MPI’s type ‘B’
magnetic separators utilize a north & south magnetic "pole"
with large spacing between poles to create a powerful magnetic field
to capture and retain medium to large sized tramp metal contaminants.
Type ‘B’ magnets are ideally suited for applications that
include high product volume stream flows and the need to capture
and retain large volumes of tramp metal between magnet cleaning
cycles. Type ‘B’ magnets are available in a wide range
of models each having many standard sizes to meet your specific
application and budget requirements.
MPI offers a key tool to assist in implementing
and maintaining an effective magnetic separation equipment Quality
Control program. This tool is known as the MPI Pull Test Kit (PTK)
and is designed for in plant use to inspect and document the performance
of existing magnetic separators. PTK’s are ideal for companies
committed to quality HACCP, TQM, GMP or other similar programs.
PLATE
MAGNET MPI’s Plate Magnet provides a very
effective yet economical magnetic protection in gravity-fed
angled chutes. These magnets are available in a very wide
range of models, configurations and sizes to meet nearly
any application. As products pass over or under the magnet,
tramp metal is pulled to the magnet’s working surface
and held in place until removed by either manual or automatic
self cleaning methods, depending on the model selected.
MAGNETIC
ROTARY FEEDER MPI’s Magnetic Rotary Feeder
offers both a controlled product feed device into process
equipment such as Hammer Mills and a very effective magnetic
separator all in one. This model is available in mounting
flange patterns to retro-fit onto existing Hammer Mills
to provide better hammer and screen wear and improvements
in grinding capacity feed rates. These models can easily
be modified at our factory to fit other types of process
equipment. The powerful Plate Magnet is mounted to the
feeder with MPI’s exclusive magnet track cleaning
system. This provides an easy, one hand cleaning feature
on manual clean models that really works and is available
in automatic self cleaning design also.
MAGNETIC HUMP
MPI’s Hump Magnet includes the use of (2) Plate Magnets
installed into a Hump shaped housing designed for use
in vertical gravity chutes. As the product drops through
the chute it passes across the 1st Plate Magnet where
metals are captured. The Hump configuration of the unit
causes the product to "flip over" as it passes
across the 2nd magnet. This method of handling the product
through the magnetic separator provides superior metal
removal performance.
SUSPENDED
ELECTRO MAGNET
MPI’s Suspended Electro Magnet has been developed
to handle high volume product stream flows that exceed
the limitations of standard permanent suspended magnets.
These models are available in both, manual on/off or automatic,
self cleaning system designs. Electrical Power Supplies
to operate the magnets are also available and recommended
to ensure proper electrical power is supplied to the magnet.
MAGNETIC
CHUTE
MPI’s Magnetic Chute includes the use of (2) or (4)
Plate Magnets located on opposite sides of a vertical
chute depending on the model selected. As product is conveyed
by gravity vertically, the tramp metal contaminants are
captured by the opposing Plate Magnets. These models offer
a very effective yet low profile elevation magnetic solution
and are available in either (2) or (3) cell configurations
with manual or automatic self cleaning design options.
LIQUID
PLATE TRAP
MPI’s Liquid Plate Trap is available in single or
double Plate Magnet models and is designed to fit in standard
liquid product process lines. As product is pumped past
the powerful permanent Plate Magnet, tramp iron is captured.
The magnet(s) is easily removed from the housing without
the requirement of tools to remove collected tramp iron.
Housings are offered in either a industrial class or sanitary
food grade surface finish.
SUSPENDED
PERMANENT MAGNET
MPI’s Suspended Permanent Magnet provides a deep
reaching magnetic field able to lift and capture tramp
metal from high speed product conveyor belts at a distance
of up to 12" from the conveyor belt surface. An effective
MPI exclusive designed manual winch, cable and collection
pan cleaning system is offered on larger models. A motor
driven automatic self cleaning continuous cleated belt
system is also available.
