Free space
Make sure that there is approximately 1 meter of free space around the SECR to perform and ease the
inspection and maintenance operation.
