Eriez’ Drum Separators remove both large and small pieces of iron contaminants from material processing lines. Powerful permanent magnets enable more efficient separation performance for a broader range of applications than ever before. The complete line includes standard models in diameters from 12 to 36 inches (305 to 915 mm), and widths from 12 to 60 inches (305 to 1525 mm). These units provide efficient separation on volumes up to 25,600 cubic feet (725 cubic meters) per hour. They provide years of trouble–free automatic removal of tramp iron from heavy flows of bulk materials, including large and highly abrasive materials.
As material reaches the drum, the magnetic field attracts and holds ferrous particles to the drum shell. As the drum revolves, it carries the material through the stationary magnetic field. The nonmagnetic material falls freely from the shell, while the magnetic particles are held firmly until they are carried out of the magnetic field.
Type CC Model Drum Separators have a unique “criss –cross” magnetic circuit. A powerful permanent magnetic field uniformly covers the entire drum width to ensure maximum tramp iron removal. The smooth stainless steel shell with single wiper strip assures positive tramp iron discharge and a minimum of product carryover on powdery or cohesive materials.
Rare Earth Drum Separators should be used for applications where a high degree of product purity is required.
