| | Oct 18, 2010 — Erie, Pa. — Eriez®, world authority in permanent magnetic technology, has once again raised the bar with the unveiling of its Xtreme™ Rare Earth Plate Magnets. Xtreme Rare Earth Plate Magnets are an ideal solution for food and pharmaceutical applications or when maximum product purity is required.
Xtreme Rare Earth Plate Magnets are continuously welded and carefully manufactured to contain no pits, cracks or crevices, in accordance with accepted sanitary practices. Xtreme Rare Earth Plate Magnets, commonly used in angled chutes or suspended above conveyors, remove contaminants from a wide variety of dry bulk or liquid products.
These separators, made with Erium™ 3000, a high quality (neodymium–boron–iron) permanent magnet power source, can reach out and attract weakly magnetic or very fine iron contaminants, and hold them so tightly that wipe off by–product flow is virtually eliminated. Bill Dudenhoefer, Manager-Separation Products, explains, “Erium 3000 develops a magnetic field that has up to five times the magnetic pull of conventional ceramic (barium ferrite) or Alnico (aluminum–nickel–cobalt) magnet materials.”
“Some contaminants can be micron size or weakly magnetic, so a very high power magnetic field is required to remove them,” says Dudenhoefer. “Xtreme Rare Earth Plate Magnets are perfect for these challenges.” He adds, “The Xtreme Rare Earth Plate Magnet is a prime example of Eriez’ commitment to continually developing stronger, more efficient separators to help customers protect processing equipment and improve product purity.”
The superior strength–to–size ratio of Xtreme Rare Earth Plate Magnets means they are easy to install and to swing out for cleaning. Standard units are suitable for temperatures up to 150° F (66°C). Special units are available for higher temperatures.
