Magnetic Products Inc. (MPI) specializes in Liquid Trap Magnetic Separators, or Liquid Finger Trap Magnets (LFTs), designed to eliminate ferrous contaminants from liquid and semi-liquid processing streams. These separators are crucial in industries like food processing, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and paper mills, where product purity and equipment protection are vital. Recognized for their innovative designs and powerful magnets, MPI's Liquid Trap Magnets are the preferred choice for high-purity liquid filtration. They effectively remove contaminants from liquids and slurries in high-flow environments, ensuring product integrity and safeguarding downstream equipment. The magnets are installed inline within processing systems to capture ferrous particles as liquid flows through, with easy maintenance facilitated by quick-release clamps for routine access to the magnetic assembly. This design ensures reliable contaminant removal and maintains the quality of processed liquids.
The Blade Magnet™ features an ergonomic power-grip handle for better control and reduced strain. Its 2-inch, 11,500-gauss tube outperforms standard models and includes a metal-detectable stripper for safety. Equipped with Intell-I-Mag®, it enables real-time magnet monitoring. Ideal for food, chemical, pharmaceutical, boiler protection, and paper mills, it removes ferrous contaminants while ensuring unrestricted flow. Made from rare earth neodymium magnets and stainless steel, it meets USDA standards and requires minimal maintenance.
Magnetic Products Inc. (MPI) Combination Tube and Screener Liquid Trap Magnets are designed to effectively remove ferrous contaminants from liquids, slurries, and semi-liquid materials while also screening out larger particles. This innovative system combines magnetic separation with screening capabilities to ensure product purity and protect equipment, making it ideal for industries such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and manufacturing. The design integrates a Liquid Tube Magnet with a screener basket, enhancing filtration by effectively separating both metallic contaminants and larger particulates.
Magnetic Products Inc. (MPI) High Pressure Liquid Trap Magnets are engineered to remove ferrous contaminants from liquids, slurries, and semi-liquids in high-pressure systems. They are built to withstand extreme conditions, making them ideal for industries like food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and manufacturing. These magnets ensure product purity, protect equipment, and comply with strict industry standards by effectively eliminating contaminants in chemical processing, food production, and paper milling, all while maintaining product consistency.
Magnetic Products Inc. (MPI) Tube Liquid Trap Magnets are specifically engineered to effectively eliminate ferrous impurities from liquids, slurries, and semi-liquid substances. These magnets have high-intensity magnetic tubes encased in a stainless-steel exterior, ensuring dependable contaminant management for high-flow liquid processing applications. They are particularly beneficial for food processing, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, milling, and manufacturing, helping to sustain product integrity and safeguard downstream machinery.
MPI Plate Liquid Trap Magnets are designed to remove ferrous contaminants from liquids, slurries, and semi-liquid materials. Featuring a flat magnetic plate in a sturdy casing, these magnets effectively remove contaminants in a compact design. Ideal for industries like food processing, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and industrial manufacturing, they ensure product purity and protect downstream equipment. Capable of extracting tramp metal from thick, fibrous, or chunky slurries, these externally mounted magnets can be equipped with one or two plates for enhanced strength without disrupting product flow.
Magnetic Products Inc. (MPI) Inline Magnetic Tubes provide a cost-effective and efficient method to safeguard products transported in liquid process lines from unwanted tramp metal contamination. Multiple Inline Magnetic Tubes can be installed in a product process chute, spout, or pipe to enhance magnetic filtration. These tubes are an excellent choice for existing process lines that are difficult to modify for conventional magnetic separation equipment, such as Plate, Grate, or Drawer magnets.
