Overband Suspended Permanent Magnet
Standard sizes available from stock - please ask. Eriez suspended permanent magnetic separators, also called overband are positioned over moving conveyor belts or chute, either in line or accros for the effective removal of ferrous contaminants from bulk product flows. Overband permanent magnets protects your up-stream machinery and ensure good quality end-products. Permanent magnets are also an low power consumption solution to magnetic separation. Eriez range include manual clean and self-clean overband magnet. They can be configured to suit belt width and burden depth. Our experienced engineering team will work with you to ensure you have the perfect magnet for your application.
Eriez offers two permanents magnetic field configurations, CP, OP and TP, providing different field strengths and depth of field.
Extracted ferrous matals must be removed from the magnet face - the unit`s separation efficiency would otherwise be reduced by an accumulation of metals on the magnet face. There are two available options for cleaning the magnet.
Manual Cleaning (MC)
For low levels of ferrous contamination, the magnet can be manually cleaned by wiping the magnet face. This can be easily done with a stripper plate (optional extra).
Self Cleaning (SC)
A moving continuous belt surrounds the magnet box. Ferrous material attracted by the magnet is held on the belt. As the belt moves clear of the magnetic field, ferrous materials fall away under gravity into bins for collection and disposal.
