MPI Pneumatic Line Magnets are designed for high-velocity pressure and vacuum conveying systems, enabling inline metal separation without disrupting material flow. These compact separators use powerful rare earth magnets to effectively capture fine and weakly magnetic contaminants in fast-moving product streams. Central to their technology is the patented Wave Magnet design, which enhances magnetic field exposure and holding strength by creating turbulence that increases metal capture efficiency. Constructed from rugged, hygienic stainless steel, these tools allow for easy access to the magnetic core and are suitable for sensitive downstream equipment. Their modular design accommodates both horizontal and vertical mounting, making them versatile for various applications. Ideal for industries like food, plastics, and nutraceuticals, MPI Pneumatic Line Magnets ensure exceptional ferrous separation performance while complying with FDA, USDA, and cGMP standards, thereby enhancing product quality and equipment protection in high-throughput environments.
The patented Wave™ Self-Clean Pneumatic Line Magnet is designed for use in pressurized or vacuum pneumatic conveying systems, where it captures ferrous contaminants from dry materials like powders and granules. Featuring a patented sinusoidal magnetic cartridge, it generates controlled turbulence that enhances the capture of fine, fast-moving metal particles. As metal accumulates, the self-cleaning mechanism activates at scheduled intervals or on demand, retracting the magnet and using compressed air to clear the magnetic surface without interrupting the material flow. This system allows operators to set cleaning cycles based on time or sensor input, ensuring efficient operation with minimal downtime.
The MPI Pneumatic Line Magnet is a high-performance magnetic separation system designed for pneumatic conveying lines, effectively eliminating ferrous contaminants from dry powders and granular materials. It features a high-intensity rare earth magnetic cartridge that allows uninterrupted flow and prevents pressure drops, making it ideal for high-velocity applications. Constructed from durable stainless steel with a hygienic design, it is suitable for food, chemical, plastics, and pharmaceutical industries. The magnet includes manual-clean and quick-clean options for easy maintenance, thereby protecting downstream equipment like rotary valves and blenders.
The MPI Pneumatic Tube Magnet is a compact magnetic separation system for pneumatic conveying lines handling dry powders and bulk materials. It features a powerful, rare-earth magnetic cartridge that effectively captures ferrous contaminants, protecting downstream equipment and ensuring product integrity without disrupting flow. Its tube-style design is cost-effective and space-efficient, suitable for small to medium systems, and provides low pressure drop while maximizing magnetic exposure. Made from hygienic stainless steel, it comes in both manual and quick-clean versions. It is ideal for food, plastics, pharmaceuticals, and powder processing industries, where cleanliness and compliance are crucial.
