F1 Series- Electromagnetic Dry Separators

Series F1 electromagnetic dry separators can be configured with either Vane Type Grids or Wet Type Grids. Series F1 electromagnetic separators have efficiently removed fine ferromagnetic particles from a wide range of dry granular materials and powders for over 65 years. They provide economical solutions under many processing conditions. Magnetic background fields measured in the empty separating space (with pole pieces, but without the matrix in place) are over 700 Gauss in water-cooled models and over 500 Gauss in air-cooled models. Magnetic fields at the matrix edges, where separation occurs, are several times higher.

Models With Vane-Type Grids

Models With Vane-Type Grids: Series F1 electromagnetic separators with vane-type grids have been the standard for efficiently removing fine ferromagnetic particles from a wide range of dry granular materials and powders for over 65 years. Grids are made of cast iron or welded steel in various opening sizes. They can be plated or coated to accommodate a wide range of processing conditions. Separator models are available for suspension from plant structures or from a floor stand.

Models With Wet-Type Grids

Models With Wet-Type Grids: Series F1 electromagnetic separators for processing dry granular materials and powders can be equipped with stainless steel grids normally used for processing liquids, slurries and gases. Matrices comprised of wet-type grids have many times the cumulative length of collecting edges of matrices equipped with the vane-type grids. With a unique assembly of grids and a different vibration pattern, moderately free-flowing dry materials including powders can be more effectively processed. A single pass through a matrix of wet grids is equivalent to several passes through a matrix of vane-type grids.

1. Standard models are air-cooled. Water-cooled, higher power (HP) units and explosion-proof (XP) versions of each of the listed models conforming to the specifications shown above are available. These units are designated by model number and suffix, as 68V-HP, 68V-HP-XP, etc. Explosion proof models are manufactured to comply with requirements for equipment for use in CLASS I, DIVISION 1, GROUP D hazardous locations and CLASS II, DIVISION 1, GROUPS E, F, & G, dust ignition-proof indoor locations. Explosion proof models are not certified by any independent testing laboratory.
2. Three-digit model numbers designate units with multiple length separating chamber and matrix; e.g. Model 268V has separating chamber and matrix twice as long as Model 68V.
3. Customers may choose length of rod from top of separator within ranges shown.
4. Processing capacity varies with material characteristics such as particle size and shape, specific gravity, moisture content, etc.
