Magnetic Pulleys

RANGE OF APPLICATION

ELEKTROMAG Magnetic Pulleys are suitable for installation in

conveyor belt stretches and for separating iron pieces from conveyed
material. All iron pieces in the conveyed material are - as far as they are
magnetizable - seized by the magnetic field of the magnetic pulley and
separated.

ELEKTROMAG Magnetic Pulleys are used for all kinds of bulk

materials, such as brown and pit coal,coke,lime-stone,cement, rock salt,
potash, chamotte, blast furnace and steel mill slag, foundry sand, gravel,
sand, synthetic granulates, grain and feedstuff. They can also be fitted as
drive or return pulleys to the discharge end of rubber conveyor belts of
existing installations at a later stage.

ELEKTROMAG Magnetic Pulleys are mainly designed to remove

large iron pieces, such as bolts, screws, wire, strips and tools which
could damage conveyor belts, brake sieves, crushers or processing
machines.

Other types of separating magnets are available for separating fine iron.
In the event of slag separation they serve - depending on the granulation
- for parting magnetic and non-magnetic components.

METHOD OF OPERATION

The magnetic field produced is effective on the entire surface in the

range of the conveyor belt. The magnetizable iron pieces contained in the
conveyor material are influenced by the magnetic field and drawn on the
conveyor belt. The iron pieces follow the run of the conveyor Fbelt until

they loosen from the magnetic field and, parted from the conveyed
material, are discharged in the belt's run direction underneath the
magnetic pulley.

Note : The design, dimensions and specifications are subject to

alterations without prior notice due to constant development for better
performance.
