Liquid Processing Plate Magnet

MPI Liquid Plate Magnets are inline magnetic separators engineered to eliminate ferrous contaminants from liquids, slurries, and semi-liquid materials across food processing, pharmaceutical, chemical, and industrial sectors. By employing a high-strength magnetic plate, these units effectively capture and retain tramp metal, guaranteeing product integrity, equipment safeguarding, and enhanced process efficiency.

The powerful magnetic field efficiently attracts both fine and coarse ferrous contaminants, ensuring elevated product purity. A baffle system, along with an enlarged trap area, prolongs the contact time between contaminants and the magnetic plate, bolstering efficiency. Designed to uphold continuous flow while optimizing contaminant capture, these systems prevent blockages and pressure loss. They are also resistant to corrosion and offer long-term reliability, even in high-moisture or acidic conditions. Quick-release clamps and a user-friendly plate design facilitate rapid, tool-free maintenance, minimizing downtime. By preventing metal contamination, they reduce the risk of pump damage, production halts, and costly repairs. These magnets are available in various sizes and strengths to meet specific processing needs.

Inline Installation & Product Flow Optimization

The Plate Liquid Trap Magnet is directly integrated into horizontal liquid or slurry processing lines. An optimally placed internal baffle directs the product flow toward the magnetic plate, ensuring maximum exposure to the magnetic field. The trap housing is enlarged to decelerate product flow, providing contaminants more time for effective capture by the magnetic plate.

Magnetic Contaminant Capture

As liquids, purees, or fibrous slurries flow through the trap, the high-intensity magnetic plate creates a robust magnetic field that draws and securely retains ferrous contaminants. The flat plate design maximizes the magnetic surface area in contact with metal contaminants for efficient separation. Captured contaminants remain fixed on the magnetic surface, preventing re-entry into the product stream.

Gravity-Assisted Collection & Separation

Non-magnetic particles naturally settle in the sump at the trap's base, further enhancing overall separation efficiency. This dual-action separation approach ensures that both ferrous and non-ferrous contaminants are effectively eliminated from the product stream.

Easy Cleaning & Maintenance

Once product flow is halted, cleaning is straightforward and quick: Disengage the tri-clover clamp to access the magnetic plate. Lift the magnetic element out of the trap housing. Gently remove the accumulated ferrous contaminants from the plate’s surface. Reinstall the plate and secure the trap to resume operation. The horizontal mounting configuration with the magnetic element facing upward simplifies accessibility and maintenance.

Ensuring Product Purity & Processing Efficiency

MPI Liquid Plate Magnets offer a robust, low-maintenance solution for ferrous contaminant removal in liquid and slurry processing systems. Their optimized flow design, strong magnetic separation, and easy cleaning procedures make them an ideal choice for industries that demand high product purity and equipment protection.
