Application
This Drum Magnet has been designed for removing ferrous items from granular or mealy products.
It is applied in the feed manufacturing industry, in flour milling, in oil mills and in other areas involving similar products.
Design
Steel housing with top-mounted material arrester and distribution device as well as two lateral inspection
doors. The inlet section is equipped with an adjustable segment-type gate covering the stainless drum jacket.
The required magnetic force is provided by permanent magnets installed inside the drum. The drum is powered
by a shaft-mounted 0.37-kW gearmotor.
Drum Magnet DFRT - maintenance-free and self-cleaning.
Mode of operation
The material is stopped by the material brake inside the inlet distributor and spread across the width of the
machine. The segment-type gate allows the desired depth of material to be selected on the rotating drum.
Any ferrous items contained in the product are held on the surface of the rotating drum by magnetic force and
carried to the non-magnetic zone where they fall into the tramp iron outlet. This magnetic separator is self-cleaning
and maintenance-free. The material arrester can be periodically cleared by hand using an actuating lever or, as an
option, automatically. The permanent magnets ensure that the magnetic force is retained without any time limit.
