Self-Cleaning and Manual


Manual		Self-Cleaning

Deep penetrating electromagnets, incorporating all of the latest innovations in coil

design, allow Walker's electromagnetic suspended separators to remove both large and small tramp metal from deep burdens on fast-moving conveyors. The separators are designed for continuous operation at peak performance.

Electromagnetic suspended separators are available in manual and self-cleaning designs. Manually cleaned magnets are discharged electrically. Self-cleaning magnets can be mounted in line with the material flow or transverse to remove the ferrous materials over the side of the conveyor.
