This revolutionary model has been especially designed for applications which require a combination of low overall height, a powerful magnet system in the product flow, and a minimal risk of bridge-building. The increased distance bbetween the magnetic units as compared to conventional grid magnets renders this system suitable for use with products which do not flow freely and/or readily adhere to or accumulate on surfaces. This system is also ideally suited to the separation of iron particles from coarser products or hygroscopic raw materials.

The magnetic units are integrated in stainless-steel sleeves, which are also reffered to as extractors. The peaked upper surface of each sleeve reduces the risk of the accumulation of product and, ultimately, bridge-forming.

The cleaning process is semi-automatic. The product flow is interrupted. After releasing the quick-action clamps the magnet system and stainless-steel sleeves are slid from the unit using the handles fitted to the sides of the intermediate panel. Once the entire magnet unit has been slid from the housing the magnetic units can be slid out of thhe sleeves using the handles on the front panel. The iron particles are then released by the sleeves without falling into the housing, and can be collected. The magnet system is then returned to its original position, and is once again ready for use.
