Housed Bullet Magnets are ideal for the removal of tramp iron - for example: nuts, bolts, washers, staples - from air blown or gravity fed pipelines. The magnets are generally installed at ingredient intake points and the primary stages of the process line.
The unit is designed to prevent tramp iron from damaging expensive process machinery, like mixers, blenders and screw feed conveyors. A high intensity magnetic bullet element is centrally mounted within a stainless steel housing. The design ensures that product flow is unaffected by the magnetic element.
The bullet incorporates Rare Earth Neodymium Iron Boron magnetic material which generates deep penetrating magnetic flux fields ensuring ferrous contamination is captured, whilst the angled nose cone assists in maintaining product integrity and flow during high speed product processing. Any attracted contamination finds sanctuary beneath the catchment ledges preventing 'wash off'.
To facilitate the removal of collected contamination the flow of product must be stopped or temporarily diverted from the magnet. Opening the access door and swinging the door mounted bullet away from the housing enables cleaning to be carried out, therefore preventing any potential danger of re-introducing contamination back into the process line. Larger bullet elements are mounted on a sliding carriage to facilitate the cleaning process.
