Magnets Types, Factors, Installation
Suspended magnets are widely used to remove damaging tramp metals (ferrous/iron) from conveyed materials. These magnets improve
product purity and protect downstream crushers, mills, pulverizers and grinders, or remove sharp metal that can damage or tear

For many years Eriez has provided
oil–cooled electromagnets for heavy
duty tramp iron separation applications.
The parabolic shape of the field produced
by these magnets makes them ideal for
deep penetration of heavy burden
depths conveyed on troughed belts
or concentrated in a narrow flow.
