Eriez® ProGrade® Round Grate Magnets Provide a Fast and Economical Solution to Ferrous Contamination Challenges

These all–stainless steel units are installed by simply placing the grate in the hopper with the ends of the magnetic tubes or tie bars resting against the sides. Products flow between the one-inch diameter tube magnets that are spaced on two-inch tube centers and held rigidly in place.

ProGrade Round Permanent Magnetic Grate Magnets are offered in three magnetic strengths: Ceramic, Rare Earth and Xtreme® Rare Earth. Ceramic-powered separators are an ideal choice for removing medium to large tramp metal such as bolts, nuts and hand tools. Rare Earth-powered separators are designed to remove small ferrous contaminants such as pins, brads and clips. Xtreme Rare Earth-powered separators are best at removing weakly magnetic fine ferrous contamination.

ProGrade Round Permanent Magnetic Grate Magnets are available in eight sizes, ranging from six to 20 inches in diameter. All units feature glass bead surface finish. Rare Earth and Xtreme Rare Earth models are designed to withstand temperatures up to 150 degrees Fahrenheit.

For ultimate protection against tramp metals, Eriez recommends pairing ProGrade Round Permanent Magnetic Grate Magnets with Eriez Metal Separators or Detectors. Working in conjunction, the magnet removes the ferrous contamination while the metal detector focuses on any ferrous missed by the magnet as well as nonferrous metals, i.e. aluminum, copper, brass, stainless steel. Eriez separation specialists work with customers to create the ideal “Double Team” to provide the greatest protection against all types of metal contamination in their product or process flow.
