- Flowability and Strength Variations
- Product is pumped through the magnet where ferrous tramp metal collects on either an array of 1” diameter magnetic tubes or a single 3” diameter magnetic tube. The tramp metal collects behind the tubes in the direction of product flow to prevent tramp metal wash off. Non-magnetic particles are separated by gravity and collect in the sump located in the bottom of the magnet enclosure.
- Diameter Ranges
- Standard inlet / outlet sizes available from 1.5” diameter up to 12” diameter (HP model required for sizes over 4” diameter)
- Adaptable to Existing Lines
- Easy installation into existing line using sanitary tri-clover, threaded or ANSI 150 pound inlet and outlet flanges
- Tube Configuration for Easy Cleaning
- Exclusive tube configuration for easy removal of ferrous tramp metal from magnetic tubes
- Beauty Rings Protect Tubes from Impact
- Welded tube support located on the bottom of the magnet element
- Ensures proper magnetic protection by eliminating bending of the tubes inwards due to product flow or handling during cleaning
- Increases magnet life by preventing broken welds on end of tubes caused by impact during cleaning
- Detectable Gasket Material
- Metal detectable magnet housing gasket standard (Buna material)
- Maximum Pressure Levels
- Designed for operating at up to 150 PSI maximum pressure (at 248°F) depending on model size
- High-Temperature Rating
- Designed for operating temperatures up to 356°F depending on model configurations
- USDA Certified
- USDA approved certified sanitary (USDA AMS NSF / ANSI / 3-A14159-1 2002) available

The tramp metal collects at the downstream side of the magnetic tubes, preventing tramp metal “wash-off” during the continuous product flow around and through the magnetic field without restricting the product flow. Additionally, non-magnetic particles are trapped, by gravity, in a sump beneath the magnetic element.
