Candle Type Magnetic Separator (Horizontal)

Magnetic separation depends on size of the particle, viscosity of
fluid, magnetic filed density and time in contact witjh the magnetic
filed. When particles to be separated are fine, increasing contact time
is necessary. Candle type magnetic separator achieves this.

Fine magnetic dirt is attracted to the magnetic candle surface and is
pulled out of fluid with moving candles. The dirt collected is scraped
off on the scrapers placed above the fluid surface. A Conveyer under
the scrapers (or a chute in smaller models ) collects the dirt and lots
it to the bin outside the tank.







PERFORMANCE


Magnetic
candle separator is usually arranged for larger flow application, for
separation of fine dirt. Its performance is much better compared to a
drum type magnetic separator for reasons already narrated.
This separator can handle 15 micron magnetic particles from water based coolants.







ADVANTAGES AND LIMITATIONS






This is a very reliable simple separator.



This can effectively handle large flows.



For fine magnetic particles this type of separator is quite effective.



Quite useful to handle large quantities of magnetic particles.



This can easily handle chips up to 3 mm size.



This connot be used for smaller systems in the exising design (SAM is already working on effective units)
