Wet Drum Permanent Magnetic Separator

Gravity Magnetics manufactures wet drum separator which is used to remove very fine magnetizable components from low concentration, low-viscosity liquids. The wet drum separator is intended for use in the metal processing industry and for the treatment of pre-concentrates extracted from the high gradient magnetic filter. In wet drum separator, around 90% of the grain sizes ranging from 1 µm to 1000 µm can be separated as sludge.

General Principle:

The liquid flows through a semicircular separating chamber beneath a stainless steel drum to which the magnetisable particles are attracted. The strong, high-gradient magnetic field is created by a cylinder consisting of permanent magnetic discs positioned within the drum. These special permanent magnets generate particularly high field gradients which are necessary for successful separation, as is the need with all magnetic separators.

For recovering magnetic / ferrosilicon in dense media plants and iron ores, wet drum separators are primarily used. They remove contaminants from the product stream, increasing product purity and plant productivity. In applications where product purity is most essential, wet drum separators can use powerful rare earth magnets which can remove very fine and weak contaminants even from dense materials.

How It Works:

The liquid flows through a semicircular separating chamber beneath a stainless steel drum. The cylinder consisting of permanent magnetic discs is positioned within the drum, attracting the magnetizable particles. By rotating the drum, the filter cake is lifted out of the slurry and away from the magnetic field.

Salient Features:

Wet drum magnets have high magnetic recovery and discharge.

The feed slurry recovers the magnetics.

Available in single or multi-drum applications.

Permanent magnet assembly eliminates coil burn-outs.

The magnet / pole elements are bolted to a mild steel shaft.

The drum is made from thick stainless steel for long life.

Wet drum separators are available in different configurations, such as single drum, double drum, and multiple drums. In double-drum configurations, two separators are arranged back to back with a common feed box.

Applications:

Glass Industry

Chemical Industry

Plastic Industry

Mining Industry

Food Industry

Pharmaceutical Industry

Foundry Industry
