High Magnetic Field Strength: Offers a range of background magnetic field strengths from 3,500 to 10,000 gauss for effective separation of fine iron and paramagnetic minerals from liquids and slurries.


Applications: Used to remove fine iron and paramagnetic minerals from non-metallic mineral slurries.


Efficient Separation: Higher separation efficiency than permanent magnetic separators by generating significant background magnetic field strength, and a high-magnetic field gradient on the matrix surface.


Back Flush Cleaning: Automated back flush cleaning cycle to clean captured contaminants off the matrix. Cycle times can be adjusted via the HMI to suit application needs.


Energy Efficiency: Utilizes highly efficient computer-designed coils paired with an air-over oil heat exchange to maintain optimal operating temperature.


Easy Maintenance: Includes a removable job crane for easy removal of the top pole and matrix assembly for maintenance and cleanings. This minimizes downtime and needs for additional infrastructure.


Controlled Operation: Can be fully automated using a control system with a Siemens S7-1200 PLC and HMI for managing cleaning frequency and parameters.


Valve Configurations: Available in 4-valve to 8-valve configurations to suit different applications.


Testing Facilities: Bunting offers controlled tests on laboratory-sized filters to confirm separation capabilities.

ABOUT

Electromagnetic Filters: Powerful Magnetic Separation Technology


Electromagnetic filters provide highly effective removal of fine iron and paramagnetic minerals from ceramic slips, glazes, and industrial mineral slurries. Key features include:


  • Generate strong magnetic fields up to 10,000 Gauss for superior separation efficiency
  • Remove problematic magnetic particles as small as 0-500 microns 
  • Automated cleaning cycles for continuous processing
  • Available in 3,500 to 10,000 Gauss models for different applications


How Electromagnetic Filters Work


  • Electromagnetic coil creates intense magnetic field in stainless steel matrix
  • Slurry pumped through matrix, magnetic particles attracted and captured
  • Periodic cleaning cycles flush out captured particles
  • Can be set up in pairs for non-stop operation


Key Benefits


  • More effective than permanent magnetic separators
  • Removes very fine iron and paramagnetic minerals
  • Improves purity of ceramic materials and industrial minerals
  • Automated operation with programmable controls


Common Applications


  • Cleaning ceramic glazes and slips
  • Purifying mineral slurries like silica sand, feldspar, kaolin, etc.
  • Removing contaminants from ball clay, calcium carbonate, talc


For industries requiring high-purity materials, electromagnetic filters offer powerful magnetic separation capabilities to remove even the finest magnetic contaminants. Their adjustable field strength and automated operation make them ideal for a wide range of ceramic and mineral processing applications.
