Application
Suspended electromagnets have a very deeply penetrating holding field. This makes them very suitable for larger capacities. Electromagnetic suspended magnets can be switched on and off. This simplifies cleaning (when the magnet is switched off the Fe particles fall off the block), and they are more flexible as they can be activated whenever the process requires their use. However, electromagnetic suspended magnets do consume power, and they require a control box. They are also less compact than permanent suspended magnets: a sizeable electric coil is needed in order to generate a powerful magnetic field. This makes them less suitable for mobile installations and somewhat more expensive than permanent suspended magnets.
